COLOMBIAN FOOD is crazy 🇨🇴 What to Eat in Colombia!

🇨🇴 There's CHEESE in EVERYTHING!!

Trying traditional Colombian food on our own DIY Colombia food tour was always going to happen. We didn't realize that different regions in Colombia had such different sorts of foods.
Today we are in Bogota where they add cheese to almost everything (Including their ice cream) and we are eating our way around this huge city. We also try a drink that was made illegal by the government decades ago!

It's pretty safe to say with a country this diverse this will NOT be our last food tour day in Colombia.

La Puerta Falsa restaurant is from 1816 and apparently has a pretty interesting history. The story goes that back in the day, whenever Colombia had a big celebration to put on the preists would ask some of the prominent local women to help. One very prominent woman wasn’t asked as she expected to be so she instead planned a meal for a lot of the people helping with the festival, she invited everyone except the priest. When he heard he got so angry and told her that if she was to cook for the the people involved withthe fesitval it should be for everyone involved. She declined and instead decided to cook her delicious food as close to the priest as possible and asked her husband to purchase a property as close to the cathedral as he could. She opened her restaurant on July 16th 1816, the very same day as the festival. The smell of the food enticed everyone around and angered the priest daily form then on! It’s now been owned through 7 generations of the same family!

Spending a day in La Candelaria seems an enjoyable thing to do. Thanks for sharing your gastronomical adventures.

The Arepa is a bit sweet because it is an arepa boyacence from Boyaca, it is made with cuajada instead of cheese that is what is made before cheese. There are multiple types of arepas in colombia an venezuela but the one you tried is of a very specific department. It is my favorite :) Also try Arepas de choclo/cachapas, arepas santandereanas, arepitas antioqueñas, de mais peto, arepas de huevo, arepitas dulces and of course all the venezuelan arepas that have a corn base and they open them and add a ton of different filling which are delicious :) Hugs and kisses from Bogota!

[SammyandTommy]

[yanetthomas]

New to your channel and I’ve been binge watching your video
When are you guys doing Q&A ?

[benburns]

The big fruit that you described with a spiky skin I think was Jack fruit.

[juliannedean]

Interesting food tour. Not sure about all the cheese in things that shouldn’t have cheese. It’s a shame you couldn’t do a couple of things you wanted but it looked like a fun day anyway. Miss you both, love you, mum.xx❤️

El queso se parte en pequeños trozos y se agrega al chocolate bien caliente para que el queso se derrita

[alvaroceballos]

I’m Colombian, and I can’t stand the cheese in my fruit salad, it’s just so weird. I prefer it with my arepas instead.

[AnaLopez-iddd]

It was ilegal, because Spanish people wanted to sell whisky in the Colony. But everybody use to prepare Chicha . So they decide prohibited the Chicha

[ibrahimmourtada]

Wish you’d convert all prices to USD as well to give us a better reference. Some older videos only have costs in local currency.

Chicha was a liquor for centuries, from pre-hispanic tribes that lived those mountains, and by 1949, it was forbidden due to "public health concerns" and it was demonized but the truth is high class beer manufacturers and local authorithies wanted the people "not to get sooo drunk with these fermented liquor", so then beer became as a "noble choice" to drink... and also make Bavaria (first and only brewer) a great income company. Within the years, not only was the first huge company in Colombia (the 1st one with more than 1000 employees), founded by german inmigrants more than 130 years ago, but also made its owners billionaires. Now its under control of belgian Anheuser-Busch. Fortunately, chicha recipes are maintained and are broader than ever.

[antonioperez]

NOT mozzarella. It's called "queso campesino", and it is a very basic, mildly salty cheese. Mexicans make a similar cheese called "queso fresco".

[JordanandEmily]

Be honest - would you try hot chocolate with cheese in it?!
Or a fruit salad with cheese?! 😂
