Andres Carne de Res
Posted by Kristen on Jul 29, 2009 in Bogota, Family Fun, Friendship | 8 commentsEven before in arriving in Bogota we were hearing about how we had to go to Andres! It has been on our list but we didn’t go until this past weekend. It is a wild restaurant about 40 mins outside of Bogota and to be honest I really can’t even begin to describe it! We took some pictures! It is Colombian food but the best of it! Seth had a steak that I think was the best since we arrived! The restaurant is HUGE…to give you an idea we heard that they have 400 servers! It’s a giant maze of different rooms decorated floor to ceiling! It would never be possible in the US because of our standards for fire safety! Jackson was so overloaded by the end of our lunch with all of the excitement!
The menu in a metal box. We had to scroll through to see the choices!
Jackson ringing the bell at our table
fresh strawberry juice!
Outdoor kids area with carpentry, painting, clay, ball area, puppets, face painting. If Jackson had been older it would have been amazing for him!
squishing the baby belly. he was ready for nap before we even got seated!
the tables all had bowls of mango, coconut, little fruits that look like orange tomatoes, and oranges.
parade of people in costumes coming through the restaurant
old eye glasses sealed into the wall
when our food arrived so did the bibs!
my ajiaco…traditional colombian chicken and potato soup served with rice, avacado, capers and cream.
Our left overs came in a painted wooden box and a real metal soup pot!
our bill arrived in a wooden box with a flashlight and a magnified glass!
If any of you want to make a last min trip to Bogota we will take you!
That is the coolest place I have ever seen! wow – I am salivating over the strawberry juice! Love seeing the baby belly!

Hi,
Amazing place.
I’m guessing that maybe the “little fruits that look like orange tomatoes” were kumquats:

Aunt Susie,
Funny you mention kumquats. Those are not actually but every orange fruit here that Seth doesn’t know he identifies as a kumquat.
