Medellin, particularly Provenza, is well known for its gastronomic scene, bringing together chefs, recipes, and tastes from across the county as well as fusions with international styles/ flavors. It's hard to choose, but we compiled a list of places we've been to and enjoyed as recommendations!

We also encourage you to try some traditional Colombian foods such as bunuelos, pan de queso, empanadas, chorizo, arepas, chicharron and the typical Colombian dish 'bandeja paisa' (it is Colombia after all!).
