Roberto
"...We cooked snacks, mains, and desserts that touched on different parts of Colombian food culture, all while joking around and sampling whatever was ready first. Nothing felt stiff or theatrical; it was just honest cooking with a group of travelers who slowly relaxed as the drinks kept coming. By the end of the night, I felt like I’d had a crash course in Colombian flavors without ever leaving the kitchen."
