Welcome to the Over Seasoned Guide to:

Bogota

Colombia
Perched in the Andes, Bogotá is blending old-world comfort with new-school culinary ambition.

High in the Andes, Bogotá is a city of contrast—colonial plazas shadowed by glass towers, rainy mornings followed by sunlit afternoons, and traditional flavors colliding with bold, new energy. Its food scene reflects that duality: hearty mountain dishes like ajiaco stew meet modern takes on Colombian staples in chic, design-forward spaces.

This is a capital city in the middle of a culinary renaissance. You’ll find arepas on every corner, coffee that rivals any in the world, and an exploding crop of chefs reimagining what Colombian cuisine can be. Bogotá isn’t just catching up—it’s defining its own flavor on its own terms.

Ep 32: When Dinner Stares Back: Trying Guinea Pig | Bogotá

What happens when dinner stares back at you? 🐹👀 In this episode, we dive fork-first into a guinea pig feast—complete with crispy ears, accidental decapitations, and some questionable flavor profiles (hint: hamster cage vibes).Is it a duck? A rabbit? A popcorn-loving rodent? We’re not sure, but we’re eating it anyway. Along the way, we share big plans for 2025, including trying crocodile, emu, and maybe even horse (but only in Italy, obviously).Warning: This video contains a lot of chewing noises, cultural appreciation, and terrible jokes. Stay salty, laugh hard, and subscribe for more culinary chaos! 🍽️😂

From the legendary pastrami sandwiches at Katz’s to overpriced caviar bumps, we explore what makes people flock to the Big Apple for a bite—and whether it’s all just a brilliantly marketed illusion.Join us for a hilarious and irreverent conversation as we break down the myths, the must-tries, and the total misses of NYC’s culinary scene. Plus, we share some of our own food brainwash confessions (yes, we’ve been there too).

Chichería Demente
This is one of our favorite spots in Bogotá—why?
Café Bar Universal
A go-to whenever we travel to Bogotá.
Mesa Franca
Fetuccini Achiotado is often on our mind - camerón, fonda de crustáceos, megas de madre, salsa macha
Coffee Stylers
Coffee Stylers is serving up single-origin sorcery like bourbon rosado with wild fermentation twists... and somehow also doubling as a branding agency? Yep, they’ve got the vibes and the visuals.
Libertario Coffee Roasters
Colombian coffee culture is something special. And when a cafe like Libertario is your neighborhood spot, you’d be smiling too.
Jaguar Coffee
This whole place is a vibe. Go to Jaguar for the quality coffee AND top-notch education.
