At Harry Sasson's celebrated Bogotá restaurant, indulge in exquisite Colombian cuisine that seamlessly blends flavors and offers a vibrant, memorable dining experience.
"Harry Sasson is perhaps Colombia’s most famous chef. His namesake restaurant, now in its third decade, is known for its service, consistency, ambiance, and quality ingredients. Expect simple, well-prepared food utilizing traditional, Colombian cooking elements, including a wood-burning stove and a charcoal grill. Start with the blue cheese pan de yuca and arepa de huevo, before moving on to the main event: large cuts of meat, like the wood-fired sobrebarriga, which is flank steak served with arracacha (an Andean root vegetable). Share side dishes like the patacones with avocado cream (fried plantain), sauteed green beans with ginger and garlic, or the spicy corn kernels in smoked butter. Then try a few desserts with one of the many coffee offerings." - Liliana López Sorzano
"Chef Harry Sasson is nothing short of an institution in Colombia’s culinary realm, one of the people responsible for having reactivated a local interest in haute cuisine. Mixed-grill aficionados will thrill equally to his langoustines (with mushrooms and cashews in a sweet-and-sour sauce) as they will in the sweetbreads (done in parsley, garlic, and oregano). But you’ve also got the perennial house-smoked grouper, or duck that’s cooked twice to make sure every piece achieves just the right consistency. A great wine list and a merry mood overall make any dinner at this historic residence on Carrera 9 a memorable one. By Travesías"
