Shots of Bogota – Andres Carne de Res: Fabio and I

Outside of Bogota in the area of Chia is a strip of lively cantinas. As part of the Bogota tour we hit Andres, named after the neurotic and creative genius owner. The place is a sensory overload—you don’t know where to look as there are signs, gadgets, recycled art, knick-knacks and things posted, hanging, and tucked into every corner of the place. The menu comes in a metal box, the bill comes in a treasure box with a newspaper flag to indicate that you have paid and drinks arrive in thin wooden bowls. The atmosphere is festive and is the place for everyone; movie stars, DJs, families, friends, the hip and trendy youth, and people with ‘mode’.
