Gorgeous little hidden patisserie in what seems to be the inside an apartment building. Great cakes, bread, breakfasts, and coffee. It is lovely. Closed on Sundays!

Cool, unassuming coffee shop. Sandwiches are pretty good, but you can also have drink. Wifi generally works.

My favorite restaurant in Bogotá. The chef is awesome (his name is Tomas), and the dishes are very original. Make sure to try the Raviolis and the Lulada, although everything is great here.

This is one of a kind. Crepes artesanal. If you fancy coming to a Crepes and Waffles, should check this one out. Different menu and presentation than the others, generally for the better.

Bogota's best known little secret, in the middle of La Candelaria. Almojábanas, chocolate, tamales: do what the locals have been for centuries now.

Drinks & Nightlife
Apparently this is the bar where all good nights end. I'm not a regular, but this joint opens late, has good musical numbers and gets the right crowd. Probably the only bar on Zona T worth your while.

Salsa joint. There are many locations for Galeria Cafe Libro in Bogotá, but this is the closest one to the flat. Should check it out if you fancy salsa music, even if its just to watch people dancing.

The roof top restaurant at this hotel is worth a check. Kind of expensive, but the view is awesome. Specializes in Burguers. This is where the beautiful people come before heading out into the night.

The bohemian go-to place in the city center. Owned by a couple of french people, its offer and public are very diverse. It's kind of refreshing, since Bogotá tends to be uppity. I loved it myself.

Parque de la 93 is a recent invention, but it has become the center of Bogota's posh and costly 'Norte'. Lots of business, restaurants, cafes, around a park that doesn't really offer that much more.

One of the stations for Bogota's mass transport system. If you need to get to the airport or the city center, this is the fastest and cheapest way. Beware of rush hour, though. It can get crowded!!
