Restaurante Hatoviejo
Indulge your senses in Medellin’s most famous traditional Colombian restaurant.
The Lowdown.
It’s not always great when a restaurant becomes a tourist attraction but, Restaurante Hatoviejo, the traditional Colombian food specialist, hasn’t let fame go to its head and continues to do what it has been doing so well since it first opened in 1982.
If ain’t broke don’t fix it and a colonial house high up on the hill serving traditional culinary fare is difficult to beat when it comes to enjoying Colombian food in Medellin.
The setting in Las Palmas next to the Hotel Intercontinental is the best venue. Although, they have added some extra outlets including a restaurant downtown and a couple of mall outlets.
The typical cazuela, bean stew, is a keeper and they also serve up a special made with green beans on weekends and holidays. If you fancy testing yourself with a but-gusting, bandeja paisa for breakfast they open at 08:00.
