Colombia's big box superstore. The quality is good, and you will notice a significant difference in your receipt if you do your weekly shopping here as opposed to Carulla or Carrefour. Keep in mind that it is often difficult to find imported products at Exito. For a list of stores in Colombia, go to the website's homepage and scroll down to the bottom of the page to "puntos de venta".

Some of the most gourmet Colombian cuisine out there. No details are spared in these small portions that hail from Colombia's exotic coast. The menu includes such typical ingredients that they have included a glossary. Luckily, the service is impeccable and the waiters are extremely helpful when you order. If you feel the urge to dance after you finish your dinner, head next door to the Bardeleo (same owners), where you can frequently find great local bands and DJs.

Kind of like a toned-down Andres Carne de Res. Just like the name suggests, you will eat your meat surrounded by toys. It can definitely get boisterous, but there is no more rumba (dancing and music) thanks to the sleepy neighbors.
