In this episode of the Nearshore Cafe podcast, Brian welcomes guests Ricardo Marquez and Jonathan Ruiz, who discuss the culture, food, and business in Bogota, Colombia.
Ricardo provides insights on life in Bogota, including the weather, traffic, and public transportation and Jonathan shares his experiences growing up in different neighborhoods in the city and also talks about the influences of Colombian culture on the expat community.
They mention the Disney movie "Encanto" as a great example of Colombia's culture. The diverse culinary scene in Bogota is discussed, with traditional dishes and soups being popular. The guests emphasize the unique blend of European, Spanish, and African influences in Colombian culture.
They recommend a restaurant called Andres Carne de Res in Bogota and talk about the misconceptions of Colombia and its transformation over the years. Ricardo shares his journey in the technology industry, including his education and the opportunities it opened up for him. Jonathan mentions that Miami is a great place for Colombian restaurants, but outside of South Florida, the options are different.
The best Colombian food Ricardo had is in Queens, New York. Pittsburgh also has a good food scene, with places like El Cielo offering a unique take on Colombian cuisine.
If they had $50 to spend on something food-related, they would buy leather crafts, colorful accessories, and hammocks from Cali, Colombia.
When it comes to business, Colombia has a talented pool of professionals and entrepreneurs with a strong work ethic and passion. The infrastructure in Colombia also supports successful businesses.
