Ajiaco Dinner — Bogotá's Iconic Soup
Bogotá, Colombia
About This Activity
Ajiaco is the soul food of Bogotá — a hearty soup made with three types of native potato, corn, chicken, and the herb guascas. Served with a dollop of crema, capers, and avocado on the side, it's both warming at altitude and deeply flavorful. Every Bogotano has a favorite spot; classic options include La Puerta Falsa in La Candelaria (the oldest restaurant in Bogotá, open since 1816), or modern takes at restaurants in the Usaquén and Chapinero neighborhoods.
