La Puerta Falsa — Historic Bogotá Lunch
Bogotá, Colombia
About This Activity
La Puerta Falsa on Calle 11 in La Candelaria is the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Bogotá. The tiny two-table room has barely changed in two centuries. Come for the legendary ajiaco, tamales, and hot chocolate with cheese — the quintessential Bogotá breakfast or lunch. The place is always packed by mid-morning. Arrive early or expect to wait. Cash only, extremely affordable, and totally authentic.
