Antioqueñitas
A bite-sized tribute to Antioquia’s culinary soul: crunchy mini arepas layered with guacamole, artisanal chorizo, and a touch of ripe plantain purée.
Chicharrón del Valle
Golden pork belly meets coastal zing—ceviche-marinated and topped with our famous house-pickled ají. A rich, crunchy bite straight from Valle del Cauca, with a spicy twist.
Santa Marta Bites
A refined twist on a Colombian beach favorite—jumbo shrimp in a creamy salsa rosada, served canapé-style for the perfect bite. Inspired by the sun-kissed shores of Santa Marta.

Empanadas
Three golden, crispy empanadas filled with juicy, slow-cooked pulled beef, seasoned to perfection. Served with our house-made signature sauce – bold, smoky, and unforgettable. One bite, and you’ll know why this trio is one of our star dishes.
Mains
La Reina de Cartagena
Slow-braised beef in a rich, spiced sauce inspired by the Caribbean flavors of Cartagena. Served with silky sweet plantain purée for a perfect balance of savory and sweet. A dish that tells a story in every bite.
La Cazuela de la Jefa
This is the dish that made our chef a household name in New Zealand. A rich and hearty Colombian-style casserole made with red kidney beans, sweet corn, ripe plantain, crispy pork belly (chicharrón), tender pulled brisket, and fresh coriander. Served with white rice and avocado on the side, it’s full of bold flavors and the true taste of home – made by a proud paisa woman who puts her heart into every bite.
Tamarind-Glazed
Cartagena Ribs
Juicy pork ribs glazed in our house-made tamarind sauce, inspired by the bold, tropical flavors of Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Served with traditional coleslaw and crispy papas bravas – sweet, smoky, and absolutely mouthwatering.
Dessert
Café y Ron de Antioquia
A luxurious flan made with premium Colombian coffee and the finest aged rum, capturing the bold and robust flavors of Antioquia. This rich dessert combines the best of Colombia’s heritage – smooth, silky, and unforgettable.
Tropical Three-Milk Cake
A luxurious twist on the beloved Colombian torta de tres leches, this version is paired with tropical fruits like passion fruit, papaya, and pineapple, and topped with a delicate meringue.
