Hallacas exceeded every expectation

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Hallacas made with real commitment to Queso de mano fresh cheese and technique. The hearty and comforting result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.

hallacas Christmas preparation is a multi-day family tradition where the whole extended family participates. The a Colombian-Venezuelan border town restaurant was exactly right for this kind of eating. chicha de arroz was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
