La Totuma Corrida — Restaurant in Bogota, Capital District

Went here for dinner in anticipation of the good reviews that have been given. Should have paid attention when no one on the surrounding tables ordered sushi. However, we did not see that until it was too late. Sadly, the sushi has a very bad taste, we suspected that the rice might be old as you can hardly see the grains (it is more like a paste), and that the other produce might not be fresh. The restaurant itself is very cute but do not go here for sushi. We left, anticipating a night of stomach issues.

Sweet sauces on the food (like in Colombian kitchen), big slices of fried sweet platano. The tempura isn't fried in tempura batter, there's a strong taste of local deepfried oil. And the service is often nowhere to be found, they're downstairs, while you...
