La pescadería, Ceviches y Piqueos — Restaurant in Cartagena

What a fortunate misfortune that Avianca would not check in our luggage until 4 hours before the flight. Being required to hang around the airport gave us the fortune to seek a restaurant to hang out in for our lunch. Wow. 14 sears inside and a kitchen that’s smaller than my bathroom at home.

The waiter taught me to eat the sauce with the rice and it was fantastic. It’s expensive in Colombia standard but its big portion and quality of food do make up for it. It’s a small place and you need patience though. I don’t mind it that much as I like to take...
