Restaurante Hostal La Gata Carola — Restaurant in Quindío

Restaurant review They recommended that we get the trout, so we did. They didn’t tell us that there were no patacones, they just brought the trout without them. Obviously we asked where are the patacones and then they apologised and brought chips to make up for it, explaining that they had run out of patacones.

However my penne w chicken n mushrooms was absolutely delicious 😋 Portions were huge. Service was barely okay, he spent most of his time in the street n I think he overcharged us. Maybe sometime we'll check it out again for lunch, do not...
