July 21, 2019

A couple of days ago a good friend of mine invited me to have a burger with him at a place called TDT – Tierra De Todos in La Flora here in Cali. Initially, I was a little hesitant to go. I don’t usually drive 20 minutes through rush hour to eat a burger – something that can be had

Feeling lazy or have an empty fridge? Or maybe your hotel doesn’t offer breakfast – and if they do, maybe it’s the universal continental breakfast consisting of the whitest and driest bread, margarine, factory-made jam with less than 5% real fruit and instant coffee?

Restaurants·Things to do

A new, futuristic building on a corner in Santa Monica houses Chilli Chang, a new, 3-story Asian bistro with a rooftop bar. From the outside, the place looks cool. On the inside, I found the decor to be a little dull. That shouldn’t keep you from going though. The food
