La Cocina was hands down the best restaurant we ate at during our week in Cartagena (it blew the nearby highly-rated Rum Box restaurant out of the water). We had the bandeja de entradas which was an assortment of five tasting dishes that came with...plantain balls and a light bread on the side. The dishes included different types of cerviche, stuffed peppers, cured eggplant and dips. We loved this selection so much we came back twice. The owner-waiter was very courteous, efficient and knowledgeable. This is the sort of place that foodies will swoon over. Besides, when you see that Gabriel Garcia-Marquez was a frequent patron, you know they must be doing something right.More
