Leonor Espinosa is a well-known chef in Colombia who has spent a great deal of her life learning about Colombia’s culinary heritage, traveling around the country acquiring knowledge on various products, dishes and styles of preparation not to mention a deep respect for local products and producers. In her kitchen she consciously integrates them to create a cutting edge menu which is ground breaking with quite peculiar ingredients and tastes even for the locals.
Leonor forms a mother/daughter team with her daughter Laura Hernández-Espinosa who is the sommelier. The restaurant is located in downtown Bogotá and inspires a laid back elegant feel with its high ceilings, organic materials and reams of natural light flowing in. We found the restaurant ideal for both business and pleasure.
