Asadero Capachos

Traditional BBQ

If your itinerary doesn’t include a hop down to Villavicencio and the Colombian plains, you can still try mamona at Capachos, the typical BBQ from the llanos. A young calf, not yet weaned, is split and placed on varas (stakes) and slow cooked to succulent perfection ($7.25-8.25). Capachos also grills pork and mojarra fish. Your plank of meat comes with the traditional sides of roasted plantain, potatoes and yucca, and various sauces to dunk your meat.

From Thursday to Sunday there’s live llanera music. Open daily from noon to 6 p.m., Friday and Saturday until 7 p.m.
