All Restaurants in Leticia
Restaurants Food is a bit more here in the heart of the jungle, though you’ll still be able to find a comida corriente (here called a menu) for under $2. At the municipal market you’ll find not only fresh produce and meats, but also inexpensive eateries, some with a river view, though care should be taken with drinks (daily 6 a.m.-4 p.m. Calle 8, half-block from the river). All along Calle 8 are general stores and supermarkets. Bakeries scent every corner it seems, and is a great place to grab a cheap breakfast or snack. At night a tent city of grill eateries sets up on the corner of Avenida Internacional and Calle 7. To stock up on purified water, Gaseosas Leticia has a 24-hour / seven-day dispenser. If you bring your own clean container, five liters costs $0.30 and 20 liters $0.60. It also sells full garrafones (jugs): five liters $1.60, 20 liters $9.75 (Calle 8, between Carreras 8 and 9). While in Leticia, don’t be timid to try some of the local delicacies, like mojojoy (a worm) or pirarucú and gamitana fishes. Another regional fish you might encounter on your plate is acarahuasú, otherwise known to aquarium enthusiasts as the Oscar (Cichlidae astronauts ocellatus). Nightlife Leticia has a pretty active nightlife scene, though most in-town establishments are closed Tuesday nights. The most grooving nights are Wednesday to Saturday. There are all types of places, from the sit-down-and-rap bars to cumbia-samba-vallenato-reggaetón discos. Ones that are open all the week and until the new day can be found on Avenida Internacional, heading to the border. However, be advised: these double as strip joints and brothels.
