By Lorraine Caputo

Tucked in a quiet corner across from the Parque de los Novios is Donde Chcucho, one of Santa Marta’s premier gourmet restaurants. It takes pride in specializing in delicacies of old Italy. Pasta does plays a major role on this menu. There are six types of noodles and eight sauces, as well as cannelloni, ravioli and four versions of lasagna, plus risottos ($9.50-16) and antipastos ($9.50-17.50). Seafood is also a principal actor, whether in an antipasto, pasta, risotto or rice. It can also play a solo part (as can chicken or beef), with scant potato sides ($12-38). Donde Chucho also has an El Rodadero branch (Carrera 2 16-39, Tel.: 5-423-7521 / 422-1752).
