The best restaurants Barichara

One of the finest gastronomic experiences in the country. Rafael Buitrago's masterful cuisine pays sublime homage to Santander's traditions. Together with his team, the Chef works with local produce and sublimates it through technique. In the kitchen, a symphony, in the plate, poetry where risk-taking is great but hyper-mastered. Here, goat's cheese is confit and roasted, hazelnut butter is scented with sage and walnuts or with ant, and beet is smoked. For dessert, a moving tribute to the Chef's grandmother. It's worthy of a Michelin star.

At Esteban's, there's no doubt about it: they know how to marry Mediterranean and Colombian flavors! Since 2009, this friendly, colorful address has been cooking fresh produce grown by local farmers. For starters, opt for an antipasti plate, then try the generously topped pizzas - you'll be pleasantly surprised! The pastas, made on site, are also unanimously appreciated: pesto, Neapolitan or Mediterranean with a good dose of Parmesan. For a meal in a friendly, artisanal setting, with an open kitchen on a relaxing patio.
