Street-food in Colombia

I love food! All kinds, in all shapes and sizes and flavors. While I'm in our hometown I indulge in absolutely everything...but street food, oh! how I love it! It is fascinating to see the many little carts of fresh fruits or the converted bicycles that now happen to be ovens as well.

Clockwise: Papaya and pineapple, either cut in small pieces or big slices, pandebonos, chontaduros on the red tray, the yellow paper cones contain roasted peanuts, the see through plastic bags have peanuts and raisins or sweetened peanuts.

This little cart sells everything for a good breakfast. Coffee, pandebonos, hojaldras, and buñuelos.

This one is a fruit cart, from papayas, pineapples, mangos, bananas and mangosteen.


These are a few of the very colorful things I get to see and go to while I'm here, and so thankful for it! I hope you get the chance, at some point of experiencing this wonderful and folkloric, little, moving 'restaurants'. 

Have a great Weekend!
Giannina.
