Barcal
Bogotá, Colombia
The read// why locals go
Barcal is a neighbourhood restaurant in Chapinero Alto, Bogotá, cooking contemporary Colombian food for the barrio around it. Calle 69 runs through the part of the city that filled up with studios, agencies and small offices, and the restaurant matches that: informal, wine-led, busy with people who work nearby. The kitchen keeps one foot in tradition — bandeja paisa, arepas — and the other in a run of specials that follows the season. There is seating outside and a short list of wine worth reading. Around 45,000 pesos covers a main. What people come back for is the warmth rather than any single dish.
