Paris, Rome...Cartagena for Culsine? Says NY TIMES

The concentration of fine dining that can be found in the walled city of Cartagena, all within walking distance of Casa San Agustín caused the New York Times to write about Colombia's gem on the Caribbean becoming a magnet for Foodies.  If you find yourself hungry at 8:30 on a Saturday night and don't have a reservation at La Vitrola...unless you're Uribe, Bill Clinton or Ivanka Trump, forget about enjoying their carpaccio and pie de coco until after 11.  In addition to the great food and Cuban music the scene at La Vitrola is to see and be seen.  Oh La La, the tiny French jewel, just recently moved to Calle de Ayos in the walled city from Getsemani, right next door to El Bistro and La Perla...there's no name on the door yet.  If you want to dine al fresco and enjoy the 'theater in the street' head to Juan del Mar for Italian and thin, thin, pizza, red wine and Juan himself, who is very congenial and sings too!
