We joined a friend of ours for lunch at Don Jediondo inside a mall in Cartagena. When you hear mall food, fast food comes to mind, but not in Cartagena. Lunch in Cartagena is serious business, so even at the mall you can get a home style meal. We ordered bandeja paisa (typical dish from Antioquia region consisting of rice, red beans, meat, chorizo, chicharon, arepa, fried plantain and a fried egg) and lengua guisada (braised beef tongue. To drink I had a Colombians soda. Not bad for mall food.
