If you want to taste something truly local in Cartagena, try a carimañola — a fried yuca pastry traditionally filled with meat or cheese. It’s a simple dish, but it tells you a lot about Caribbean Colombian food: generous, flavorful and made for everyday life.
My tip? Don’t look for the fanciest restaurant. Try one from a trusted local spot or street-food vendor, preferably in the morning or early afternoon when locals are actually eating them. And if you’re adventurous, ask for one with meat and enjoy it with a cold local drink.
It’s one of those small experiences that can tell you more about Cartagena than a perfectly staged tourist attraction.
