This is a picture of a typical Colombian lunch. They call it Almuerzo Corriente, which means fast lunch. however it's really not that fast...it's used to denote a restaurant that makes a different "plate of the day" every day - really cheap.
When you sit down at your table, the waiter will give you a choice of chicken or steak. Sometimes you get a choice of sides, but usually you just get whatever the cook has prepared that day: beans, peas, pasta, potato, beet salad, sweet potatoes, platano, tomato salad, etc. etc. -
All of this plus soup and fresh juice for 5,000 pesos or about $2.50!
The meal above came from the restaurant about 2 blocks from our house - we eat there a couple of times a week. It's always really good.
