Flamboyant Chicho Cocina

Really tasty home style central/​south american food! Got delivery and was very pleasantly surprised. Excellent plantains, short ribs, ox tail. They also gave us this Cole slaw type salad with jalapeños and cilantro that was a delicious surprise. Really cheap prices and great quality. Happy I found this place

I had never had Columbian food before, so my rating is based on an inexperienced palette.
I tried several of their dishes including two of the appetizers, one that was not on the menu, Tostones (fried green plantain), which they specially made for us and the other was the Pollo Emapinizado, which is Chicken empanada. The tostones were OK, but the Empanadas were very good, the crust was good and the chicken inside was tasty.
For the main dishes we had the Pollo Guisado (Stewed chcken) and the Bistec Encebollado (sauté of steak smothered in onion, peppers and tomatoes).
The chicken looks extremely spicy from the outside as it was orangish, which imediately had my spice buds going, however on first bite, it wasn’t spicy at all. The meat was tender and the chicken does come with skin on, so if you are not a fan of skin, you may need to spend some time taking it off.
The steak was the highlight of the meal, very nicely cooked, has a distinct flavor and the vegies that it is cooked with complements the beef well.
So my first experience with Columbian food was was somewhere between 3 – 3.5 stars. i think i need to work on it a bit more to truely start appreciating it
