Seven Sisters Market Unidad 6-7, London N15 5BT, United Kingdom
Highlights
"Blankita is a bustling hub on the corner of Seven Sisters serving home-cooked Colombian food that’s as warming in winter as it is satisfying in summer. The beef tongue is covered in a fruity and mildly spiced yellow sauce, and slowly cooked with stodgy and starchy potatoes. The star, though, is the meat. A careless whisper could break down the pink strands and a mouthful alongside rice, plantain, and a dollop of sharp red chilli salsa will have you humming with happiness." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"It’s very hard to spend more than £15 at Blankita and, if you do, you’re certainly going to be going home with plenty of frijoles for later. The Colombian cafe on the corner of Seven Sisters Market has a friendly, community feel about it as solo workers or local families order at the counter and then take a seat before enjoying satisfying grilled or fried meats (and some fish). A plate of juicy chorizo with rice and plantain costs a tenner, or go for a soup in the winter." - jake missing, sinead cranna, daisy meager
"Any main meal Blankita’s faintly makeshift-looking structure on the corner of Seven Sisters Market is almost always full of hunched shoulders and satisfied bellies. The homely Colombian spot serves empanadas, escalope, stews, and more—but most often we find ourselves cutting into gently cooked meat with rice and plantain, with frijoles on the side for good measure." - Jake Oliver, Rianne Shlebak
"One suspects that a particularly violent storm could threaten Blankita’s DIY conservatory on Seven Sisters road, but that’s part of the charm of this homely Colombian spot. Sun, shade, and steaks are all on the menu, and having a freshly made juice and an empanada at Blankita is the perfect tonic to a day that’s almost too nice. Friends and family are pretty much always leaning back in their makeshift fold-out table and chair setup. When it comes to catching a breather and something home-cooked and great-value off the grill, there are few places we’d rather do it." - Rianne Shlebak, Jake Oliver, Sinead Cranna
"Blankita is a bustling hub on the corner of Seven Sisters serving home-cooked Colombian food that’s as warming in winter as it is satisfying in summer. Stews, soups, frijoles, and empanadas are all on the menu and it’s virtually impossible to leave the easygoing indoor-outdoor setup without lazily rubbing your stomach. Grilled steak or pork with rice and plantain is a standard, but beef tongue is one of the standout dishes. Blankita’s version is covered in a fruity and mildly spiced yellow sauce, slowly cooked with stodgy and starchy potatoes, and sweet onions in there as well. The star, though, is the meat. A careless whisper could break the pink strands down and a mouthful alongside rice, plantain, and a dollop of Blankita’s sharp red chilli salsa will have you humming with happiness." - Jake Missing
