Hearty Colombian soul food, giant meat platters, flavorful soups
"This Colombian spot’s empanadas, morcillas, and beefy pots of sancocho bring a pop of excitement to Edgewater’s glassy residential towers. Just know that they're lying when they tell you the picada feeds two—it actually feeds three plus a child after a relay race. Still, it’s a nice surprise when the steaming pile of chicken, morcilla, steak, chicharron, and fries arrives at your table and you can already envision your leftover dinner plans for the next week. Despite being surrounded by expensive seafood towers and rental units, Palo Quemao serves giant meat platters for $22, and cauldrons of beef soup for $15. Edgewater desperately needs a place like this." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"This Colombian spot’s empanadas, morcillas, and beefy pots of sancocho bring a pop of excitement to Edgewater’s forest of glassy residential towers. Just know that they're lying when they tell you the picada feeds two—it actually feeds three plus a child after a relay race. This meat mountain comes with chicken, crisp chicharron, morcilla, chorizo, steak, and weighs about the same as a preteen (in dog years) golden retriever. Underneath this grilled protein pyramid is a hefty pile of thick-cut fries. Prepare to enjoy this for the next week." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo

"Palo Quemao’s sancocho is the best (Colombian) sancocho in Miami. Chunks of carrot, corn, yuca, steamed plantain, potato, and a whole lot of beef float in this flavorful broth. It comes with a side of rice and avocado, which we like to gradually incorporate into the soup. The space doesn’t scream comfort—it’s narrow and looks like a hotel breakfast room—but it’s a great to-go option if you’d rather slurp your sancocho in bed." - mariana trabanino

But once you swirl your spoon around, you feel enough meat, carrots, and potatoes to last you an extra day. It’s an all-around excellent soup. photo credit: Tasty Planet Tostones Con Hogao Start your meal with this. The chunky hogao is tangy, salty, and tastes so good, we’d happily eat it on its own like soup. But topping the hot salsa onto the thick tostones is the most delicious way to go.
