Hey there, folks! It’s me, the digital nomad bee buzzing in from The Woodshop, currently soaking up the vibrant vibes of Colombia. Originally from Argentina’s Tierra del Fuego (pin here to discover where this place is), I’ve been living in and captivated by Colombia’s stunning landscapes, friendly locals, and great quality of life for nearly two years now.
Colombia’s Holy Week is a big deal, and it gave me the perfect excuse to hit the road with my boyfriend for a five-day adventure through the country’s diverse terrain. From lush forests to bustling cities, we soaked up every moment of our journey.
But let me tell you about our return to Medellin. After navigating through traffic and spending countless hours in the car, we were craving some comfort food. And what’s more comforting than a hot slice of pizza? However, in a city known more for its coffee than its pizza, finding a good slice was a bit of a challenge.
Enter Café Dragón, tucked away in the bustling “PINK AREA” (fancy) of Poblado, a neighborhood popular among tourists and locals. Despite my aversion to crowds, Café Dragón stood out as a peaceful oasis amidst the chaos.
Now, let’s talk about their pizzas. As an Argentinian with a love for Italian cuisine, Café Dragón’s pizzas hit the spot. Our culinary heritage is deeply influenced by Italian immigrants, who brought with them the secrets to crafting the perfect dough, sauces, and toppings.
Every bite of their personal-sized pizza takes me back to the heart of my culture. The crispy crust, fresh basil, and gooey cheese are like a taste of home away from home.
But Café Dragón isn’t just about the pizza. It’s a cozy spot for book lovers, coffee enthusiasts, and anyone in need of a break from the daily grind. As I sip on my espresso and indulge in a tasty bakery treat, I can’t help but feel grateful for discovering this hidden gem in Medellin.
So, if you ever find yourself in Medellin and craving a slice of comfort food, make sure to stop by Café Dragón. It’s definitely worth a visit for a taste of their culinary magic. Until next time, folks, keep exploring and stay curious!
