The sausage was very good, but only a sausage for 33,000? My daughter ordered a sample plate with mushrooms, red cabbage, the same sliced potatoes and salad for about 24,000. A Erdinger beer was 24,000. They gave us 3 pieces of bread and a total of 104,000. They also take credit cards. I've eaten all over Germany and the USA and that's disappointing. But the service was very good.

We arrived on Sunday and being German, I really wanted to check German food. The menu was very easy with 2 types of sausage, smoked trout and ham Hock. We decided to share one of the sausage plates, the 31.500. It came with sauerkraut and a bunch of pan roasted potatoes. Many calories and fat. The food was good, but nothing was incredible. The service was good, but no one came to clean the table when we were done. No one offered us beer after we finished our first beers. We had Pilsen the local beer and I think it was 5000 COP. You had German beers, but you could buy the same beer at Carulla in Rionegro. They also take credit cards.

As such, I always seek international restaurants that try to create food in their respective countries. Opa Grandma may not be the food I had during eating in restaurants in the Black Forest in Germany, but it offers travelers an alternative to eating. After having the goulash and applecake/pee yesterday, I would say that the restaurant is a beautiful place to have a hearty meal when visiting El Retiro. While the Goulash tasted a little gland, it was still a change from the typical restaurants in the area. I think the best part of the meal for me was the sauerkraut and red cabbage. I missed it. The apple cake was like an apple cake. It was good and different, but certainly not a strudel. I had made a black beer in Colombia, as prices for imported beers were not worth the price. Overall, I would visit the restaurant again as it is near where I live, and the food is a welcome change in the many restaurants that serve the same kind of parilla life.
