Ajúa La Taquería
Parque Lleras·$$
Quesadilla de Huitlacoche
COP8500.00
Corn fungus and cheese in a crispy griddled tortilla — a traditional Mexican delicacy.
Tip: If you've never had huitlacoche, try it here with an open mind. The corn flavor is subtle and the cheese mellows any earthy notes. It's one of Mexico's best-kept secrets.
#2
Criminal Taquería
El Poblado·$$
Quesadilla de Queso y Rajas
COP8000.00
Melted cheese and roasted poblano peppers in a crispy griddled corn tortilla.
Tip: Order 1-2 quesadillas per 4 people as a shared starter while waiting for the tacos to arrive. Pairs well with lime and hot salsa.
#3
Dos Santos Cantina
Provenza·$$$
Quesadillas de Flor de Calabaza
COP16000.00
Crispy corn tortillas filled with squash blossoms, cheese, and epazote.
Tip: The squash blossom quesadillas are more herbaceous than cheesy. If you prefer richness, ask to add extra cheese or pair with a crema sauce.
