Calle del Curato owes its name to the fact that prominent religious authorities of the era once resided there. It is located in the San Diego neighborhood, in the heart of the Walled City—just steps away from the former Convent of Santa Clara and next door to the house that Gabriel García Márquez commissioned from architect Rogelio Salmona. El Curato is housed within one of these historic buildings. The renovation preserved the centuries-old walls and original proportions while breathing new life into the space; here, history is something you inhabit, not just something you observe from afar. The menu features Colombian products with a Caribbean flair—such as *casabe* (cassava flatbread), *suero costeño* (a traditional fermented cream), plums, and *panela* (unrefined cane sugar)—served as dishes meant to be shared at the center of the table. It is a relaxed bistro, perfect for a visit with family, friends, or a partner.
