Patacones

I'm here on a visa run. Mexican Immigration finally gave me accreditation, but it now means I have to leave the country, get my visa changed at a nearby Mexican Consulate, and come back in again. It could have been anywhere, but Bogota was as good a choice as any, and it gave me the chance to visit its British Council office.
Nice dinner with David C, at Central Cevicheria, a fish restaurant downtown. I had patacones which are essentially flat (traditionally stamped-on!) plantain patties with sour cream for starters, and cherna (a fish - wreckfish it says here - from Colombia's Pacific coast) with plantain, coconut & ginger.
