Colombia - Pink

Tuesday
Today was a good day. We had launched the system on Monday, but today we sent our first item all the way through the approvals. To quote the A-Team, "I love it when a plan comes together."

To celebrate, we went out for dinner in a new mall near the hotel. We wandered around looking at menus and we settled on a restaurant named "Pink". Coby went with the spaghetti and I chose the "Lomo" cut of steak because it came with "Risotti Pink" which I assumed was the risotto of the house. The dish came with the steak nicely laid out in the wine reduction gravy. It was beautiful, but easily overlooked by the shockingly pink risotto. I am not sure what makes pink -- I had a fear of cherry risotto or something from an unknown beef origin -- but I think it was just food coloring. It had a nice bite and the flavor of the cheese was subtle and nice. The plate also had a nice pear/cheese slice. Anyway -- I got dessert again which was some red berry strudel thing. It was also good.

We waddled back to the hotel and called it an early night.
