Platillos Voladores
A Cali institution run by chef Vicky Acosta for over twenty years. Blends Pacific Coast ingredients with Southeast Asian flavors, and is widely regarded as the city's top choice.
Located at Avenida 3 Norte #7-19, near the Granada neighborhood. Chef Vicky Acosta has long explored the cuisine of the Pacific Coast, combining Colombian ingredients with Southeast Asian flavors. El Tiempo's restaurant review recommends starting with the seafood marinated in lime juice, then ordering the peach palm sauce fish and the wet rice stew. The peach palm spring rolls are among the most frequently ordered starters. Since 2024, the old garage space has become a small walk-in spot called “El Garaje.” Main courses cost about 50,000 to 70,000 COP, and a dinner for two with three courses and wine costs about 200,000 to 300,000 COP. Booking two days in advance is recommended.
