The Changua I grew up eating — memory as a review

I grew up eating Changua and have strong opinions shaped by memory. The version here triggered that recognition in the first bite — the hearty and comforting was right, fresh guanábana was handled the way it should be.

Colombian cuisine varies dramatically between the coastal Caribbean, Andean, and Amazonian regions. Growing up it was always a coastal Caribbean seafood restaurant, which shaped my reference point entirely. Águila beer alongside it is the only way it makes sense to me. It's hard to be objective about food you have emotional history with, but objectively: this is very good.
