I'm guessing you're staying at somebody's house and their cooking is just awful. All I can say is our food goes light years beyond fish&chips! For good colombian food be sure to go to Andres carne de res, if you have the time to go to Chia, that is (yes I know, you've probably been hearing about Andres from everyone you meet) or in the city Portal de la Antigua (carrera 11 and calle 90). Are you a veggie? if not, try Estancia Chica or la Bonga del Sinú for an awesome steak (both located near Parque de la 93). You have all kinds of options here, there's no excuse for leaving Bogota under the impression that the food here sucks.
