About
Restaurante Idílico was founded in May 2019 by chef Yeison Mora and Cristian Salazar, who runs the dining room. Its kitchen works with Colombian produce, especially from the mountains of Antioquia, bought from small local producers. The menu is not fixed: dishes change with the season and with what its producers have available.
