The facade of Delicias del Tolima on this street features a bright, hand-painted sign depicting a golden roasted pig, or lechona, served on a green leaf. This restaurant specializes in a dish from the Tolima region, where the entire pig is stuffed with rice, peas, and spices, then slow-roasted in an earthen oven for many hours. The owners brought this tradition from their home province to Medellín to serve a recipe that requires two days of preparation before the first plate reaches a customer.
