Food & beverage
On the Caribbean coast, a mestizo gastronomy emerged from centuries of conquest, trade, and migration. At El Otro Lado, our chefs honour this tradition by working with the freshest local catch — lobster, octopus, ceviche, coconut rice — and presenting it through creative menus that balance heritage and innovation.

From the port city of Colón, the cooking of the Caribbean coast carries deep Afro-Antillean roots — carimanolas filled with spiced meat, arroz con guandú simmered in coconut milk, patacones served alongside everything, and sweet tamales wrapped in plantain leaf. These are the flavours that shaped the region, and they find their way onto our table alongside the freshest ingredients from the bay.
