This is a relatively new mall that's been built some time in the past 18 months. It's located on top of the Envigado Exito and HomeCenter and is supposed to be the largest in Colombia.
It's just a short walk, on a dedicated walkway, from the Envigado metro station and includes an IMax theater, small amusement park and a great selection of restaurants and bars.

Great place to eat. I was staying At the M last January and Parmesano's is right down the hill from there. They have a awesome Lasagna.

Posts: 532Here are some restaurants that I thought were pretty good. Most around the Laureles area. Voraz, a higher end restaurant. Good steaks and really good pork bbq ribs with homemade bbq sauce. Tr 39 B #74 B-41. This is the place I took the girl from casa de Piedra to and she loved it. Dejame Q Te Cuenta. Another good place for steaks and was close to the hotel. Cr 70 / Circular 2-47. Opera pizza. Italian food but I liked their thin crust pizza. My buddy and I wanted a light lunch so we split a pizza. Ca 42 #70-22. There were many other restaurant we tried but the ones above would be the ones I would go back to. Also, can't remember who posted it but he recommended Las Hermanas Paisas at Cir 4 east of 70. Unfortunately this restaurant is no more. We walked there from the hotel and nobody inside no grill on. There were a couple of guys next door at the tatoo shop and we asked if the restaurant will open later but they said the restaurant went out of business. They recommended a small cheap restaurant not far from there on Cr 70 but I totally forgot the name of the place. I really wanted to try Cafe Colombo Credenza but ran out of time.

Nothing wrong with taking her out shopping. Plenty of cheap clothes in Mayorista and El Centro. Malls will be priced comparable to the US.

However, in a nice restaurant, an actual hooker, dressed like a hooker, with an obvious gringo sticks out like a sore thumb. Meanwhile, a secretary, dressed the same, sitting with her 60 year old boss (who has his hand on her thigh) looks normal.
I always told the girls to dress conservatively. If I wanted to have lunch or dinner with them I'd meet at a casual bar so I could assess their clothing choice before deciding on a restaurant.
If you don't mind the cost, try El Botaniko, Carrera 33 #7-21.

As far as attracting attention, there are lots of variables. Difference in age, how both of you are dressed, you Spanish ability, etc. If you are three times her age and wearing shorts and talking loud in English and if she looks like a hooker, yes you will stick our like a sore thumb. Personally I hate seeing this as it gives Gringo visitors a bad name, but it's a free world.

Posts: 13Medellin Restaurant Date Ideas.
Hi guys,
I heard there are some great restaurants in Medellin. I really want to take a date to one of the places below. Will it be noticeable I am with a chica (will the girl know how to address appropriately)? Or should I try a less upscale place? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just took my FaseII sweetie Estrella there a few days ago, wow was it good, the clam thing she ordered was about the best thing I have ever tasted!
(Estrella was dressed like a little bear, I called her "Winne the Pooh" all night. LOL).
We ordered salads, appetizers, main course, desert, beer, beverages, pitcher of Sangria and the bill was still only about 150 k tip incld and 48 k of that was the enormous pitcher of red Sangria.
The 1st photo is a stock photo from their website of the inside seating, the others are mine.

Las Hermanas Paisas on Circular 4 just east of Carrera 70.
Fonda Bar El Reno on Circular 2 close to Avenida Bolivariana.
El Colmado Carrera 70, just a few blocks south of metro station Estadio.
All are reasonably priced comida topics.
Full Arabe on Circular 5 west of Carrera 70. Excellent Lebanese food.
