Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=JohnnieCash;2797758]Thanks gents, I will try el Corral, I see there's one near San Antonio station. I just saw earlier another chain-looking place called Presto near Coltejer, will try it too.

I've tried a place that's in the same building as hotel Nutibara (behind it), that had a burger in its name. I got something that I thought they bought of the lowest shelf in supermarket, of "burger in microwave in 2 minutes!" variety (and, as if that wasn't enough, cold fries).

Tried another place on Carabobo and wasn't sure what kind of meat I got and, for a brief moment, I wondered; is it actually meat? Did they mince some arepas and painted it brown?

I can't complain about non-minced meat in Centro though so far, I just can't find place with a good burger near Botero Plaza.

As for non-centro places, many thanks for the list JjBee62. I've already tried Chef Burger before and it's one of my favorites, but didn't try the others you mentioned (yet).

The other day I tasted one from Home Burgers, pretty good too. I also got one in Buenos Aires Mercolanta store (which has the small restaurant & heladeria attached to it and they use their own meats) good as well. Oh and tried one from Qbano, not very good, although it did taste of meat, but the patty was very dry and had a strange consistency.[/QUOTE]Presto is good too but in my opinion Presto is more like a Burger King or Carl's Jr type burger and El Corral is more like a restaurant burger more along the lines of a Red Robbin burger. There's a place called Clap Burger near poblado that was good also (similar to In-and-Out) but they only have outdoor seating.

[QUOTE=Dachi14;2797704]I have also created a FB account and have a few ladies who accepted my friend request and also been working SA with a age range of 21 to 45. I am 54. Already have 2 of the younger ones telling me they need help with school and rent. I had to laugh to keep from telling them to GTFOH. I been communicating with three 40+ yo woman and the tricky part is how to keep them from thinking they got a potential SD and not just a five day friend willing to compensate for their time.[/QUOTE]What are you communicating with them for? They are hookers, not potential girlfriends that need attention from you all the time. You simply add them to your list and let it be. Then you contact them when you are there or maybe a day or 2 before, but acting like you are actually there.

If you plan on going to a fancy restaurant in May for your birthday you don't call up the maitre the everyday starting in March. He has other customers to serve and is not trying to deal with you like that, especially if he does not know your money is guaranteed.

The hookers are not just sitting around waiting for you. They have other customers to deal with. All you can do for them with that much distance and time in between is to send them money. So if you do not plan on doing that then just add them to your list and chill.

P.S. Funny that you would go on a sugar daddy / sugar baby website, but not want the chicks to think you are a potential sugar daddy. That is like going on grindr but not wanting people to think you are gay.

So I submitted a long winded meandering rundown of some of my thoughts on upping your game in Medellin. What I'm hoping with this post is someone could help with perhaps starting to put together a Medellin spanish sex reference for requesting specific acts and sexual kinks. I judge nobody so whatever floats your boat I just want to know as much Spanish as I can with regards to sexual kinks and fantasies if for no other reason to practice and have conversations with women to ask them what they like or don't like.

My body count here is probably around 45 so I'm no 'expert'. But my take is most don't even know simple slang we take for granted. I've had many that 'blow job' is enough to put them into a confused blank stare. You are literally better served by just making a hand motion to your mouth like sucking dick. They get that.

So does there happen to be anyone on this forum that could throw out some spanish phrases to start it going on what we can use to communicate the sexual aspects of sex with the women of Medellin. I know there might be more general spanish resources and such but regions matter so much that I would expect Medellin has it's own spanish slang for sex.

[QUOTE=JoeF479;2797699]I fucking LOVE Lleras Park bar. We all have varying opinions, but that's my favorite bar on planet Earth and I've been all over the world. The 2 girls I took back to the Mansion from there were Angels sent straight from Heaven for me.[/QUOTE]It's like you said, a slam dunk because every girl there is a prepago. How amazing it would be to have places like that back home but instead here bars are mostly filled with entitled females who don't put out and if they do they are certainly not even close to being as hot as the girls you'll find at lleras park or gustos.

They must protect these establishments at all costs.

[QUOTE=RacShack;2796504]What was it over? Why did he shoot her? I also can't find the one where teacher got stabbed in neck and bled out all over, he got involved with two drunks treating waitresses bad! Any one have that one?[/QUOTE]I recall posting it in 2020. But the site is gone / transferred.

[QUOTE=VsebudetNY;2514374]It's awful and heartbreaking and should be considered as a reminder to be very careful and behave yourself, but the victim wasn't a gringo he was a local teacher (the video is very graphic, you can scroll to 1:10):

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2797752]LOL! No, El Corral is too upscale for Centro. .... LOL![/QUOTE]He seems to have found one.

[QUOTE=JohnnieCash;2797758]Thanks gents, I will try el Corral, I see there's one near San Antonio station. ....[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2797752].... That is closer to Poblado than it is to Centro. There isn't even a McDonalds on Junin any more. I can tell you where to find arepas and chicken gizzard chuzos in Centro. LOL![/QUOTE]I think I mentioned in a post to you before that there is one in Unicentro which is walking distance for me from El Centro. I don't see anything upscale about it. It's just a small store like any other when it is located inside the mall. There are several places ithat offer better, similar type of food in El Centro at similar price point. I am not a burger person so it makes no difference to me and by default it is not upscale for me.

[QUOTE=TheProcess;2797753]...Spanish. I can't say enough how much better your experience will be if you are comfortable with basic conversational Spanish. If you don't know Spanish very well, wait 6 months to come and spend an hour or two each day working up your Spanish skills. ....[/QUOTE]Thanks for taking the time to write the report. I think one should come, don't wait, you probably will never be ready if you wait.

The discussion goes in cycle. Spanish knowledge is one of them. For credit card purchase, I think [b]quotas/installments[/b] will be most confusing to new visitors because it is a concept that does not exist in US for most.

I rarely encounter rude behavior, none I can remember. On multiple occasions the waiter just brought out all the drink types they have on the table to explain to me. When I ordered picada, I just put my palm on my jaw or point to my ear and they know what I want. LOL.

One time I was standing some distance away from a street vendor that I know in El Centro. She saw me and made a WTF or what do you want gesture with her palms facing the sky. So I went and got my dinner.

[QUOTE=TheProcess;2797753]With that I grabbed the top of his hand and quickly just flipped it over and put him on his knees with a wrist lock.[/QUOTE]Man I'd avoid the physical confrontation like this, martial arts won't help you much against knife in the back or gun in your face and you were wise not to come back there otherwise the guy might want to settle the score of this "disrespect". Though MA might help in back against the wall situation but guy putting a hand on you on busy street doesn't qualify for that in my mind. Just throw it away and move on. It doesn't mean much it's illegal to carry a knife, a lot of street guys are carrying them. Pepper gas might be handy I guess.

Sometimes 'no gracias' is too much of acknowledgment. I often just ignore them totally as if they don't exist or make a quick decisive hand gesture signifying "no / go away" while not even looking or changing my pace.

Anyway, great report.

[QUOTE=Nounce;2797919]Thanks for taking the time to write the report. I think one should come, don't wait, you probably will never be ready if you wait.[/QUOTE]I agree don't wait. My trips are probably my favorite thing in life. My first trip was solo because my friend backed out. I decided I was going no matter what. Linked up with a few guys off of a different forum and had a blast. If you don't have a friend to travel with then check out travel announcements. Most guys who post their dates there are friendly enough to at the very least meet for a drink and point you in the right direction. Or just hit up a few well known gringo spots and see if you can find someone like minded. Some of the guys I have met on various trips to different destinations have become very close friends of mine over the years. Feel free to pm me for any help or advice.

Yes, exactly, I don't see anything upscale about it either. For Centro it is too upscale however. I don't think there are enough customers to support one in Centro. I haven't eaten a burger in decades so I can't evaluate their product. I think Premium Plaza is a little closer to San Antonio than Unicentro. He could grab a bus or uber for a quick run to get that burger.

Anthony, you wrote my favorite post of the week so far. LOL!

[QUOTE=Anthony2023;2797724]I love it. I hope to see lots of hoodrats on my next stay there.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Villainy;2797694]Hamburgers are not really a Colombian staple but they are catching on with the locals. In the last couple of years in Laureles I've seen half a dozen new places open up, just in the areas I frequent.

Are any of them good? I'm a vegetarian so I can't opine. But I've heard from some of my cronies that Chef Burger is very good quality and at a moderate price.[/QUOTE]My old roommate loves burgers, so we spent a lot of time checking out burger joints. Chef Burger is good, but I like the menu at Barbacoa, Burgers and Beer better. If I remember correctly they have a vegetarian burger on the menu.

There are a few good places in Laureles I've visited too.

[QUOTE=Nounce;2797908]He seems to have found one..[/QUOTE]There are 2 versions of El Corral. Most of them are fairly typical fast food burger places. The other type is a sit down restaurant with a more upscale and expensive menu. I believe there's one in Oviedo Mall.

There is a place in Santa Fe Mall, I think called Garage Burger, that was pretty good too.

Colombian slang is fun to learn with different sex terms like Leche, polvo, chimba, chimbo, etc.
