La Cumbia nacio como un requerimiento de la comunidad colombiana en Australia que extrañaba la comida tipica de Colombia como asi de otros paises latinoamericanos.

Tuve anteriormente dos restaurantes en Colombia, ubicados en Cartago y Quibdo. Radicado en Australia en 1997 comence a cocinar comidas tipicas por encargo. Luego viaje a los Estados Unidos con la idea de adquirir experiencia en uno de los restaurantes mas reconocidos de New Jersey y luego inaugurar mi propio restaurant en Sydney.

El menu que aqui presento es en parte el fruto de mi experiencia en New Jersey. Espero que lo disfruten!

La Cumbia was born as a reponse to the Colombian community in Australia. Most colombians were missing the traditional dishes from Colombia an other Latin American countries.

I owned two other restaurants before located in the Colombian cities of Cartago and Quibdo. Just arrived in australia in 1997 I started a colombian food catering service. Later on I travelled to USA where I decided to get as much experience as possible as a cook. There I worked for one of the most famous restaurants in New Jersey with the idea of opening my own restaurant in Sydney as soon as I possible.

Our menu is partially inspired by my experience in New Jersey. Enjoy it!
