The steaming hot dish and the crunchy texture of the first bite are amazing; the first sign that today will be a great day.
45 minutes from Quito, beyond parallel 0º and 3,000 meters above sea level, set deep in the lush mountains of the cloud forest, northwest of the Metropolitan District of Quito: Yunguilla.
