Modern takes on ceviche, arepas and empanadas are getting buzz at this rare deep dive into South American cuisine.
Owner Paul Iglesias, previously of Canela Bistro & Wine Bar in San Francisco, has tapped into his Colombian heritage with the opening of Parche in Oakland’s Uptown District.
Parche, roughly translated, means “a familial-style gathering place for a group of people to come together.” As such, the restaurant’s menu is small plate-centric, with dishes like Arepa de Anis, a corn cake with anise and barranquilla-style ají made with roasted veggies and tahini; Posta Negra, slow-cooked short rib in a Cartagena-style sauce made of cola and panela; and Ceviche de Chicharron with charred mandarin, Sriracha, lime juice and pickled red onions.
Look for a thoughtful, Colombian-inspired beverage program, too, including house sodas made with Colombian fruits, boozy coffee drinks and a “Trans-Atlantic tonica” section featuring Spanish and Colombian spirits. Pay extra attention to the unique interior design, which features bold colors, custom balays and murals depicting Colombian spirit animals, the condor and jaguar. Details:
