themedellinmap.com - Il Forno, Melodie Lounge...

IL FORNO
Il Forno combines the extensive menu, value for money and reliability of a restaurant chain like Crepes and Waffles yet with the intimacy of a family run Italian restaurant.

Indeed, Il Forno's menu includes pizzas, pastas, lasagnas, salads, meats and seriously big sandwiches with an equally large choice of starters and puddings.

A round the fire atmosphere is created by the predominantly wooden surroundings and soft lighting making Il Forno an easy choice for couples and families alike.

MELODIE LOUNGE
Created by a team of chefs, designers and architects, Melodie Lounge offers an extensive menu of cocktails and appetiser's, accompanied by soothing electronic, jazz, funk and any other laid back genre of music.

Indeed, with lots of comfy sofas and dimmed lighting, Melodie Lounge is one of only a few places in Medellin where you can relax and converse without being drowned out by the music.

That said, you may also find the clientele a little bit too cool for school and less willing to strike up a conversation with their fellow stranger.

Melodie Lounge is split over two floors; the first floor includes sofas, a coffee bar and a VIP area. The second floor includes the main lounge, a DJ cabin and a bar.

EL TIBIRI
El Tibiri is among the best salsa clubs in Medellin and arguably the main attraction on La 70.

Set in a lower basement, you might easily walk straight past El Tibiri if you weren't already looking for it. The basement setting also creates quite an intimate atmosphere, so much so, that sweat is likely to accumulate on the walls and low ceilings.

The position of the dance floor makes it feel a bit too much like a stage in front of the onlooking audience and it takes quite a few rums before you can relax and blend in with the crowd.

That said, like most salsa clubs, El Tibiri's atmosphere is super-friendly and newbies will no doubt be whipped up by would-be teachers for an impromptu lesson.
