ZARUMA El Oro Ecuador - Tigrillo Zarumeño Pueblo Magico!
Zaruma in the El Oro Province is one of Ecuador's best Pueblo Magico and home to Tigrillo Zarumeño.
Zaruma is up in the mountains and is a bit place for mining, in fact you can go on a Zarume tour of the mines. But I came for the culture aka the Zarumeño food - specifically tigrillo.
Tigrillo is a traditional Ecuadorian food that you can find all over the country but it was created in Zaruma.
We started with traditional Zarumeño food at 200 Millas carne apanado is like, a milanesa or a schnitzel. Because it is pounded thin meat that is then put in breadcrumbs. But then they take it one step further and they dip it in egg. So it actually comes out more like a tortilla type thing.
Then Ecuadorian churrasco, thin steak in a tomato, pepper sauce.
We just showed up and found Hotel Zaruma Colonial for $30 a night. They actually charge by person. So $15 per person. This is central and very clean. They even did a sanitization of blue light on the money we gave them.
Next up Cafeteria Uno to try one of the most traditional dishes in Zaruma el Oro Ecuador. It's called tigrillo.
We actually had another place that we wanted to go first, but then we found out from the reception at the hotel that this spot was actually the place where locals go. And the other spot which is very famous. Much more expensive, You don't get as much and it's not quite as authentic.
They also produce coffee and have a brand called Café del Cerro and it's, you can find it actually in the supermarkets here.
Tigrillo is mashed green plantain and quesillo cheese. So we also have the carne version, which has a little bit of meat and then also it's in a sauce.
I've had Ecuadorian tigrillo four or five times in the last couple weeks. This is by far the best.
Next up bolon de mani - literally means ball. It's usually the size of the big softball again, devastating breakfast. It iscommon in the El Oro province in Ecuiador. Mani means peanut butter and bolon de mani uses peanut paste.
It's like a gigantic, peanut butter cookie. And of course, it's plantain, so it's gluten free. This is a good gluten-free breakfast if you're going hiking somewhere.
We drove to Malvas, just outside Zaruma in El Oro but everything was closed so we returned to Zaruma for the Saturday market and to visit the Plaza de la Independencia.
Zaruma is a Pueblo Magico or a magic town, very similar to what they're doing in Mexico by identifying towns that have kept their traditional way of life. In Zaruma the younger people who don't want to work in the mines, leave to get an education and they're working in other cities. But most of the tourism in Zaruma on the weekends is from Zarumeños.
And they're also so proud of where they are from that even in Quito, Guayaquil, you will find cafes and other restaurants specifically designed for people from here usually called Cafe Zarumeño.
Cafe Galvez is a family owned business, known to have some of the best coffee in Zaruma. And also, when you go there, call ahead, and they can actually roast it to whatever you prefer. So, light medium, dark roast. Super nice people.
So glad that we came back into town.

Loja Ecuador Food: 10 Awesome Things to Eat!
Loja Ecuador has some of the best food in the country - La Comida Lojana. There are some dishes like chaunfaina, cecina and the Lojano Tamal that you'll want to travel for.
Loja is the last city in Ecuador before the Peruvian border. This is considered the cultural capital of Ecuador. It's famous for its musicians and artists and it was also the first Green City in Ecuador with a very aggressive recycling program.
It's a beautiful city, colonial style similar to Cuenca but it's smaller. And also I'm here to check out the Comida Lojana. So Loja has some specific dishes here that are really good. Number one, I'm here for the coffee.
The tamal Lojano is a bit different here. So traditional Ecuador food uses a tamal made with maiz sabroso which is a corn starch based flour. But the tamal Lojano uses a different dough so it's actually just ground corn. So similar to humitas but in that case it's actually the sweet corn called choclo.
At the Tamal Lojano they have three different kinds of tamales. You can get chicken, pork, or also quesillo, which is a fresh cheese.
Mercato Central Commercial in Loja and there were so many things that I want to eat here. I came to this one spot Comedor 413 because it had so many people here. I came for chaunfaina and then also a bit of the cecina.
Chaunfaina is rice that's cooked with a sofrito, but the most important thing is they actually use offal. All of the innards of the pig that would normally be thrown out. And this is a side dish that you'll get, I got it with cecina.
Ecuadorian horchata is a drink that's made with different herbs, often some kind of pink flower petal to give it its color. You can drink it in the market even though you can't drink water here because it is boiled. So I do feel comfortable drinking that. It almost tastes like a pink lemonade here.
I came to Loja to eat two different soups both called repe, which means unripe banana. So in Loja they have the smallish banana that you can eat ripe. And that's how the rest of the country eats it. Or in Loja they also eat it unripe. Which is very unusual for other Ecuadorians because the unripe banana they might feed their livestock.
So these two different soups are interesting because the repe con arveja con guineo is like a kind of like a split pea soup and then it also has cubes of this unripe banana that is uncooked. So this is raw unripe banana in this repe.
Another Ecuadorian soup: repe blanco, boiled green banana, pound it into a mash, mixed with potato and quesillo.
There's an Ecuadoran custom that if you go to Loja, you must stop off for some sweets or dulces in the market. Traditional sweets from Loja are rustic, they're made with sugar cane, molasses, simple ingredients.
Some traditional options are bocadillo, so it's a square of molasses made with peanuts. It's the signature sweet of Loja. You can also get peanuts covered with sugar, fig in syrup. You can also get roscon.
I think the best thing to do actually is just to get the mixed bag because then you're bound like one of them.
When traveling in Loja if you can't get everywhere in the province head to Somos Loja off the main square, which is a cooperative artisanal shop that also has an incredible coffee shop in Ecuador selling 19 types of coffee from Loja. And you can try 10 of the coffees from Loja for $1/cup.
Emporio Lojana is such a great spot with coffee, food, artisanal beer, but also the coolest thing is the signature drink trino, which means something that will make you sing. It means tweet.
