Food Scene
Great starters (octopus, lamb meatballs, baked brie, house salad, and others) and their specialty: A simple steak and fries.
If there's a few of you, I suggest seating at the Bar, or the inside terrace.

Unusual building with several casual eateries, in which each one is inside a different shipping container.
Try sandwiches at Sr. Ostia, but adventure with all others.
It's a short 5 min walk from home.

Wok has several branches around town. It's affordable "pan-asian" food. Great if some of you are vegetarian (several options here) and some aren't. Their menu is, literally, a complete magazine of options.
They work with sustainable ingredients, and they make an interesting exercise on social responsibility.

Sightseeing
It's just unique. Old salt mine tunnels transformed into a cathedral. If you have a whole afternoon to spare (its rather far from town, so do reserve some time). Probably mix it up with lunch at Entrepués on the way back to town.

The old Bogotá. Worth walking and exploring.
Make sure you go to:
1. Chorro de Quevedo
2. Palacio San Carlos
3. Museo Botero
4. Plaza de Bolivar
5. Casa del Florero
6. Have a hot chocolate con queso in "La Puerta Falsa", and dip the cheese on the chocolate!
(not necessarily in that order).

Usaquen used to be a small town north of Bogota. It got devoured by the growing city but its central square remains, with several restaurants, some pubs, and a flea market on weekends.
My personal favorites in this area: Mediterranea de Andrei, Amarti Cafe, Horacio Barbato, 7-16, Patagonia and Abasto (for brunch!).

Yes, it's touristy but different from most museums you've seen.
With 55.000 gold pieces from the pre-hispanic times, the museum recreates the myth of "El Dorado", and shows the goldsmith talents of our ancesters from different tribes and ages.

Parks & Nature
Here's a chance to breathe pure air right out of the city! It's a rather steep hike, and not very well signaled, so do use sports clothing, and look for other hikers for directions!

If you're in Bogota for a few nights, this place is worth visiting. It shows not-so-mainstream movies in mid-sized rooms.
While waiting for the movie, you can have craft beer and meat balls right next door in Köttbullar.
