Rapid summary: Between 2025 and 2026, 3 Soles built up awards in two categories of the Chia Gastronomic Challenge, presence at Gastrobest and a final place at the Porkgombia Reto.
Any restaurant can say that it has good cuisine. Few can back up with an outside jury’s evaluated prize, more than one category and more than one issue. That’s the case with 3 Soles, who have been collecting recognition in just over a year ranging from a production and production production production and from a range of different agencies and with their own criteria of assessment.
Chia 2025 Gastronomic challenge: Contemporary cuisine
The first edition of Gastronomical challenge of Chia 2025organized by the Municipal Mayor’s Office, 3 Soles was recognized as a winner of the category Contemporary Cooking. That prize marked the starting point of a restaurant relationship with this type of competition, which has been active since.
Chia Gastronomy challenge 2026: Gastronomy Liquid
A year later, 3 Soles again won, this time in the category Gastronomy Liquid, with Solanum Andinoand the production and production of products and products and products and their production and production, Karen CruzThat’s right. Winning in two different categories, in two consecutive years, confirms that recognition does not have been limited to a tiptiptiary plate but also extends to the padded.
Gastrobest 2025 and 2026
3 Soles has been a part of Gastrobest, one of the spaces that brings together the gastronomic scene of the region, both editions, 2025 and 2026. That continuous presence, year after year, is another sign that the restaurant remains active within the circuit of gastronomic events of the Territory, and not only in the specific competition of the Gastronomic Retirement.
To be present at an event of this kind two consecutive years also involves an own logistics, different from that of a competition with a jury: it requires to coordinate equipment, inputs and assembly for an audience that will assist with a specific taste of gastronomic proposals from the region.
PorkColombia’s challenge 2025: Finalists
3 Soles also reached the final phase of Reto PorkColombia, a competition focused specifically on pork preparations. Reaching to this final instance, in a competition specialized in a single type of protein, requires a particular mastery of the technique that goes beyond the general fusion cuisine that characterizes the restaurant.
Why this trajectory matters more than an isolated prize
Recognition in different categories
To gain from contemporary cuisine and from a few different years of coffee, it shows that the level of the restaurant does not depend on a single plate or a single cook but on a team capable of maintaining quality at different fronts of the kitchen.
A sustained presence, not a lucky blow
To participate in Gastrobest two years in a row and in two different competitions from the Gastronomic Retirement and the Porkgombia Retirement, excludes the possibility that this will be an isolated prize. It’s a pattern of participation and results that’s repeated.
External Justices, Non-Self-Assessment
Unlike a social networking qualification, this type of prize goes through specialized Justices who evaluate technical, concept and performance. That outer filter’s just what gives weight to the path to any restaurant that’s simply called a prize.
What this means for those who visit 3 Soles
None of these prizes change the daily menu and the price of the letter. What does change is the certainty that, after every plate or cocktail, there’s a level of demand that’s been tested outside the restaurant itself. To those who are deciding where to eat, celebrate or simply try something different at Chia, that path is an objective fact that weighs more than a loose opinion.
That path also says something about the team behind the restaurant. It’s not the same as a cook who wins a prize once, perhaps lucky or good day, as a team that presents itself year after year to different skills and holds results in categories that have nothing to do with each other, from contemporary cuisine to liquid cuisine and pork preparations. That constant participation pattern is often better an indicator of sustained quality than a single, secluded prize, however prestigious.
If you have little time, ask for this.

- Beer’s tacos ($41,400), the most requested plate of the restaurant.
- Bondiola in cruba sauce ($51,800), a plate of author representing the letter.
