Our take: Albany Park’s Colombian flame: Brasa Roja’s rotisserie chickens are a siren song for carnivores. Bring a bottle of Aguardiente and prepare for a pollo pilgrimage.

Wine Pairing: For Colombian rotisserie, a fruit-forward Malbec or Carmenere works well. For white, try a crisp Torrontés or Sauvignon Blanc.

Beer Pairing: A Colombian beer like Club Colombia pairs perfectly. For a craft option, try a Vienna lager to complement the roasted flavors.

Spirits Pairing: Aguardiente is Colombia's spirit of choice. Bring a bottle of Antioqueño or Cristal. For a whiskey option, bring a bottle of bourbon.
