Polish & Colombian Fusion
Polombia
A chance meeting at a dinner party (and an Instagram DM) brought Phillipe Sobon and Cynthia Orobio together in 2019, eventually resulting in a restaurant concept that combines their respective Polish and Colombian heritages. Mashing up empanadas and pierogi into “empierogi” and topping a Polish sausage with pickles and a pineapple glaze, Polombia’s menu takes the contrasts and commonalities of the two cuisines in stride, offering dishes that take your taste buds on a globe-trotting adventure.
