Catering in Colombia.

Hey people. I just got a quick question. I am looking for a catering company/person to prepare a Lasagna for a very special event to feed about 70 attendees around mid december. (Did not want to go with the typical Lechona since it is kind of boring already) Do you guys know where I will be able to find more information about this topic? or a person/company that I may be able to contact? Thank you in advance. ...

I was browsing the internet and found it very interesting and it shows the reality of what is like to live in Bogota.
