There Chupe de Mariscos. Recommended by a VT member from Arequipa as the best of the local specialties, it was not easy to find at the end of its season in March, but it was worth the effort. Just the look of it let me know that I was in for a treat.
Montecarlo, Iquitos (tel. 065/232-246): The northern Amazon city of Iquitos has a handful of good restaurants serving Peruvian and jungle specialties, but this new upscale place -- glitzy on the outside but relaxed and elegant on the inside -- is the best. Fish dishes are excellent, as is the service. If you want, you can gamble downstairs at the casino.Club Colonial, Huanchaco (tel. 044/461-015): An unexpectedly chic and stylish restaurant in the low-key beach resort of Huanchaco, this Belgian-French place has the kind of ambience you'd look to find in Barranco in Lima, not the north coast. The candlelit dining room is like a cool expatriate's house, and the menu is a tantalizing mix of Peruvian and Franco-Belgian items. Whether you order meat or fresh fish, or even a Belgian standard, you're in for a treat.Pueblo Viejo, Chiclayo (tel. 074/228-863): Chiclayo might not be the dining...
Greens, Cusco (tel. 084/243-820): A small and stylish restaurant in the cool San Blas district, Greens has a creative menu and funky decor, including low, comfy sofas and hipster tunes. The excellent, surprising menus of international and Peruvian dishes are reasonably priced.Killa Wasi, Huicho (tel. 084/201-620): Now that La Casa de la Abuela is open only part-time, my next favorite spot in the valley is the restaurant of Hotel Sol y Luna, the best hotel in the Sacred Valley. The restaurant is elegant but relaxed, and the menu is full of creative criollo and nouveau Andean dishes. The pub upstairs is a good spot for a pisco sour late in the day.Indio Feliz, Aguas Calientes (tel. 084/211-090): The town at the bottom of Machu Picchu is a little scrappy, so this Peruvian-French restaurant really stands out. In an attractive and very popular two-level dining room, it offers a great-value...
Manos Morenas, Lima (tel. 01/467-0421): The best place for dinner and a show in Lima, this sleek Barranco restaurant serves good criollo cooking and features peña and Afro-Peruvian music and dance nightly. It's housed in an elegant early 1900s house, very appealingly converted. The show's not inexpensive, but it's usually a great evening out.Restaurante Illary, Cusco (tel. 084/243-820): Cusco's top fine-dining option is within the exclusive confines of the best hotel in town. Even if the hotel is out of reach, the restaurant makes the perfect splurge date in Cusco. Whether you sit in the glassed-in corridor overlooking the colonial patio or the main dining room that very much looks the part of 16th-century monastery, dining here is a true treat. The Peruvian specialties, like the discreet service, are impeccable.Inka Grill, Cusco (tel. 084/262-992): A popular place on the Plaza de Armas,...
Astrid y Gastón, Lima (tel. 01/444-1496): One of the coolest restaurants in the country is this stylish modern place serving a creative brand of creole-Mediterranean fare. Behind a nondescript facade in the Miraflores district, a husband/wife team cooks and runs the colorful colonial dining room and cozy bar, favored by Limeño regulars.La Hamaca, Lima (tel. 01/445-4042): A mansion stuffed to the rafters with priceless Peruvian art and antiques, and a maze of spectacularly decorated small dining rooms is a cinematic experience. Imagine you're the dueño of a sprawling hacienda while you dine on classic Peruvian preparations. Retire upstairs for an elegant evening of dancing on weekends.Las Brujas de Cachiche, Lima (tel. 01/447-1883): Celebrating 2,000 years of local culture and pre-Columbian Peruvian cuisine with ancient recipes and ingredients, this sophisticated place is a favorite of...
Peruvian food is nothing to write home about. But in Iquitos, on the lively Plaza de Armas, there are several ice cream parlors where you can relax and get somewhat refreshed (remember, it's hot and humid there).Remember, hold on to your paperwork. The fans are so powerful all loose paper will fly away.
Debout a 5h du mat, a 6h on se pointe sur la place, c est deja la grande activite dans le village.Achat de 3 bouts de pain dans une tienda, puis le must c est de se regaler d un EMOLIENTES...Emolientes c est quoi ?c est une infusion de plantes, pas de trucs achetes, ici les gens ont pas les moyens... ca vient directement des champs, il a plusieurs herbes, entieres dans une marmite ou l eau boue.Avant de vous servir un grand verre de "jus" la patrone utilise les 4 bouteilles du premier plan.. c est de la gelatine, du truc, du bidule et du machin... oui ca n a pas l aire tres ragoutant comme ca, mais c est vraiment un delice.Ca fait carburer toute la matiner, et ca rechauffe, car si la journee il fait un soleil de plomb, la nuit et le matin c est assez froid comme climat.
Juste une loupiote qui a du mal a eclairer la place.Le courant est "pirater" sur les lignes electriques au dessus du baraquement.On sacoit et on a pas vraiment a commender appart pour demander ce que l on veut comme viande au segundo, mais souvant on a que 2 ou 3 choix quand il reste du choix.La mamita nous apporte les plats (generalement copieux) on discute avec les gens a l interrieur, avec les tenanciers, c est vraiment la realite ici, et la mienne a ma facon de voyager.C est les endroit les plus sympat bien souvent et c est la que l on apprend sur le pays, et les endroits ou aller.Petit coucou a Gilles (le breton)
Petit tour dans les rade ou l on mange pour 2 soles environ... soit moins de 50centimes d euro.Toujours pareil, on commence avec "el almuerso", c est une soupe generalement assez claire, avec 2 bouts de viande bouillie, et quelques legumes, des pattes ou des patates... ou tout en meme temps.... des fois on a meme les pieds de poule, avec les doigts et les ongles... c est normal.Apres on a "el segundo" le seul truc qui change dans le segundo, c est la viande, sinon c est toujours accompagne de riz et patates et d oignons crus.... Ca vous reveille un mort!Ici si les gens n ont pas leur riz, ils ont l impretion de pas avoir mange.les viandes je passe, ce serait trop long a expliquer.Tout ca est accompagne du fameux "refresco". C est une boisson generalement froide, sauf quand le cuisto a pas eu le temps de la faire refroidire, il y a 1000 refrescos differents, suivant les regions. C est en...
