  Chala

Chala is a ancient word used by our native people, way before castilian was even spoken. Chala is a strep of coastal land which expands inland from the shores of Peru, up to 500 meters above the seal level.
Chala is a fertile and biologically diverse zone in wich brave adventorous men handed down the fruit of their culture in the form of the most enjoyable cuisine in the continent.
Our Chef, and chala's crew as a whole, has traveled the coast of the world, just us our ancient predecessors did, in search of new taste and techniques. As a result, we have come up with a unique menu which blends the sensuality of oriental cuisine, the elegance of mediterranean flavor, and the wholesomeness of our own coastal cuisine.

 Huaca Pucllana

Pucllana was an important ceremonial and administrative location. Its magnificence was reflected by the configuration of a monumental architecture. It was built with small adobe bricks wrought on a continuous base of blocks and remodeled during the three centuries of the Huaca existence.

 Cusco  
 Map

 It is one of Cusco's most stylish and elegant restaurants. Housed in a modern, minimalist glass-and-steel box with few adornments other than views of the handsome colonial patio it sits in the middle of -- Casa Cabera, now the beautifully designed Museo de Arte Precolombino -- it places its focus squarely on the elegantly prepared and presented food. This is much more than a museum cafe. At dinner, the chef presents a four-course, menu (including a glass of wine, selected from one of the city's best wine lists), which is actually a fair deal given the high quality and service.

 

Divina Comedia

The food is a fusion of local Purvian meat and produce with classic french technique. I had the Ostrich and my buddy had the Alpaca and both were perfectly cooked. We shared three or four tapas to start and those where fantastic too. Desert left me wanting more. Wine list was well rounded and very afordable
The best part is that they during dinner service they have Opera singers acompanied by a piano or harp!! They have the Opera Singers buss tables between shows

  Chicha

Overlooking Cusco’s charming Plaza Regocijo, the excellent and very popular new restaurant Chicha is the latest venture of Astrid & Gastón, Peru’s best and most intriguing restaurant group, founded by chef Gastón Acurio and his German wife, Astrid, in 1994. (The only son of an old Peruvian family, Acurio was sent to Spain to study law, but eventually discovered his real vocation as a cook and met his wife while doing a course at the Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris). The very appealing and reasonably priced menu offers a choice between Acurio’s reinterpretation of traditional Andean dishes — Peruvian cuisine is in fact very regional — and a selection of contemporary Peruvian dishes served at the group’s many restaurants in Lima.

  Cicciolina

You will find Cicciolina on the second floor of an old colonial house in Cuzco. A restaurant with distinct ambiants that have their own vibes.
Perfect for a glass of Wine and Tapas in the bar area, or for more formal dining in the comfort of the intimate restaurant.
They are very picky with their ingredients. They respect original flavours and and fussily choose the freshest of vegetables and herbs from the Sacred Valley. Rescuing and understanding the importance of each product to finally make the finished dish, to create the Fiesta to dine.

Sacred Valley  
  KerosOwner and Chef Ricardo Behar settled in Urubamba a few years ago to open his restaurant 3 Keros.

Fresh products, the best meat imported from Argentina and fish flew in from Lima guarantees first class dishes on your table.
  Huacatay

El Huacatay derives its name from the typical aromatic Andean herb huacatay, which is commonly used in the Peruvian kitchen.

Pio is the chef here and will make sure you enjoy a great lunch or dinner in a fine atmosphere. Let yourself be surprised with beautifully presented dishes and not so regular Peruvian ingredients like harina de Coca (flour of coca leaves), Maiz morado (purple corn), camote (sweet potato), or yuca relleno (stuffed yuca) to just name a few.

 Arequipa  
 Sol de Mayo

A 5-minute taxi ride from the centro in Yanahuara, the city's nicest residential neighborhood, this longtime stalwart (it's been around for more than a century) is the standard-bearer for Arequipeño cooking. A favorite of upscale locals and tourists alike, it has the most delightful setting of the city's restaurants. The colonial tables are set around the edges of a breezy, picture-perfect courtyard with thick grass, geraniums, a small pool and cascading waterfall, and strolling altiplano musicians. There are also indoor dining rooms inside the brick-red and yellow sillar stone building, but nothing beats eating outdoors here. Peruvian specialties are Sol de Mayo's calling card: chicharrón de chancho (fried pork), ostrich, fresh shellfish, and a tantalizing lineup of ceviche. Starters include a yummy mixed salad of choclo (white corn), tomato, and avocado

 Tradicion Arequipeña

Among the restaurants in Arequipa, Tradición Arequipeña is one of the most highly recommended by locals. Located a few kilometers outside of town in the district of Paucarpata, this restaurant has an elegant atmosphere with gardens and spectacular views of the snow-capped peak of El Misti. The menu includes such traditional Peruvian dishes as cuy, adobo, ceviche, and a variety of chupes, or seafood soups. In addition to the stunning views, the restaurant serves its heaping plates of Peruvian food with a side of live music, and on Saturdays at 5 p.m. an orchestra will accompany your meal.

  Truco II

If you’re in the mood for Middle Eastern food, then El Turko II is definitely the place to go. The immaculate wood floors, high sillar ceilings, and intriguing modern art provide a great atmosphere to savor the Middle Eastern flavors so rarely found in Peru. Choose from a menu of mouth-watering hummus, falafel, lamb kebab, and eggplant dishes. A slightly smaller, more affordable version of this restaurant is located down the street.
