CULINARY ADVENTURE IN ARGENTINA
CULINARY ADVENTURE OF PERU
You are going to want to stay Flavors, scents, colors and textures. As with any art Peruvian cuisine exists because it pleases the senses. It is the most distinctive trait in our culture since it palpably represents the mixture that characterizes our originality. Influences from the Andes, Spain, Africa, China, Italy and Japan converge in the hundreds of dishes that is our national menu. Due to its perfect coastal position between the cold Humboldt and the warm Nino currents, Peru has a tremendous variety of fish and sea food. In the Andes region we count more than 5000 varieties of potatoes and many unique and healthy vegetables; the Amazon area adds many tropical fruits. Peru has 468 different dishes, which according to the Guinness Book of Records is the largest variety in the world. Good food is also enjoyed with good drinks and nothing better than a toast with pisco brandy, Peru’s banner drink. The table is set so come on in and join us! This culinary tour in Peru takes you to the capital Lima where we visit the central markets and learn about the impressive varieties of fruit and fishes, we dine in award winning restaurants, learn about the history of the food in Peru that dates back from pre-Inca times, cook with Peruvian chefs and combine this all with a visit to Machu Picchu, one of the new 7 wonders of the world. |
