These are a few of my favorite things: the foods of Peru, in pictures

Sliced beef tenderloin served with potato and mushroom stools

Crayfish and hominy chowder

Handmade cheese and mushroom empanadas

Local fruits plate

Guinea Pig: I call it “not for me,” the Peruvians call it a “delicacy”

Lomo Saltado: by far and wide, this was my favorite dish (sliced beef, onion, bell pepper and tomato stir fry served with white rice and French fries ~ a tribute to La Chifa)

Peruvian woman about to make papaya juice

Quinoa pancakes: my favorite breakfast

The Map Cafe's lovely tangerine tart

…

Until we eat again,
