Peru is a very beautiful country that is worth returning to as many times as possible. Their gastronomy, their culture, and wonderful people make them unique.
Hi there, love your video. Just for interest, Asian cuisine influence is big in Peru. Ceviche is influenced by the Japanese community, (sashimi), lomo saltado by the Chinese, it's cooked on a wok and soya sauce is the key ingredient, sometimes oyster sauce as well. In fact 90% of Peruvians have soya sauce, oyster sauce and sesame oil in their kitchen cabinet. Hope you return .
Whenever I'm in Lima, I always think that it resembles LA. Big coastal city on a bay, people love surfing and beach culture, cliffs above the beach, people dress in that casual LA way. Great sunsets at the beach.
As a side note, the song you heard everybody singing in mercado San Ramon is called "Contigo Perú", it was composed by Polo Campos in 1977 as a request from former president Francisco Morales Bermúdez, it was meant to be a song for our national football (Soccer) team, supposedly they closed the deal and Polo Campos went for a coffee, he started composing on the back of his coffee recipt and finished the song 15 minutes later. Nowadays it's more like Perús second anthem, that's why everybody was singing along. As a Peruvian I swear every time I hear that song I get goosebumps like every other Peruvian. I really liked your video, thanks for visiting my country and sharing your experience.
I love in the USA, but I'm in Peru now visiting my family after 4 years and I love Peruvian food so much... Even eating at my mom's house is like a 5 ⭐ restaurant for me 😅💕
Thanks for showing to the world my wonderful Peru. Peruvians are hospitality and nice persons with tourists. I wish you both come back to my country very soon in order to continue knowing marvelous places and enjoying our delicious gastronomic. God bless you!
Thanks for coming to Lima. Thanks for visiting my country, my city. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Come back soon and visit some other cities, you will find so more magical places and wonderful sensations.
Your experience was very good and personally I prefer not very popular restaurants to eat since the food is equal to or even better than the big places.
You guys opened my appetite, watching all that great Food, my God,....welcome to lima and all peru🍐 whenever you ready guys to eat the 😘 best again,....thanks for your visits,....greetings from the USA ny,...
It hurts my feelings when you try Chifa and ask for Vegetarian food 🥹😭... Guys you need to give another chance to Chifa ... Is our beloved food ... Hope you back to Lima!! ... But your video ... Was AMAZING... Have a new follower!!
It went way beyond our expectations! Definitely underrated. We got duped by a few Google reviews but the places that were good were incredible. For me, too 3 would be ceviche, pollo a la brasa, and lomo saltado. I think Amanda liked the cuy
@@chrisandamanda490 Peruvian food is Peru’s best well-kept secret. As a matter of fact, there are people from Buenos Aires, Bogota o Santiago de Chile that fly regularly to Lima for food tours and fine dining considering that currently Central Restaurant is ranked 2nd in the world while Maido Restaurant is ranked 11th.

I have lived in Cali for most of my life and love it here but I love Perú, there’s nothing like it, especially my city Miraflores♥️, thank you for your wonderful video🙌🏼
Hello guys, I'm Peruvian from a northern city, and I didn't know about the 3 color fish dish, hopefully it was good. I'm so glad you enjoyed being in Lima. Come back, that Perú is waiting for you, with open arms.🇵🇪🇵🇪❤️❤️
We don't want to say anything bad about the dishes, but all the heavy sauce on the fish was a little strange for us. But Peruvian cuisine in general is a true gift to the world! Thank you, friend
Heyy guysss!!, I'm happy for your visit to my country, i hope you come back soon, the food is very delicuous, really!!!! It's one of the best of the world. Blessings
Very good video. Lima is an under rated city, however, it's beautiful, the only capital of sudamerica with the coast of the pacific ocean. We, the people who live here are very nice with foreigners that visit our city. Thanks for coming.
I liked your video. I was asking my self where is the place where you had your ceviche. The one where u called the leche de tigre a "nectar of the gods".
Well, after visiting Perú, you should go a bit above and visit Ecuador which also has beautiful landscapes and its gastronomy is also excellent. There you can also find the National Park YASUNI right in the middle of the jungle. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
If you ever visit Lima again and want to taste worthy local asian/peruvian food (it has a long history) you should go to other neighborhoods: San Borja and the old Chinatown in Downtown Lima.
Es impresionante como extranjeros tratan de gustar de lima , no estoy tirando hate , pero hay que ser consientes que este departamento es el peor por obligación donde vivir , si la delincuencia es jodidamente alta , la contaminación, sus ciudadanos , etc . Como dije no tiro hate en donde vivo , PERO hay que ver la realidad y la realidad es esa . Edit : lo único salvable de Lima es su comida ya que como ser capital están los mejores restaurantes, pero eso no quita lo anterior dicho.
Lo que sucede es que los turistas solo se mueven en San Isidro, Barranco y Miraflores, y un poco el Centro histórico. Por eso creen que Lima es lo máximo
The food here in lima is godly!! Most people here in Peru dont use trip advisor or such rating apps for restaurants, we mostly recomend trough word of mouth or social media. So most reviews you will find on google are made by foreigners that consider the food is good but not the locals. Your best bet to try the best food in lima is to get recomendations from locals or by looking at locals social media, there are many gastronomic gurus that go around the city to try and rate the best food around. Next time you come consider that, there is so much more you have not tried such as anticuchos, picarones, caldo de gallina, chanfainita, rocoto relleno and much more, definately hope you come back to try more places!!!
😍El Chinito , 😍Cuy with ajiaco de papas and if you visit Lima again the best Chinese restaurant is. Chifa Taiwán Av. Arnaldo Márquez 1201, Jesús María 15072, Peru , my family goes there since the 1970's.
Great video an Honesty view of my culture, but Perú is more than Lima...for your next trip , you could add more days and travel around to the north..there are nice beaches. And excellent views.
Just in case, you can find really good chicken a la brasa in combos with fried potatoes and soda for cheaper price, at the supermarket 'Metro' or 'Wong'. It can be used as well to prepare sandwiches with melted cheese, is really yummy. Those supermarkets sell really nice Chicken Tamales too. ⭐
Nice video of you 2 guys, a lil' disappointed that some dishes were not performed and tasted as they should be. You basically ate what all tourist do, and that give you a perspective of the tip of the iceberg that is our gastronomy. Kudos for the channel.
I liked your video and is good to know u loved my city. But if u think ppl from Lima is friendly you have to visit other places that are even warmer with the visitors. Besides that, for instance, Cusco, Tarapoto and Arequipa are other places u must go to if you come back to my country again. Cheers!
Very nice video. I hope you get the chance to learn more about the fascinating history of Perú and visit the inlands as well. In terms of your food review, you should know that what you have tried is not Chinese food, it is Chinese-Peruvian cuisine called Chifa, it is a fusion, and that is what enhances Peru's richness; the influence of so many ethnicities that you will see reflected in the gastronomy, demographic make up, customs and inclusiveness. There is much more to see in Lima
Thank you so much for letting us know about Chifa. That was our dumb mistake assuming it was Chinese food. We will definitely try Chifa again with a different mind. We hope to learn much more about Peru’s rich history.
Fact is, Chifa is catered to the Peruvian taste bubs, consequently, it wouldn't appease the exquisite Asian connoisseur. Like apple and oranges. Like American pizza to italians. Hope it helps. Cheers.
Are you guys still on the road? Long trips are so not quintessential American decisions. Good on you for this. Subed to watch more and see what you are up to. As a culinary anthropologist, I am so looking forward to this food culture. We are so excited to be in Peru next month and film it for our channel. Machu Picchu is #1 on my bucket list. We are a father and son who travel the World to plant trees, clean beaches and teach people about culture, history, and natural wonders. Glad to find your stuff and hope you might like ours too. - Bear
Wow! thank you so much for your comment. We ended our nonstop traveling a few months...BUT...we extended for another year and have based ourselves in Saigon, Vietnam. We both took a long break from making videos to work on some other projects but I'm back at it. I taught high school anthropology for 4 years. It was more like an Anthro appreciation class 😄 but what an amazing job you have! We have lots of food to show
didnt you try aji de gallina? im peruvian and that's my favorite dish, also carapulcra; please you need to come back and try those!!! Im so happy seeing you guys had fun in my country☺☺

Bienvenidos a Perú !!!!!
Belle Lima.
This was a fun video, Did Peruvian food meet your expectations? Was it over rated? Got into tourist traps? What were your 3 favorite Peruvian dishes?
It went way beyond our expectations! Definitely underrated. We got duped by a few Google reviews but the places that were good were incredible. For me, too 3 would be ceviche, pollo a la brasa, and lomo saltado. I think Amanda liked the cuy

Visitaron Lima y no fueron al centro histórico??? Miraflores y Barranco son solo 2 distritos de Lima.
Hi from Perú!!!
Love the old part of the city. It looks like Europe because of the architecture.
Well, after visiting Perú, you should go a bit above and visit Ecuador which also has beautiful landscapes and its gastronomy is also excellent. There you can also find the National Park YASUNI right in the middle of the jungle. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@La T¡grA , en mi próximo viaje a Perú, tengo planeado ir via Guayaquil ó Quito, deseo conocer algunos lugares de Ecuador.
Oh man you guys missed out on the chifa but can always go back
What was the name of the ceviche place you liked please? You two are so fun! It’s like traveling with friends. Thank you!! We subscribed!! Have fun
