- Join us for our favorite Peruvian Food at Tanta Restaurant in Lima, Peru. After coming to Lima, Peru several times over the years we now feel some of the best Peruvian food you can find at the city is at Gastón Acurio's Tanta Restaurante. What makes it our new favorite restaurant in Lima is the high quality of everything we've tried along with the diversity of the menu when it comes to the appetizers, mains and desserts. Everything is so beautifully prepared it looks like artwork yet without jacked up prices to match. You can come to Tanta order a lot of food and not come away with a ridiculous bill. at the end. In terms of value for Soles spent it is some of the best Peruvian food we've had in Lima to date. What do you think? Have you tried Tanta before? What is your opinion?
Here is a complete list of the Peruvian foods we sampled at Tanta:
1) Chicha Morada (Peruvian purple corn drink)
2) Cusqueña Negra (Dark Peruvian Beer)
3) Causa with chicken and peach
4) Causa pulpo with octopus
5) Trout on a slice of bread
6) Grilled scallop with cheese
7) Leche de tigre (tiger's milk with ceviche and canchita)
8) Verde Arroz con Pollo (Green rice with chicken)
9) Papa a la huancaína and Ocopa (Potatoes with creamy sauces)
10) Raspberry layer cake
11) Suspiro a la limeña (Manjar blanco caramel sauce and meringue)

Our Favorite Peruvian Food at Tanta Restaurant in Lima, Peru Travel Video Transcript:
Another day in Lima and that means another restaurant to visit. Today we are going to be eating at Tanta. This is a really famous restaurant by Gastón Acurio. It is actually a chain. It has become so popular. That they have different locations all over the city. We've been there once before. And we were so amazed by the food. The presentation. Especially the buffet table. Where you can grab like little bites to sample. A little bit of everything of Peruvian cuisine. That we were like we need to come back. We need to bring the camera. It just so happens to be one restaurant a few blocks down from our apartment. We're heading over there for lunch.
The food has arrived. Everything you can see on the table right now with the exception of the beer is all mine. One thing I love about this restaurant is that they have this huge bar with like a buffet style. Actually it is not buffet because you kind of like pick and choose what you want to have. They have like individual bites in tapas size. You can have your own customized plates basically.
If you want to sample a lot of Peruvian food without ordering a massive portion this is perfect.
I ordered two causa's. Which are made with potato. And this one has chicken and peach. And this one has octopus. I've had both of these before and I love them. I also got an empanada with ground beef and this has icing sugar on top. It is really popular for Peruvian empanadas to have icing sugar and then you squeeze a little bit of lemon. You have the sweetness and sourness.
In terms of price point that came to just over a 139 Soles which was $42 US dollars total. 21 per person and to be honest that was absolutely insane value. I mean all of the food was just incredible. I'm even going to just say it this is my favorite Peruvian restaurant right now in Lima, Peru.
This is part of our Travel in Peru video series showcasing Peruvian food, Peruvian culture and Peruvian cuisine.

GREAT VIDEO ! LOVE PERUVIAN FOOD ! ARRIBA PERU !
Yo trabajo ahí y para mí es un placer que les haya gustado todo. Perú los espera con los brazos abiertos.
I really have to thank you! My brother has traveled to Lima in a work trip and today he had a free time. After I watched your videos, I told him: you gotta visit Tanta! He went there this night! The Tanta at Larcomar Mall. He drank chicha morada and ordered a dish named jarana criolla, small portions of causa, anticucho, tamales, papa huancaína! He loved the place! And thanks to you with your great videos and travel tips. I wasn't in Lima but told him everything I saw in your Peruvian food adventure!😉😃
Thank you very much Bruno! That is so cool he liked it! Honestly, Tanta is one of the best :) How long will he be in Lima?
@@samuelandaudrey He is already back! He just spent this last week there!
@@samuelandaudrey Next week I will be visiting him in Brasilia, where he lives, and will get my Peruvian gifts 😃 he brought me Tejas, chicha morada in powder (just throw in the water and there comes the juice) and coca Tea)
That is very exciting to hear!
The peruvian food is incredible. Proud to be peruvian🇵🇪♥️😊

Funny thing is I get excited to see other people enjoying my Peruvian food , gives me this sense of pride . I am a father of 2 beautiful kids in the USA and I am always sharing Peruvian experiences with them and nothing makes me more proud when I see my kids eating Peruvian food
That is wonderful to hear! Peruvian food is delicious.

Please request your Mum or Aunt to cook the green rice n chicken n make a video of it.... it looks amazing🤤
I can give you the recipe
lagatimelodica please... thank you
That is a great idea :)
marsha bijoy Cut and fry onions with a bit of garlic. Add yellow chili (ají amarillo) liquefied with VERY few water, when the onion starts gilding and wait for a couple of minutes. Add boiled shredded chicken breast, and after 3 ó 4 minutes, add salt, and white bread soaked in milk. You may add to the mix a little bit of turmeric (not too much) on the onions; and, if you need more water, use the one you used for cooking the chicken breast. You may decorate with half boiled eggs and maybe a dark olive :)
Looked amazingly delicious 😋
Thanks! It was delicious.
Execelente vídeo, me daré una vuelta por ahí. 🖒☺
gracias
Nice!!!!
Thank you!
I am going to Lima neext april and my hotel is sooo close to Tantra!!! I wanna try everything you did
Do not forget to visit a peruvian Chifa
It is the fusion of peruvian and cantonese chinese food.
Oh, Chifa is awesome.
Que rico todooooo😍😍😍😍
Gracias!
Eso es.el.1x ciento de la.gran gastronomía.peruan que lograste probar .
Es comida deliciosa.
Tienes que ir a provincia y visitar las picanterias en Piura y Arequipa , son históricamente geniales
Great food. A must when visiting Peru.
Thank you Adolfo!
@@samuelandaudrey You're welcome. I love your videos
Wow. So many damn beautiful and awesome goodie I've ever eaten. I'm speechless. I'm drooling. I"m starving....What's more! Please show me more and more of these gorgeous goodies LOL! I won't get tired of them.
Thank you! We'd love to go back to that restaurant for a part 2 video in the future :)
Wait for me Perú
:)
I love Audrey's sweater! It looks so Peruvian and comfortable. And the food looks amazing, as always! I've never tried tiger's milk...it looks like an acquired taste but I totally want to try it at least once!
Thank you! She's been cozy wearing it. I hope you can try it soon :)
What is the tiger milk? You make the food look so good, you make me hungry. A lot of dessert, I bet that meal is going to be high priced. LOL
You can have an 8/10 lunch with 30 to 40 soles ~ 9- 12 usd, peruvian restaurants in that range of price are so good 🤗🤗
@@bgluiz es porque te pone como un tigre, es muy afrodisíaco xd
Yees, that restaurant is pretty expensive but the food worth it, it's delicious!
Disfruten de nuestra vasta gastronomía , el arroz con pollo con su papa ala huancaína una delicia , una delicia, su chicha morada ya me voy corriendo a almorzar 👍 , disfruten su estadía...
Gracias. Hay mucho para comer en Perú.
Peruvian food is the best.
Welcome to Perú !!!
Thank you!
The peach and chicken seems like it would be amazing. Presentation on the scallop was nice. I'll take the empanada over the roast chicken and then finish out with the chocolate cake with some coffee. Hard to imagine getting through everything that was on your table.
Thanks! It is an intereswting combo.
Empanadas mis favoritas buenisimas !!
Ellos son tan deliciosos.
You should try the restaurant Isolina in the district of Barranco. It's really good. (Try the Lomo saltado, seco de asado de tira, mollejitas)
Thank you very much for the recommendation!
Muito bom! Vocês entendem Português?
Eu siim. Fica convidado a Lima: a capital gastronômica de América. Não é ã toa que tem dois dos dentro dos top 10, dos melhores restaurantes do mundo
Se parece bastante al espagnol! 🤗👍
What a rainbow of flavors.
Thank you!
u guys made the best decision ever, Tanta is one of the most important restaurant by far
Ya me dió hambre 🤤 🇵🇪
Ojalá pudiéramos compartir.
No se preocupen por mi . Soy peruano , siempre como rico 😋😉🙋♂️ gracias !
If you married a peruvian he can cook this food to you every single day !!! Just think about it ! Plus peruvians are definitely friendlier,conservatives, and not crazy "Mama Mia", trios like Americans! .... Each region has it's own tipycal food... Jungle , highland and coast !!!.... but dont get me wrong! American food is good too those pies, oysters , hate your pickles though but theres a shrimp and grapefruit... the original recipe from Irma rombauer!! Its a great American dish !! Barbecues ... Each country has it's own uniqueness... As a peruvian I used to thought that our food is truly awesome but I believe each person grows with his own preferences in each country!! And maybe we peruvians can not do tickets to united states cause ofc its expensive or else we will enjoy the American food! But once again each single people has it's own preferences and unique flavor favorites dishes that loved eating while growing! ... by the way you visited tanta (Miraflores)!! ... why dont you visit Villa Maria del Triunfo - Pesquero - Av pachacutec. The only fishing terminal in that Avenue... the second floor it's where you will find the restaurants and for the prize of your last meal! The green rice with chicken you could have like 4 ceviche... cause miraflores is for tourism ... more expensive !! Dam Villa Maria del Triunfo ... that fishing terminal it's so underrated!!... well have a good one !
@@Fluor66 No homo but wont cook for you!😂
American food = fat = obese
@@n.t.26Do they look fat?.
is not our fault that you are not capable to balance your food.
Those causas look amazing . I went to Peru in august and I had samuels main dish . DELICIOUS!!
Btw is Audrey half Peruvian ? Her Spanish is awesome
Yes she is! Her mom is Peruvian and her dad is Argentinian lol great combo I think.
Thank you very much Dave! Yeah, Audrey's Mom is from Peru and her Dad is from Argentina so she learned to speak Spanish at home.
Todo está bueno
gracias.
best food of the wolrd Peru
It certainly is incredible!
hummm que buen gusto
gracias
WAOOOOO BRUTAL :'$ FOOD
I just love you guys. Take care from Bethlehem Pa. Can't forget the grill master your wonderful father and then of course the STAR....... TOGO
Thank you! We love spending time with them.
When I saw the woman with all those different kinds of desserts, I thought: "oh my are they gonna eat all of that? Did they order all that much? 😁🤣
Hahahah....we would do something like that ;)
El chef Franceses Timour no se resiste de la gastronomía Peruana, dice que lo que paso en Perú, en Francia no lo saben de comida Peruana, buen probecho amigos, Delicious 🤔🙄😋😋
I recommend this restaurant is the best in the world.
Thanks! We loved it there.
Mesmamente 😀😁
Me dio arta hambre.
I ate in Gaston Acurio Restaurant in Madrid and Barcelona its so good.
That is so cool to hear.
nice... 🍤🍲
Thank you!
looks like your cheeks are back to normal.. the food at that place looks so good especially the potato's. and them deserts omg
Thank you! She's feeling a lot better.
I am hungry now! Do you guys plan to do a comprehensive visit to Bolivia, it is off the beaten path, but has many hidden treasures!
We'd love to do that.
Jajaja la Señito del 0:40
hahahaha q buenaaaaaaa!!!
You should go to Nakamura's huarique,here in Lima, that's the best lomo saltado I've had ever try!!
Thanks for that recommendation.
Ñam ñam food 🇵🇪
🤤
:)
I've never seen empanada with sugar and lemon. I'll be going to Buenos Aires next weekend, do you think they'll find strange there if I order an empanada and ask them for sugar and lemon to put on top of it to see how it tastes? 😁😁 There I recommend for empanadas El Sanjuanino in Recoleta!
I wonder if you can get one like that!
What happens to your diet, Sam is it on a holiday! But then the food is really good. Glad to see Audrey doing fine!
Hehehe...thank you!
Delicias peruanas
En efecto.
Es arroz verde jjee, the peruvian food is especial and delicious and i love this food but I've never been at Tanta :(
se llama arroz con pollo 💕
Si muy rico , como toda la comida Peruana
Gracias. Hope you can try there.
🤤🤤🤤😋😋
:)
Hi to both of you guys. BTW Audrey, how are you feeling after pulling out your wisdom teeth? I hope you're feeling better. As for food at Tanta, the food looks amazing......as for the main dish, it was humongous, but I am sure you devoured it to the last bit :)
She is feeling much better now. Thanks.
Audreys looking pretty !! You should apply little lipstick as you hv in this video ..its like a cherry on cake...u look refreshing !!
tiene que visitar el restaurante del arica vicky MI Barrunto. y promuebanlo
El gringuito come con unas ganaaaas... extraño mi tierraaa :c
Great video. I love your videos because you explain everything so well. Empanadas????? YUMMYI am not sure if you are aware that Tanta means bread in Quechua, the language of the Incas.
Thank you very much!. Oh, we didn't know that.
La mejor comida del mundo es la peruana y punto
Más humildad compare, mas humildad , en el mundo hay muy buenas comidas también y la peruana esta dentro de ellas.
SI es muy buena la comida peruana pero no es la mejor del mundo
Todos los países dicen lo mismo
Paloma a la brasa. Platillo bandera de la gastronomía peruana.
Fabrizzio Salazar Gaona pues no conoces la comida española la peruana esta en 5 lugar como la mejor del mundo primero esta España, Francia, Japón
Hahahaha the ceviche was spicy!
Thanks it sure was!
hey Samuel música intro ? Is great
Guys you can do a colab video with "elcholomena" and let him show you some restaurants in lima. it'd be a great video 😊😊
Thanks! We'd love to do that in the future.
Guys did you have to book for Tanta ?
We arrived early so we didn't but if you eat at around 12:30 or 1 you might need one.
@@samuelandaudrey cheers!
Given I've never had Chicha Morada, don't you think perhaps some lime/citrusy fruit needs to be added to make it better? honestly, I am not so much into sweet drinks.....
That would be a nice addition.
Are you coming back to Argentina?
Yes, we plan to again very soon.
How many pounds did you earn in Lima that way? Definitely not enough. Try regional peruvian food as well, from the south there is Arequipa, and from the north Trujillo and Chiclayo. Provecho !
Thanks! We did gain a bit ;) Would love to try more regional food.
🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
:)
I want that scallop and the whole desert plate.
Thanks! Wish we could share.
it's funny how you call the average choclo "giant corn", theres is actually a giant corn called "maíz gigante cuzqueño" twice the size of choclo's grains. Must try that guys
Oh wow! We need to try that!
You guys must walk ten miles a day to stay skinny. That food looks great.
And taste better!
Is it real tiger s milk ..or just a name ??
is just a name
Just its name
