Don’t be shocked, but CEVICHE is actually originally from Peru. They invented it, it’s in the history books, and that’s why it makes sense that they have the most variety of that dish. It’s also the national food dish. Mexico and Costa Rica and all other countries you have ate from just have their take on it. It’s like how Americans have their take on tacos. Word travels around quickly and customs merge.

It's not a tourist trap! I'm not so sure about the exact numbers, but I think Peru has like 4 of the Best 50 restaurants in the WORLD... and they're all in the Miraflores area. Besides that, it has always been an upscale district, so that could explain the prices. But even so I really think it's worth the try because peruvian cuisine is top notch!
And the restaurant they went to isn't even considered a "very expensive restaurent", it´s in the like middle ranges of "expensive" (i recognize it).

@@DelightfulTravellers what other country has ceviche? Other countries cook or steam the fish and put in a bunch of vegetables. They make salad or cocktail. Ceviche is raw fish marinated in citrus. That is all. If the fish is cooked or steamed or if it is just one ingredient among many, it is not ceviche. People may add chocolate if they want to to make it more delicious but it would not be ceviche. It is a dish of the coastal people who only had the sea as a source of food and needed to marinate de raw fish with anything strong so they won't die a horrible death. They weren't making a cocktail or a salad for tourists.

@@huminicida - Indeed is a pre-incan dish, dated around the Moche Empire. But since Onions and Lime did not make its way to South America by then, the region used the juice from a sour fruit named Tumbo. Coast empires relied alot on seafood and there's even traces in Paracas that fish was dried in order to preserve it and commercialize it to the Andes.
It is believed that more than 2000 years ago in the Peruvian coast, the Mochica culture prepared a dish based on fresh fish, which was cooked with juice of a local fruit called tumbo(citric); then in the time of the Incas, fish was macerated with chicha, and it was until the arrival of the Spaniards when the ingredients that we know today in ceviche were added: lemon and onion. According to the historian Javier Pulgar Vidal, the word "seviche" comes from "Siwichi" which is a Quechua terminology that translates as fresh or tender fish. Other versions are also discussed as "cebiche" from the word bait, used to refer to a delicacy or food...I would like to invite you to Chiclayo, where the Moche culture flourished, and Chachapoyas where the Sachapuyos had their Empire, Peru is not only Lima and Cuzco . Very welcome to Peru. :)
@@Winnieberth firstly you have no idea where i am. Secondly i do not need any invitation from anyone. I have more than 1 passport and I can go anywhere in the world that i wish to go. Peru is one place that i will never visit again though, that is for sure.
The potato, corn, and many other earth products are originally from Perú. We have more than 3,000 variety of potato, and many of corn, from 4,000 to 2,000 years before Christ. One of them are the sweet potato and the “choclo” (kind of big corn) that goes with the ceviche. The pre-Incas even at that time (BC) ate the fish row only cook with a fruit juice (tumbo) and ají. The “anticuchos “ were introduces in our gastronomy by the slaves from Africa, the conquers (spaniels) ate the meat of the cows, and to the servants they gave the interiors of the animal: heart, liver, kidneys, tripes or stomach, lungs, etc. And they used our spices, herbs, ají, etc and creates many, many delicious dishes. The picarones are made with sweet potato, pumpkin, anise and flower, fried, you eat it with a sweet honey call “chancaca”. Perú has more of 490 original dishes, after the fusion of the different cultures arrived. First the native product, then Spaniel influence, French (after their revolution many came to Perú), African slaves, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, German, etc. Also we have more of 250 different desserts. I hope I have help you to understand, a little bit, our love for our gastronomy and for the presents our land (pachamama: Mother Earth in Quechua) gives us. Aahhhh, Miraflores is a tourist site, so many of the restaurants are more expensive. Next time try to eat in the “mercados” (markets?)
Yes, you are right, the corn is from Mexico, there have been many discrepancies about it in the FAO, but they have recently said that the first corn is from that area
Cañete is like 2 to 3 hours from lima and it actually alot closer to the ocean so their seafood is amazing. I love peruvian food just wishes that people would try more variety than lomo, ceviche, papa a la huancaena. Its become to popularized here in NY
@@xDiilllToullllliiiDx anywhere else the area wont look as nice but food is so much cheaper and better. The causa they had was 9 US dollars the same plate should cost 8 soles which is around 2.4 dollars
Chef timour is from France but lives in Perú; if you're open to suggestions, he can tell you what places to go as the restaurant you visited didn't seem like the best, there were missing ingredients on couple of dishes.
Ceviche was created in Peru. Pisco is also from Peru. Miraflores is one of the more expensive places in Lima because of the amount of tourists. Staying and eating in Lima is usually cheap.
Yes, for sure you can get those dishes much cheaper and more delicious in other places near Miraflores, like Magdalena, Lince, Surquillo, even Callao etc...but probably will need some guide...if you try everything in Miraflores, will probably not get the real flavor of our Peruvian dishes...
5 veces o 3 más barato ajajaj por favor de caretilla con ese dinero consigues de oota de anda busca un ceviche de Mero, lenguado o corvina al precio que dices🤣🤣
Quieren conocer la comida Prueben comida callejera , Anticuchos, papas rellenas ; Humitas, luego vayan a Un Mercado; algún restaurante y al final a los restaurantes caros... ve tan que comer en Perú a parte de ser Rico es muy económico. Claro , 0asen 1ero 1 o 2 días adaptando estomago a las especies y ahí es con el que se hace mucha de la comida. Buen Provecho P.d. Pollo a la Brasa con ensalada Ají y mayonesa , un manjar
Hey guys, I’m Peruvian, currently living in Australia and I miss peruvian food like hell. I was watching your video and glad to see you enjoyed our food, regardless the misunderstanding about the ceviche, just to clarify, yes you will find ceviche everywhere and that’s fine, few months ago a ate a ceviche in Indonesia, it was really good, but just for your records, ceviche is originally from Perú and I’m proud that it has spread around the world!!!
The prices depend on the restaurant you wanna eat. There a lot of places you can enjoy peruvian food in low costs. For example the "mercados" . Inside them there are little places you can try delicious and cheap food. Ask people around where you can find a "mercado".
@@DelightfulTravellers PICARONES just have the texture and the flavor of sweet potato and pumpkin without any sugar, you have to super dip it into the syrup,
The juice in a ceviche is called Leche de Tigre or Tiger's Milk, but actually there are no tigers in Peru. It has that name because in Peru it's the best cure for hangovers.
Tienen comentarios súper irrespetuosos, debieron investigar un poco más porque Perú es un lugar con excelente comida y a bajos precios; pero como en todos los países hay restaurantes carisimos y ustedes solo muestran eso.
Sm shock at these two blogers... no freaking idea what they are saying... before they travel to ANY country a little research goes a long way... many sad comments from these two.
Peruvian ceviche is the best for me…. (OPINION). I fell in love with it when my family and I went there. It’s just sooooo good! Peruvian dishes are some of my ULT favorite.
You want to eat something delicious and inexpensive, real food street? Go to the Mercado de Surquillo and you will find wonderful food, you will not regret it. And you will pay a fifth of what you paid!! Thanks for the video!!
Lima is typically very cheap, Miraflores is one of the more expensive places. Miraflores is where the more rich people live and where a lot of tourist in Lima choose to live, that's why it is more expensive. Love this video
Actually you are right. The área where you was is one of the most expensive área in Lima. Beside of that the plates were really small. Unfortunally some of the best street food are in area a little diferent
Wow, the ceviche looked intimidating. I actually think the cow heart looked really good! I’m not sure what I would think of pumpkin onion rings, I’d have a hard time getting past sweet onion rings 😂
Churros originated in Spain, Mexican churros are just a take on it. You should’ve gone to Manolo which is a block and half away from where you had the picarones for the Peruvian take on churros. Everything is much more expensive in that area of Miraflores, it’s mostly a tourist area
Anticucho is a fusión and adaptation between Perú and Áfricans slaves, history says rich People in Perú Just eat the meat of the cow but throw away the heart, lung, kidneys and the Áfricans slaves cooked it and eat, but peruvians saw it and started to cooked it and start the fusion between both continents
We travel a lot and any of countries we mentioned that have Ceviche do a great version. It might not be like Peru's version but it's still great. That's like saying other countries can't do pizza - Trevor
I tried Ceviche in Puerto Rico (had carrots, was rather sweet and dry. Horrrendous) and in Mexico (was ok, but to call it ceviche.... too far from that). Peruvian Ceviche is beyond amazing. Yea, I'm Peruvian and tho I am biased, I try to be as neutral as possible.
@@huminicida true.. there's no way to know where exactly it comes from.. I'm Peruvian therefore I think Peruvian ceviche is fantastic, but saying that it's from Peru that's just silly
Yes , those prices are right. Lima is the capital gastronomic of the world ! Glad you tried Peruvian cuisine! Thanks for the video ! Hugs from Switzerland 🇨🇭!
i'm Peruvian and those places are good... but not enough, there are so many places to visit with special foods like Seco de Res, Pachamanca, Thimpo anyway, great video By the way
Leche De Tigre is the sauce/dressing the ceviche is in and it's not a milk it's a base of lime juice, salt, pepper, aji Amarillo (Peruvian yellow pepper), onion, and cilantro. (There are different variations even within the country of Peru but this is the most common base to work from) The milky look is actually caused from the combination of ingredients with the fish. It is very common to drink leche de tigre separate from the ceviche also (Sometimes when drinking in separate in a small glass they do add a bit of pisco to the mix). Also like everyone has been mentioning you are in the most touristy area causing it to be more expensive. The best places to eat usually and best prices are the places that typically look like someone's house (hole in the wall type place) and street vendors outside of miraflores.
I’m Peruvian living in USA... we love fish because we know the taste of it.... we eat it fresh, never frozen and most probably the fish you eat for lunch in a restaurant was swimming few hours ago,; they go to the fish market at 4-5am to buy the best fishes. On the other hand, eating fish in USA is totally deferent experience because they have been frozen before so I understand why people don’t like seafood much here.... they don’t know the real taste of freshness.
Thanks for watching Fernando! Any coastal city / town in the USA or Canada (which is where we are from) has fresh fish. It's the same kind of thing. They catch it in the morning and if you want, you can eat it that day. That happens all over the world and not just in Peru. That all said, your seafood in Peru is exceptional. It's some of the best we've tried 👍 - Trevor
Living close to the ocean in USA doesn’t mean that you have access to fresh ( not frozen) fish... according to FDA freezing the fish is part of the process to kill parasites... for sushi/cebiche the requirement is if I remember well is -4 degrees for 7 days minimum.... so, most probably if you didn’t catch your fish you have been eaten frozen fish as “Fresh” . Even if you go to Costco to buy “fresh” seafood, there is a little sign saying that they have been frozen previously. And the FDA allows to market it as “fresh” under their parameters.
@@fernandolino6493 we live in a small city called Halifax on the east coast of Canada. The fish is fresh. Sure they freeze it too for big box stores. But it's pretty easy to find freshly caught fish here to buy and cook at home or at a restaurant. You can even buy it off the wharf from fisherman - Trevor
Canada is not USA and I don’t know the regulations in your country but it’s a fact that most American don’t eat fresh fish, they don’t even know the taste of real orange juice.( recently squeezed, no added sugars, colors and real pulp) and a lot more vegetables and meat.... the chicken taste different, the Yelp of the eggs have very pale yellow color, etc .... I read a lot comments not only in your channel regarding seafood, and I can tell the consumption is very low comparing with other countries..the quality is very poor in general... flounder is very delicious fish but here even if you pay premium the flavor is disgusting, the texture is not firm as it should be. By the way, pisco is far from tequila.... pisco is made of grapes(wine) , the oldest distillery in America is in Peru ( hacienda la Caravedo, since 1684) , Pisco is considered a Brandy and one of the finest liquors because of the quality and process to produce it..... I think you need eight bottles of wine to get one bottle of pisco.
I ate with only 7 soles (3,5 CAD$) and it was very good! If you go to public local markets where everything is fresh, you will pay for the dish and not for the place, you should try it next itme
MIRAFLORES and SAN ISIDRO are the FINANCIAL and BANKING CENTERS of Peru. Everything is expensive there. Next time, you should try to explore other districts of Lima and other parts of Peru. Food prices are 1/5 of what you spent in Miraflores. Cost of living in PERU is very low also. The American Dollar can go a long way in Peru. You can live in Peru for $1,000 dollars per month. I am glad you liked Peruvian food. Many of your fellow countrymen and citizens from around the world fly long distances just to go on a food tour in Lima. Great video.
Ceviche originated in Peru not Mexico or Costa Rica, nowadays many countries throughout the Americas have their own version. The word ceviche comes from the Quechuan word “siwichi” meaning fresh fish. It has been consumed by northern Peruvians for nearly 2000 years, they’ve used fermented fruit juice to marinate the fish until lime was brought to Peru by the Spaniards.
Peru is becoming well known for its cuisine. As attention grown worldwide, so has its prices. So expect to see restaurant with high price points to meet demand and reputation as Peru has most recognized chefs worldwide in the top 20. But, without a doubt you could go many other places cheaper anywhere in Peru to experience Peruvian cuisine. Enjoy!
Miraflores has some of the most expensive food in Peru, but anywhere else you can have amazing food for very little money! Also, the reason why ceviche in Peru is so good, it’s because it originated there and then went throughout South and Central America where different countries adapted it to their own cultures. All great versions, but the original Peruvian ceviche will forever be the best 😜
In answer to your question, yes, the restaurant you went was a bit pricy but, hey Miraflores is a touristic area so it's meant to be pricy. The beauty of Lima is that there is amazing food for every budget, actually not too far from where you were is the Surquillo market where you can find amazing food for a third of what you paid, well....next, maybe time.
I'm Peruvian/American lived in New Jersey for 35 years....now back to my roots here in Lima. Miraflores is a much expensive town. You can eat all of that for way much cheaper price. Just ask freely if any questions. Liked your video. Greetings and lots of luck to you guys.
Yess you paid for the area! Actually the food is way more cheaper outside Miraflores, but is the safest because many people want to be smart over tourist like many countries so be with couple of friends from Peru , is easy safe and cheap to walk around
It is expensive if you go to tourist oriented restaurants, the rest of Lima is not reaaally expensive you can find all the dishes you ate for half the price. Even in Miraflores there are many good inexpensive restaurants.
I suggest you watch "Viaja y Prueba", Luciano Mazzeti is a Peruvian Chef and TH-camr, he travels around Peru (and also the world) showing us great places to eat with low budget. Delicious food in Perú is in places you less expected, I hope you are still in Lima. 😋😋😋
What you call "tiger milk" is the lemon based marinade that "cooks" the fish (it cooks it in the same way vinegar cooks the fish in a sushi). The orange thing is a sweet potato and the yellow thing is indeed corn. Aji means chili pepper. Picarones are made of sweet potatoes. Trevor, maybe you would like to try cau cau (cow stomach) and cuy (guinea pig). Anna, if you liked aji de gallina, you will like papa a la huancaina. You should try to drink Inca Kola and chica morada. Peru and Lima are really cheap. Miraflores, Barranco, Cercado de Lima and San Isidro are upscale, business and/or tourists districts, so the prices there are higher than elsewhere (but they don't speak as much English and there isn't as much tourism elsewhere).
Great comment! Thanks for all the info Guillaume. We'll keep an eye out for those other things and we've seen a few people walking around with Inca Kola. - Anna
The CAUSA LIMEÑA will never be the same as a potato cake from any country, because we have the YELLOW AJI as an ingredient in many foods, which is unique to our country. The AJI DE GALLINA also has YELLOW AJI. In Peru food is not expensive. You are in the most expensive districts of Lima in the country (Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco, etc).
Pisco is not a kind of brandy because it doesn't sleep in oak barrels. Once distilled, is ready to drink. The chileans have a different way to do their distilled and it is because they use the left over of their wine industry and they add some sugar and ferment again. After that, they put that distilled in oak barrels to sleep because it needs to get some taste since basically is fermented sugar with some taste of the left over from the wine industry. You can call this one a bad cognac or brandy.
You guys should had hooked up with a local person, so you could really try small neighborhood mom/dad restaurants. The places that you visited charge way too much.
While that is a great idea it's not very easy to do. We're just 2 random people after all... we can't exactly ask a stranger to take us around 🤣- Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers Just made something like Nas Daily, he usually announces his travel to a city and people help him giving support and information in each city.
hey! So the reason you probably paid so much for those dishes is because you went to a more touristic area (Miraflores) and also because you chose a fairly fancy/pricier resaturant (like Panchita) to eat! Actually being local and having travelled to the US previously I can tell you that Peru isn't exactly an expensive city if you know where to eat and get good deals :) I'd recommend in the future getting advice maybe form a local so you can get delicious food for a more fair price. Belive me I'm form Lima and I barely (if ever) go to fancy restaurants like that to get such traditional/common dishes like anticucho or ceviche :) Hope this helps! Ps: love your content and I'm so happy you liked our food, we're very proud of it :)
You've been in the center of Miraflores, which is an upper class and touristic district. Although eating in a fine restaurant is more expensive since the boom of peruvian food, you can certanly eat very well for much less if you go to other parts of the city, like Barranco, Chorrillos o el Callao. Nice video!
Hey guys! Your video is amazing! I am Peruvian-Canadian :) and yup! Lima is an expensive city :p I live in Toronto and over here living expenses (especially food, clothing and housing) are just slightly higher than in Lima. The only cheap thing in Lima is the commute. :) You should go to Arequipa, it is a very unique city in all Latin America, the food is ACTUALLY incredible and its very cheap. It is the Quebec of Peru :)
That's what it felt like to us as well. Not as expensive as TO but not too far off. We just finished up Chile and now we're headed to Argentina 😃- Anna
You are in one of the most expensive areas in Lima. In Lima you can find very delicious and affordable food ($4-$5 including appetizer, main course and some kind of drink). Try to do a reseach before you go out of Miraflores and try to meet local guys so they can help you. Most peruvians are friendly and helpful but you might be in trouble if you end in a hot area.
We do tons of research which is how we got to these dishes in the first place. We can't just randomly meet locals and expect them to be fine with a big camera and microphone. It's not as simple as you think. Most people don't like the camera - Trevor
Hay muchos lugares con precios más bajos y donde la comida tiene un sabor más delicioso del que probaron. Miraflores es un lugar donde suele ir sólo gente rica así que puede que por eso los precios estuvieron muy elevados. La próxima vayan a otros lugares menos fancy! Pero hay algo en lo que acertaron, nuestra comida es la mejor 😳🙌

@@StAnger561to770 my guy we're Peruvians not mexicans
It is believed that more than 2000 years ago in the Peruvian coast, the Mochica culture prepared a dish based on fresh fish, which was cooked with juice of a local fruit called tumbo(citric); then in the time of the Incas, fish was macerated with chicha, and it was until the arrival of the Spaniards when the ingredients that we know today in ceviche were added: lemon and onion.
According to the historian Javier Pulgar Vidal, the word "seviche" comes from "Siwichi" which is a Quechua terminology that translates as fresh or tender fish. Other versions are also discussed as "cebiche" from the word bait, used to refer to a delicacy or food...I would like to invite you to Chiclayo, where the Moche culture flourished, and Chachapoyas where the Sachapuyos had their Empire, Peru is not only Lima and Cuzco . Very welcome to Peru. :)
Thanks for watching Kelly - Trevor
Thanks for the invitation, but I would rather have a lobotomy than to go back to Peru again.
@@StAnger561to770 No one wants you in that country. Nobody invite you, LOL
@@Winnieberth firstly you have no idea where i am. Secondly i do not need any invitation from anyone. I have more than 1 passport and I can go anywhere in the world that i wish to go. Peru is one place that i will never visit again though, that is for sure.
true, genuine, and authentic ceviche is Peruvian! the yummiest dish in the world
It's soooooo good! 😋
The potato, corn, and many other earth products are originally from Perú. We have more than 3,000 variety of potato, and many of corn, from 4,000 to 2,000 years before Christ. One of them are the sweet potato and the “choclo” (kind of big corn) that goes with the ceviche. The pre-Incas even at that time (BC) ate the fish row only cook with a fruit juice (tumbo) and ají. The “anticuchos “ were introduces in our gastronomy by the slaves from Africa, the conquers (spaniels) ate the meat of the cows, and to the servants they gave the interiors of the animal: heart, liver, kidneys, tripes or stomach, lungs, etc. And they used our spices, herbs, ají, etc and creates many, many delicious dishes.
The picarones are made with sweet potato, pumpkin, anise and flower, fried, you eat it with a sweet honey call “chancaca”.
Perú has more of 490 original dishes, after the fusion of the different cultures arrived. First the native product, then Spaniel influence, French (after their revolution many came to Perú), African slaves, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, German, etc.
Also we have more of 250 different desserts.
I hope I have help you to understand, a little bit, our love for our gastronomy and for the presents our land (pachamama: Mother Earth in Quechua) gives us.
Aahhhh, Miraflores is a tourist site, so many of the restaurants are more expensive. Next time try to eat in the “mercados” (markets?)
palta, and maíz... originaly is from Perú?...haha
Yes, you are right, the corn is from Mexico, there have been many discrepancies about it in the FAO, but they have recently said that the first corn is from that area
@solusst It is. Mexican corn originated in Mexico and Peruvian corn originated in Peru👍
And peruvian corn is waaaaaay bigger than any other country.
@@rosarioarce552 peruvian corn is bigger than mexican
Miraflores is very expensive, you can eat the same food at other places for 75% less.
Wich other place? We would like to knoooow
Cañete is like 2 to 3 hours from lima and it actually alot closer to the ocean so their seafood is amazing. I love peruvian food just wishes that people would try more variety than lomo, ceviche, papa a la huancaena. Its become to popularized here in NY
@@xDiilllToullllliiiDx anywhere else the area wont look as nice but food is so much cheaper and better. The causa they had was 9 US dollars the same plate should cost 8 soles which is around 2.4 dollars

We have no idea how that is sorry
Check him out. He's a French cook/chef who fell in love with Peruvian food. He lives in Peru. He also has a TH-cam channel.
Su página en youtube es "chef timour"
Chef timour is from France but lives in Perú; if you're open to suggestions, he can tell you what places to go as the restaurant you visited didn't seem like the best, there were missing ingredients on couple of dishes.

Ceviche was created in Peru. Pisco is also from Peru.
Miraflores is one of the more expensive places in Lima because of the amount of tourists. Staying and eating in Lima is usually cheap.

Miraflores es un lugar caro. Esas platos se pueden conseguir de entre 3 y 5 veces mas económicos en otros lugares.
Me ha gustado. Pulgar arriba
Yes, for sure you can get those dishes much cheaper and more delicious in other places near Miraflores, like Magdalena, Lince, Surquillo, even Callao etc...but probably will need some guide...if you try everything in Miraflores, will probably not get the real flavor of our Peruvian dishes...
Que colonias recomendarías?
si se trata de ceviche el original, definitivamente el Callao o en mi casa jaja mi mamá prepara un ceviche súper riquísimo (y picante xd) saludos
5 veces o 3 más barato ajajaj por favor de caretilla con ese dinero consigues de oota de anda busca un ceviche de Mero, lenguado o corvina al precio que dices🤣🤣

Hey guys, I’m Peruvian, currently living in Australia and I miss peruvian food like hell. I was watching your video and glad to see you enjoyed our food, regardless the misunderstanding about the ceviche, just to clarify, yes you will find ceviche everywhere and that’s fine, few months ago a ate a ceviche in Indonesia, it was really good, but just for your records, ceviche is originally from Perú and I’m proud that it has spread around the world!!!
We love your food so much! That's why we filmed 2 videos after all. There's just so much to cover 😃- Anna
The prices depend on the restaurant you wanna eat. There a lot of places you can enjoy peruvian food in low costs. For example the "mercados" . Inside them there are little places you can try delicious and cheap food. Ask people around where you can find a "mercado".
guuuys you were supposed to dip the picarones in the honey sauce, thats where they get the flavor from jajajja
They were coated in honey sauce. It was on them - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers PICARONES just have the texture and the flavor of sweet potato and pumpkin without any sugar, you have to super dip it into the syrup,

the richest food is Peruvian 🍴🍴🍴🍽🍽loved🍜🍜
The juice in a ceviche is called Leche de Tigre or Tiger's Milk, but actually there are no tigers in Peru. It has that name because in Peru it's the best cure for hangovers.
Tienen comentarios súper irrespetuosos, debieron investigar un poco más porque Perú es un lugar con excelente comida y a bajos precios; pero como en todos los países hay restaurantes carisimos y ustedes solo muestran eso.
Sm shock at these two blogers... no freaking idea what they are saying... before they travel to ANY country a little research goes a long way... many sad comments from these two.
Pero es que estan en Miraflores
Peruvian are the masters of ceviche, here in Chile we also have it. Good i love peruvian food🤤
Peruvian ceviche is the best for me…. (OPINION). I fell in love with it when my family and I went there. It’s just sooooo good! Peruvian dishes are some of my ULT favorite.
Peru in recent years is as the best country in the world in gastronomy. We understand a lot. But it is also a sacrifice for us to listen to her.
You want to eat something delicious and inexpensive, real food street? Go to the Mercado de Surquillo and you will find wonderful food, you will not regret it. And you will pay a fifth of what you paid!! Thanks for the video!!
Thanks for the tip Viktor. We might just do that when we're back to Lima - Trevor
Lima is typically very cheap, Miraflores is one of the more expensive places. Miraflores is where the more rich people live and where a lot of tourist in Lima choose to live, that's why it is more expensive. Love this video
Very good foods in Lima they love it look like coconut milk very good healthy foods thanks
So good Anne! - Anna
PERUVIAN FOOD IS RICH! THANKS TO GOD BLESSINGS.
So good!
People Peruvian food is the BEST!!!!!
Actually you are right. The área where you was is one of the most expensive área in Lima. Beside of that the plates were really small. Unfortunally some of the best street food are in area a little diferent
That ceviche didn’t look the best, especially for $8. I think you could’ve found a better ceviche out of Miraflores. Peruvian ceviche is the best ❤️🇵🇪
It tasted great and the place was filled with people - Trevor
Wow, the ceviche looked intimidating. I actually think the cow heart looked really good! I’m not sure what I would think of pumpkin onion rings, I’d have a hard time getting past sweet onion rings 😂
The ceviche was definitely the most intimidating you guys. But it was so yummy. All of the food was sooooo good 😋 - Anna
@@ministeriotupalabraesverdad no honey, sweet potatoes and corn
Yes, it does have pumpkin (zapallo). In my city, Chimbote (north of Lima) people use fig for the sweet sauce to put on top of the picarones.
Que bueno que les guste nuestra gastronomía, y el ceviche se come con cuchara con el juguito.... Humm😋😋😋😋
We love your food Gardenia! - Anna
Most of tourists Who does not know Anticuchos is made with cow heart , love it. even When they know afterwards. .Finally is meat too.
Churros originated in Spain, Mexican churros are just a take on it. You should’ve gone to Manolo which is a block and half away from where you had the picarones for the Peruvian take on churros. Everything is much more expensive in that area of Miraflores, it’s mostly a tourist area
And they are tasty in all places. - Anna
I love peruuuu ... The best food
Anticucho is a fusión and adaptation between Perú and Áfricans slaves, history says rich People in Perú Just eat the meat of the cow but throw away the heart, lung, kidneys and the Áfricans slaves cooked it and eat, but peruvians saw it and started to cooked it and start the fusion between both continents
I drooled as soon as it started 🤤🇵🇪♥️
Don't think, only, enjoy it
Ceviche borned in Perú, 5500 years B.C........ The other contries make a bad version of the ceviche.
We travel a lot and any of countries we mentioned that have Ceviche do a great version. It might not be like Peru's version but it's still great. That's like saying other countries can't do pizza - Trevor
I tried Ceviche in Puerto Rico (had carrots, was rather sweet and dry. Horrrendous) and in Mexico (was ok, but to call it ceviche.... too far from that). Peruvian Ceviche is beyond amazing. Yea, I'm Peruvian and tho I am biased, I try to be as neutral as possible.
He is talking nonesense there's no proof on the origin of ceviche

Lima is expensive, and Miraflores is one of the most expensive districts in the city.
Imagino que es porque en alquiler de locales también lo es ?
i'm Peruvian and those places are good... but not enough, there are so many places to visit with special foods like Seco de Res, Pachamanca, Thimpo anyway, great video By the way
Leche De Tigre is the sauce/dressing the ceviche is in and it's not a milk it's a base of lime juice, salt, pepper, aji Amarillo (Peruvian yellow pepper), onion, and cilantro. (There are different variations even within the country of Peru but this is the most common base to work from) The milky look is actually caused from the combination of ingredients with the fish. It is very common to drink leche de tigre separate from the ceviche also (Sometimes when drinking in separate in a small glass they do add a bit of pisco to the mix).
Also like everyone has been mentioning you are in the most touristy area causing it to be more expensive. The best places to eat usually and best prices are the places that typically look like someone's house (hole in the wall type place) and street vendors outside of miraflores.
I’m Peruvian living in USA... we love fish because we know the taste of it.... we eat it fresh, never frozen and most probably the fish you eat for lunch in a restaurant was swimming few hours ago,; they go to the fish market at 4-5am to buy the best fishes. On the other hand, eating fish in USA is totally deferent experience because they have been frozen before so I understand why people don’t like seafood much here.... they don’t know the real taste of freshness.
Thanks for watching Fernando! Any coastal city / town in the USA or Canada (which is where we are from) has fresh fish. It's the same kind of thing. They catch it in the morning and if you want, you can eat it that day. That happens all over the world and not just in Peru. That all said, your seafood in Peru is exceptional. It's some of the best we've tried 👍 - Trevor
Living close to the ocean in USA doesn’t mean that you have access to fresh ( not frozen) fish... according to FDA freezing the fish is part of the process to kill parasites... for sushi/cebiche the requirement is if I remember well is -4 degrees for 7 days minimum.... so, most probably if you didn’t catch your fish you have been eaten frozen fish as “Fresh” .
Even if you go to Costco to buy “fresh” seafood, there is a little sign saying that they have been frozen previously. And the FDA allows to market it as “fresh” under their parameters.
@@fernandolino6493 we live in a small city called Halifax on the east coast of Canada. The fish is fresh. Sure they freeze it too for big box stores. But it's pretty easy to find freshly caught fish here to buy and cook at home or at a restaurant. You can even buy it off the wharf from fisherman - Trevor
Canada is not USA and I don’t know the regulations in your country but it’s a fact that most American don’t eat fresh fish, they don’t even know the taste of real orange juice.( recently squeezed, no added sugars, colors and real pulp) and a lot more vegetables and meat.... the chicken taste different, the Yelp of the eggs have very pale yellow color, etc .... I read a lot comments not only in your channel regarding seafood, and I can tell the consumption is very low comparing with other countries..the quality is very poor in general... flounder is very delicious fish but here even if you pay premium the flavor is disgusting, the texture is not firm as it should be.
By the way, pisco is far from tequila.... pisco is made of grapes(wine) , the oldest distillery in America is in Peru ( hacienda la Caravedo, since 1684) , Pisco is considered a Brandy and one of the finest liquors because of the quality and process to produce it..... I think you need eight bottles of wine to get one bottle of pisco.
I love Lima 😍😍😍 and the cows heart is making me drool rn
I ate with only 7 soles (3,5 CAD$) and it was very good! If you go to public local markets where everything is fresh, you will pay for the dish and not for the place, you should try it next itme
La cómida peruana es la mejor del. Mundo. Es un manjar de los Dioses.
Peruvian food is amazing.

Indeed. Ceviche is absolutely delicious 😁
So good! - Trevor
MIRAFLORES and SAN ISIDRO are the FINANCIAL and BANKING CENTERS of Peru. Everything is expensive there. Next time, you should try to explore other districts of Lima and other parts of Peru. Food prices are 1/5 of what you spent in Miraflores. Cost of living in PERU is very low also. The American Dollar can go a long way in Peru. You can live in Peru for $1,000 dollars per month. I am glad you liked Peruvian food. Many of your fellow countrymen and citizens from around the world fly long distances just to go on a food tour in Lima. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed the food!. Yes, it was the area.
Lima is expensive but the food is yummy! As you know. Don't be afraid of the food...
Tell your friends at home, that the water is fine in the continent down South. Thank you for visiting my native country.
We will! We're very happy to be in your country - Trevor
Ceviche originated in Peru not Mexico or Costa Rica, nowadays many countries throughout the Americas have their own version. The word ceviche comes from the Quechuan word “siwichi” meaning fresh fish. It has been consumed by northern Peruvians for nearly 2000 years, they’ve used fermented fruit juice to marinate the fish until lime was brought to Peru by the Spaniards.
Who said it was from Mexico or Costa Rica? - Anna
Delightful Travellers That’s for you to find out
Peru is becoming well known for its cuisine. As attention grown worldwide, so has its prices. So expect to see restaurant with high price points to meet demand and reputation as Peru has most recognized chefs worldwide in the top 20. But, without a doubt you could go many other places cheaper anywhere in Peru to experience Peruvian cuisine. Enjoy!
Miraflores has some of the most expensive food in Peru, but anywhere else you can have amazing food for very little money! Also, the reason why ceviche in Peru is so good, it’s because it originated there and then went throughout South and Central America where different countries adapted it to their own cultures. All great versions, but the original Peruvian ceviche will forever be the best 😜
In answer to your question, yes, the restaurant you went was a bit pricy but, hey Miraflores is a touristic area so it's meant to be pricy. The beauty of Lima is that there is amazing food for every budget, actually not too far from where you were is the Surquillo market where you can find amazing food for a third of what you paid, well....next, maybe time.
Lima in general is not expensive!!! The area you're in is the most popular for tourists that's why it's more expensive 😊
We found Lima to be pricier than expected everywhere we went. We know Miraflores is the most expensive though - Trevor
I'm Peruvian/American lived in New Jersey for 35 years....now back to my roots here in Lima. Miraflores is a much expensive town. You can eat all of that for way much cheaper price. Just ask freely if any questions. Liked your video. Greetings and lots of luck to you guys.
Thanks for watching Wil. We had a blast in Lima - Anna

Amazing video guys! Looking forward to exploring Peru again this week!
Oh enjoy all the food for us. We miss it... yum. Have a great time! - Anna
Yess you paid for the area! Actually the food is way more cheaper outside Miraflores, but is the safest because many people want to be smart over tourist like many countries so be with couple of friends from Peru , is easy safe and cheap to walk around
You should go to Piura and try ceviche!!
You have no idea how hungry you just made me!!!!!!
It is expensive if you go to tourist oriented restaurants, the rest of Lima is not reaaally expensive you can find all the dishes you ate for half the price. Even in Miraflores there are many good inexpensive restaurants.
Thanks for watching Fabi. In general things cost more than we thought. We went to lots of places not in the video as well. - Anna
Miraflores is expensive, but is the best place to visit, you never get regret about the food for that price (3.5-5 / 5 stars of everything)
Lomo Saltado at Tanta is my favourite, followed by desserts at San Antonio. Returning in Dec 2022 can't wait 😀
The best ceviche in the world is from Peru ❤️❤️❤️
It was soooooo good! - Anna
For miraflores one of expensive district in Lima yes kinda expensive since i live in the cono part where is more cheap the restaurants , markets , etc
I suggest you watch "Viaja y Prueba", Luciano Mazzeti is a Peruvian Chef and TH-camr, he travels around Peru (and also the world) showing us great places to eat with low budget.
Delicious food in Perú is in places you less expected, I hope you are still in Lima. 😋😋😋
We'll be sure to check it out. Thanks for the tip - Trevor
Miraflores is really expensive, that is because is one of the most touristic areas. Downtown, and other districts are much more less.
What you call "tiger milk" is the lemon based marinade that "cooks" the fish (it cooks it in the same way vinegar cooks the fish in a sushi). The orange thing is a sweet potato and the yellow thing is indeed corn. Aji means chili pepper. Picarones are made of sweet potatoes.
Trevor, maybe you would like to try cau cau (cow stomach) and cuy (guinea pig). Anna, if you liked aji de gallina, you will like papa a la huancaina. You should try to drink Inca Kola and chica morada.
Peru and Lima are really cheap. Miraflores, Barranco, Cercado de Lima and San Isidro are upscale, business and/or tourists districts, so the prices there are higher than elsewhere (but they don't speak as much English and there isn't as much tourism elsewhere).
Great comment! Thanks for all the info Guillaume. We'll keep an eye out for those other things and we've seen a few people walking around with Inca Kola. - Anna
You could also go watch the water fountains show at the Parque de la Reserva (when I went to Lima, there was two representations each evening).
@@gjjp237Make sure to watch the next video 😉 - Trevor
The CAUSA LIMEÑA will never be the same as a potato cake from any country, because we have the YELLOW AJI as an ingredient in many foods, which is unique to our country. The AJI DE GALLINA also has YELLOW AJI.
In Peru food is not expensive. You are in the most expensive districts of Lima in the country (Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco, etc).
thank u guys for visiting my country
The picarón is made with a dough made of sweet potato and a native variety of pumpkin: zapallo loche.
It is sad when people tell me they didnt know peru had ceviche because ceviche is originally peruvian 😔😔😔
Wow, Pisco and Tequila
Pisco is not a kind of brandy because it doesn't sleep in oak barrels. Once distilled, is ready to drink. The chileans have a different way to do their distilled and it is because they use the left over of their wine industry and they add some sugar and ferment again. After that, they put that distilled in oak barrels to sleep because it needs to get some taste since basically is fermented sugar with some taste of the left over from the wine industry. You can call this one a bad cognac or brandy.
You guys should had hooked up with a local person, so you could really try small neighborhood mom/dad restaurants. The places that you visited charge way too much.
While that is a great idea it's not very easy to do. We're just 2 random people after all... we can't exactly ask a stranger to take us around 🤣- Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers Just made something like Nas Daily, he usually announces his travel to a city and people help him giving support and information in each city.
hey! So the reason you probably paid so much for those dishes is because you went to a more touristic area (Miraflores) and also because you chose a fairly fancy/pricier resaturant (like Panchita) to eat! Actually being local and having travelled to the US previously I can tell you that Peru isn't exactly an expensive city if you know where to eat and get good deals :) I'd recommend in the future getting advice maybe form a local so you can get delicious food for a more fair price. Belive me I'm form Lima and I barely (if ever) go to fancy restaurants like that to get such traditional/common dishes like anticucho or ceviche :) Hope this helps! Ps: love your content and I'm so happy you liked our food, we're very proud of it :)

The real Anticuchos are in the street 😋😋😋
You've been in the center of Miraflores, which is an upper class and touristic district. Although eating in a fine restaurant is more expensive since the boom of peruvian food, you can certanly eat very well for much less if you go to other parts of the city, like Barranco, Chorrillos o el Callao. Nice video!
Hey guys! Your video is amazing! I am Peruvian-Canadian :) and yup! Lima is an expensive city :p I live in Toronto and over here living expenses (especially food, clothing and housing) are just slightly higher than in Lima. The only cheap thing in Lima is the commute. :) You should go to Arequipa, it is a very unique city in all Latin America, the food is ACTUALLY incredible and its very cheap. It is the Quebec of Peru :)
That's what it felt like to us as well. Not as expensive as TO but not too far off. We just finished up Chile and now we're headed to Argentina 😃- Anna
Peru is the capital of the Food Gormay in world
Love peruvian food
You are in one of the most expensive areas in Lima. In Lima you can find very delicious and affordable food ($4-$5 including appetizer, main course and some kind of drink). Try to do a reseach before you go out of Miraflores and try to meet local guys so they can help you. Most peruvians are friendly and helpful but you might be in trouble if you end in a hot area.
We do tons of research which is how we got to these dishes in the first place. We can't just randomly meet locals and expect them to be fine with a big camera and microphone. It's not as simple as you think. Most people don't like the camera - Trevor
Hay muchos lugares con precios más bajos y donde la comida tiene un sabor más delicioso del que probaron. Miraflores es un lugar donde suele ir sólo gente rica así que puede que por eso los precios estuvieron muy elevados. La próxima vayan a otros lugares menos fancy! Pero hay algo en lo que acertaron, nuestra comida es la mejor 😳🙌
