Beschrijving
Discover Cusco's culinary scene on an evening food tour. Taste authentic street food, visit a top restaurant, and enjoy Pisco cocktails while learning about Peru's rich gastronomic heritage.
Begin your culinary adventure with a refreshing Chilcano de Pisco cocktail. Your chef guide will introduce you to local ingredients and share fascinating insights into Peruvian cuisine's global reputation. Start with delightful bites featuring alpaca and cuy (guinea pig), accompanied by stories about their cultural significance.
Next, visit UCHU Peruvian Steakhouse, one of Cusco's top restaurants in the historic center. Indulge in a flavorful tiradito—a dish influenced by Japanese cuisine—and a delicious stuffed potato (papa rellena). Enjoy a perfectly crafted Pisco Sour paired with special marinated olives aged for 15 days, while diving deeper into Peruvian gastronomy.
Then, take to the streets for an authentic experience. Your first stop is a traditional tamale stand, where you'll learn about corn's importance in Peruvian cuisine. Continue to the iconic Intikijllu (Sun Alley) for anticuchos—grilled beef heart skewers that blend Moorish, African, and Peruvian influences—while discussing the rich history of Peruvian street food.
Finish your culinary journey at a picarones stand, where you'll taste these traditional sweet fritters, often called "Peruvian donuts," offering a unique blend of sweet and crispy goodness that has become popular across Peru.
