I LOVED (and hated) the FOOD of LIMA, PERU
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 чер 2024
- LIMA, PERU has some of the BEST, Must-Eat FOOD in the World. Ceviche, Pisco Sours, Rotisserie Chicken, Chicha, and Inca Kola are only scratching the surface of the sort of food that you'll find in the Foodie Capital of South America: Lima, Peru.
I loved the food I had there, but it also unfortunately made me sick. For 8 Days. So in this video in addition to giving you all my recommendations for some great spots in town, I'm also going to be letting you know what to look out for... so hopefully you can have a happy and healthy trip.
Food is one of the main reasons you visit Lima... but it isn't the only one. The neighborhood of Barranco will give you a taste of Lima's incredible art scene through its murals and culture, the Historical Center and the Plaza show off Lima's history, and Miraflores is a foodie and shopping lover's haven. There is for sure something here for everyone.

Congratulations! First time I see your videos, and I liked! Overall how good is your pronunciation of Spanish words :)
@@blueunicorn8665 Ah thank you so much!! I do! I'd love to do some videos in Spanish one day when I'm better. I'm always practicing, but I think pronunciation is a strength for me! Grammar tends to be a weakness, but at least I sound pretty good while I butcher my tenses 😂
Greetings.
The Central Restaurant does not prepare traditional Peruvian food, they are fusions and things that the vast majority of Peruvians do not eat.
Travel agencies guide tourists that only the Miraflores, San Isidro and Barranco districts are Lima, but this is false, Lima has more than 40 districts, each with its own charms. What most tourists look for are Americanized areas to feel at home, so for them to come, they would have stayed in their homes and in their countries.
Furthermore, in these districts they are robbed and charged very high prices for everything.
There are very good districts of Lima to visit such as: Jesus María, La Molina, Surco, Chorrillos, Magdalena, San Miguel, Chaclacayo, Lurigancho (Chosica), Cieneguilla, Lince, Lurin, Pachacamac, Pucusana, Punta Hermosa, Punta Negra, San Bartolo , San Borja, Santa María del Mar, among others.
POLLO A LA BRASA is an emblematic Peruvian dish (it has its day in the Peruvian calendar), which many tourists mistakenly believe is a Rostisado Chicken or another type. Our chicken is marinated overnight with more than 10 ingredients in its preparation. It has a unique flavor and it is concentrated in the skin and the inside. Don Belisario, Pollo Pardos, Rokys, Las Canastas, El Mesón, Norkys and thousands of chicken shops that exist throughout Peru, which will prepare our world-renowned "POLLO A LA BRASA".
Most tourists have delicate stomachs, you have to get used to the delicious Peruvian food little by little.
@@AbrahamValdelomar6468Estas muy equivocado, en el restaurante Central con su Chef Virgilio Martinez, solo se preparan platillos con ingredientes de las diferentes zonas geográficas del Perú, el Central no es un restaurante de comida fusión como muchos otros restaurantes peruanos, así que primero averigua antes de comentar
l love peruvian food
Me too! I didn't even realize how much until I visited Lima 🤩
Love your face after trying the pollo a la brasa....that was epic!
😂 That's still me when I think about it, I don't understand how someone can make chicken taste so good, I've been in the dark for so long 😂
@@Get.Lost.Travel the preparation is nuts, its marinated for at least 2 days with lots of local ingredients and an special beer!
I'm sorry you got sick... I've been there... Great choices, Isolina is hands down MY favorite. I go every time I'm in town. LOVE Panchita AND Punto Azul as well. Great video!
Thank you so much!! Can't wait to go back! Appreciate the kind words!
Welcome to Perú, friend 🇵🇪🙌
Thank you so much! I love it. I miss Lima a ton and I genuinely hope to spend another extended period of time there. You have a fantastic country!! 🇵🇪
One of the best videos I have seen about eating in Lima, and I have seen tons of them. Congratulations.
Thank you so much, that's so kind! 🙏🏻🇵🇪😭
I'm limeño, and I remember as a kid listening to all these stories about visitors/travelers getting food poisoned or sick. But that was the late 80s/early 90s and that was a completely different world. Nowadays I find it so unusual to hear people getting sick. In fact, several friends and acquaintances have travelled to Peru and they have eaten so many things I wouldn't, they never got sick. Rule of thumbs (from a local who now live abroad and got food poisoned also in Brooklyn), I'd never eat raw fish from a street food vendor specially when the country is in the middle of an unprecedented heat wave caused by El Niño. The temperature reached in Lima during January/ February 2024 is an anomaly! That increases the chances of quick decomposition, bacteria, etc. Although drinking tap water is a no, for sure; I wouldn't be paranoic if I ate a fruit or veggie that has been washed under a running faucet. I'd be more concerned if that said water has been stored in buckets or previously used to wash other fruits or veggies.
Yeah for sure! No, I had a fantastic time there, the getting sick was just a tiny part of it, the rest was amazing! But yeah, I think it was probably something to do with fruit/vegetables and tap water. Still can't wait to go back, I love Peru!
@@Get.Lost.TravelMaybe the food was too Spicy. I am Peruvian but I wouldn't eat all the dishes you tried in a row. Its too indigestous
I think it might be because your stomach might not be as used to food as condimented as ours is@@Get.Lost.Travel
True that, this year the heat was not normal at all. I watched food go bad like never before. Couldn´t leave anything outside the fridge like we normaly would.
@@pot0tinit was insanely hot! And I live in Chosica! It was hellish. 😂 but so right, I would put food away as quickly as I could. I wouldn’t eat anything that was left out at all.
I sense Inca Kola is best sirves chilled when eating “Chifa” food which is sweet and sour in flavour, nice video man !
Thank you so much! Definitely would pair well together 🙏🏼
You hit the nail on the head there. Inka Kola + Chifa is unbeatable.
Been waiting for this video! You've sold me on Peru.
Yes! It really is so great, I wasn't sure what to expect but I loved it
Ceviche was created by the Caral civilization 5000 BC in Peru.. In the 70s and 80s ceviche wasn't known or eaten in. mexico, chile and the rest of latin american countries. Ceviche became popular through peruvian international restaurants and peruvian inmigrants that moved to different countries.
Love a fun fact, thanks!
En Caral? Nunca había escuchado eso, tienes alguna fuente para consultar?
@@fri0 Busca ''En Caral y Moche ya se servían ceviche'' en google
Es mas, esos primeros ceviches no se hacian con limon
si, no se hacían con limón se hacían con el amargo de la chicha de jora@@fri0
Wow *slow claps*
I'm peruvian and this video makes me feel that you know Lima better than I do. A really honest and well made video, congratulations!
Ah so kind! Thank you so much! I really love it there, I can't wait to go back! 🙏🏻🇵🇪
Esto si es cine 🎥 .Felicitaciones hermano ,espero que la hayas pasado de 10 ,admiro tu honestidad y por supuesto agradezco que el esfuerzo para darle un pequeño tiempo de tu vida a nuestra gastronomia ,exitos ,te lo mereces ,te esperamos pronto 🎉👏
¡Muy amable, gracias! ¡Me lo pasé muy bien, no puedo esperar a volver!
loved your honesty and good vibes for Lima
Thank you so much! I miss it already! 🙏🏻
You had the full experience! And I love how you pronounce correctly all the names!!!! Well done!!!!!!! 🎉
I had a great time! And I'm working on it, I appreciate the kind words!!
Incluso los limeños tenemos miedo de comer comida callejera... Corres el riesgo de que te pase como te pasó a ti... Excelente video y super entretenido!!! Congrats!!!!
Eso tiene sentido, incluso en la ciudad de Nueva York es similar... sabemos que hay muchos lugares de comida callejera que probablemente sea mejor evitar. 😅 ¡¡¡Muchas gracias, realmente aprecio las amables palabras!!!
@@Get.Lost.Travelyou speak Spanish!! 😊
@@Get.Lost.Travelme sorprendio con su perfecto español jajaja
@@Get.Lost.Travel some ppl say here ¨if i die eating atleast ill die happy¨ and it is true for lots of us you know each one struggles with their own stuff but food time is usually a realive. a moment were even if the whole day was awfull if you have something to eat and is GOOD then it gives you strenght to keep going
No exageres. Eso suena a que nadie quiere comer en la calle. Lo correcto es decir que incluso "algunos" limeños temen comer en la calle, pero la grandísima mayoría no.
Love this video! Thank you for such kind words for Lima, glad that you enjoyed it and so sorry for the little inconvenience. 😊 congrats and many thanks!! 👍🏽👏🏼
Thank you so much!! I really did love it, I can't wait to go back!! 🙏🏻
lol the old Inca Kola commercial 😂 my friend is from Peru and always is tryign to get me to go
You should, if you can! I loved it, and yes there is plenty of Inca Kola 😂
Amo tus descripciones de los platos, como narras, las recomendaciones y el segmento de tener cuidado de que cosas comer. Que buen video!!
¡Muy amable, muchas gracias! Amo Perú, ¡me alegra que esto haya sido útil!
Peruvian food 🇵🇪❤😍😍😍😍

Ah wow!! You're going to absolutely love it, Lima is incredible. I hope to visit Indonesia one day as well!! Have a great trip!!! 🙏🏻🇵🇪
I’m from Venezuela but Lima is definitely my home and I love my city!
It's really such a great city! I miss it! 🇵🇪
Excellent video !!! 👍
Thanks a ton!! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch! 🙏🏻🎉
Gracias por los comentarios y las recomendaciones. Me alegra que le haya gustado mi país. Espero que vuelva pronto y se quede más tiempo jaja
¡Gracias por ver! ❤️ Definitivamente regresaré, realmente me encanta estar allí 😭🇵🇪
Glad you enjoyed my city. Is aways refreshing to see it from the eyes of an outsider, makes one remember all that we take for granted.
Ah, I love this comment. I could easily see myself living there, it's so beautiful and really just amazing energy and food. You have a fantastic city for sure!!
Omg peruvian food is so good! I really loved your video! It gives so many references of places to grab a pretty yummie meal!
Ah thank you so much!! That's so kind! Yeah the food is insane, I miss it so much already and can't wait to go back!!
The Peruvian Gastronomy is really delicious and Lima City is Bests restaurants are in Lima ; where ever place you go you will enjoy the Food . There are many Historical places to visit , I am Glad to know that you Visit Peru 🇵🇪
It is soooo delicious!! I loved it, I'll be back for sure!!! 🙏🏻
Gracias por visitar Perú siempre seras muy bien recibido por nosotros siempre
Espero que visites mi hermosa Tierra AREQUIPA considerada capital gastronómica del Perú con su famoso Rocoto relleno con pastel de papa
Adobo
Soltero de queso
Y con el queso helado galardonado como uno de los postres del planets
Viva Perú 🇵🇪😉
Posdata es Pollo a la Brasa (no asado de pollo)😊
Su preparacion basada en brasas de fuego, amado por todos los Peruanos
¡¡Vaya, todo suena increíble!! Me has convencido, la próxima vez intentaré llegar a Arequipa seguro. Gracias por mirar!
Excellent video. Lima is a charming city, specially in summer times
Ah thank you so much!! I really loved it, I can't wait to go back 😊
Amazing video, keep it up!! Much support from Peru 🇵🇪
So kind, thank you so much!!! I can't wait to go back!! 🙏🏻🇵🇪
nice video and about the food, many foreigners get food poisoning since their stomachs are not used to Peruvian condiments, then they adapt and it no longer affects them at all
Thank you!! I appreciate you watching!! 🙏🏻 Yeah I think that's absolutely true, probably applies to a lot of places, it takes some adapting to get used to different bacteria, etc. but in time you gain an immunity. I can't wait to go back!
Condiments don't cause food poisoning. It's caused by PATHOGENS, for example harmful bacteria.
Brother, this is one of the best videos I've seen visitors doing from my city. Glad you had such stay, about the good poisoning, we locals tend to joke that we're inmune to batería, but happens to the all of us once in a while 😂😂
Great tips!
Thank you so much, that's so kind!! 😭 I really loved it, I miss it all the time! And yeah, food poisoning is honestly just a part of traveling. I come to expect it from time to time no matter where I'm going 😂🙏🏻🇵🇪
Very nice video Peru have everything 🗽🇵🇪🙏🏼
Thank you! It definitely does, I miss it!
He disfrutado verte comer todos esos platos peruanos que muy bien describes y los restaurantes ya lo apunte para visitarlos, gracias por la recomendación
¡Estoy tan feliz! ¡Gracias por ver! 🙏🏻
what a beautiful video 🥺 i’m very happy that you liked lima so much, we hope you come back someday!
Ah thank you so much!! I really did love it, and I miss it already! I will be back for sure 🙏🏻
Wow, amazing
🙏🏻🇵🇪
Loved your video. So respectful and well done. Through the years, I have seen many videos about foreigners coming to Peru and tasting our food wihtout taking the time to get to know its history or appreciate it just because our flavors are not common in other cultures. This is, by far, the best video I've ever seen about Peruvian food. Keep up the good work! Would love to see more videos about other countries or cities.
Ah this is so kind!! I really appreciate that, and I loved my time in Peru. Already excited to go back! I have many many more countries and cities on the channel, hopefully you enjoy those as well!
Love it 👍
Thanks so much!! 🙏🏻
Welcome 😊😊😊😊 and thanks for this video ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!! 🙏🏻
Really good video, leaving some tips for another tourists and all, 10/10
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!! 🙏🏻
Congrats! Lima is a great city! Thanks for show it to the world! ❤🇵🇪
Thank you, I really love it!! I can't wait to go back! 🇵🇪
Hi! Im someone from Perú here, actually lived in barranco like 4 years ago, so; it is commonly known that to people outside of peruvians, our food can be.. a little too seasoned (i think that would be the word in english for "condimentado"), so some stomachs might take it badly, im sorry you had to go trough that but im also very happy you got to experience the amazing food we have. Heads up tho, we always are of the opinion that you really have to know what you get into when buying food on the streets, some may use water from the sink (not sanitized water) for their drinks, some may use their hands without cleaning, taking the dirty coins and other stuff in their hands to then prepair food with them, as i said, you gotta be careful and knowledgeable about it. All and all im happy to see you experienced this
Oh yeah for sure! I loved it there, the food illness was such a tiny part of my experience. I'm already excited to go back!
I don't know why I'm watching this, when I'm Peruvian born and raised lol
But I'm genuinely glad you enjoyed your trip! (And I'm sorry to hear about the food poisoning)
😂 Well however you got here, I'm glad you did!! Thanks for watching, and I really did enjoy my trip, I can't wait to go back! Missing Peru for sure 🙏🏻🇵🇪
Gracias por tus palabras hacia Lima, siempre serás bienvenido a mi país
¡Muchas gracias! ¡No puedo esperar a regresar!
Genuine, funny and honest video, like it😂😊
Thank you so much!!
gorgeous!!
🙏🏻🤩🇵🇪
Un video entretenido, da una buen información de lo que no se debe hacer, excelente video
¡Muchas gracias! ¡Me alegro que haya sido útil!
Very good experience. I have hungry.
Thank you so much!! Me too! 😂🙏🏻
Great video 🎉
Thank you so much and thanks for watching!!
keep it up. this is a great channel I know you will go far.
So kind! Thank you so much! I will definitely try! 🙏🏻
Your trip in Lima is amazing ❤
I had a great time!! I can't wait to go back!
So glad your video started with one of my top 5 favorite dishes (arroz tapado 😍)! One thing to note is that Isolina does require some wait time at peak hours (there is a second one in Surco though; not sure if it's the same deal as I've yet to eat there). Thanks for featuring my town! And yes, pollo a la brasa will ALWAYS be the center of heated, never ending discussions.
I loved everything I had!!! For sure, I think I got lucky. I went to Isolina twice, but since I was living there it was easy to go at "off" hours. I'm sure at its peak there is definitely a solid wait. Thanks a ton for watching! 🙏🏻
Excelente video 👍😁
Thank you so much for watching!!
La comida Peruana de todas sus regiones es súper deliciosa, la mejor del mundo para mí 🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪👏👏👏😊
Estoy de acuerdo, ¡me encantó!
Narracion fantastica! Gracias!
Ah, Muchas Gracias!! y Gracias por mirar!! 🙏🏻
great to feel your vibes, and you are right with the recomendantions, I hope you can return soon, greetings from Lima!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words, I hope to return soon, I loved it!! 🇵🇪
Now you are a Peruvian, congrats man!! our food it's just extremely delicious , nice video!
I hope it doesn't take long for you to return to Lima :)
Ah so kind!! It is truly delicious, I will be back for sure!
I love Peru the food its amazinggggg
Me too! I miss it already! 😭❤️
Welcome to Peru!! always
Thank you!! I loved it, I can't wait to go back!
Hello, I am Peruvian and the dissemination you make of our food and our attractions makes me feel very happy. Remember that there are many more recognized dishes in places in the interior of the country. For example, the food of the Mountain range and the jungle which is a whole world to discover, often for ourselves. A big hug and I hope you visit us again very soon, you will always be welcome. 🇵🇪♥💪🏻
Awe this is so nice, thank you so much! Yes, there is so much more of Peru for me to explore, it makes me very excited to go back!! 🙏🏻🇵🇪
all loking good , so tasty
It really was! Thank you for watching!!
Buen video hermano
¡Muchas Gracias! 🙏🏻
Great video!
Thank you so much for watching!!
Been to central twice…. I can’t agree it to be the best in the world, but it was good. Now if you ask anyone what they have eaten… they probably can’t tell you. Iconic dishes like a lomo Santado or ceviche at Isolina is one of the best and you will remember what you ate. Here’s a second location at Surco.
Ah so cool! I've never spoken to anyone who has actually eaten as Central, it sort of just feels like a legend. 😂 But I definitely really loved Isolina, exciting there's a second!
No es que algo haya estado contaminado o puede que si en algun ambulante pero lo que pasa es que la comida Peruana lo que lo hace sobroso es sus condimentos y si tu estomago no esta acostumbrado suele caerte mal, yo viví en el extranjero muchos años y cuando volvía a mi Perú siempre la primera semana me enfermaba del estomago incluso sin comer fuera de casa, ademas que te quieres comer el mundo cuando estás en Perú porque todo es muy sabroso
¡Eso es cierto! A mí también me pasó en otros países en la primera o segunda semana. ¡Todavía me encantó mi visita!
La comida Peruana en todas sus regiones es súper deliciosa, la mejor del mundo para mí..🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪👏👏
thanks for visiting Peru
I had a great time!
Hello friend! Glad you loved Perú! Im so happy that every place that you mention in the video is actually a one worth visiting! Peruvian here and I agree to all these recomendations! WE ALL LOVE POLLO A LA BRASA WITH INKA COLA HAHA!
Ah thank you so much!! I really did love it, I can't wait to go back! Yesss craving pollo a la brasa and Inca Kola right now 😭
Love it. But my grandfather was one of the first Perunos in the USA back in the 40’s. In Utah. Lomo has changed. I appreciate your channel.
Thank you so much! That's really interesting about your grandfather! It's a fantastic country 🙏🏻
I love my city ❤️❤️❤️
I love your city too! I can't wait to go back!
Sound like very honest opinion 👍, I was born in Barranco✌️
They are!🤩 I love Barranco so much, I miss it!
Que bien que le gustó tanto Barranco...es magico...cuando pasas tiempo alli ya no te quieres ir...❤
Tienes razón, ¡lo extraño! Podría vivir allí fácilmente, es genial.
A friend of mine took me to a place in peru that served food with TABASCO. wtf?!? I'm glad you went to place that served the right kind or ceviche. Good video man.
Wow that's wild 😂 Thank you so much! Yeah Punto Azul is the real deal
When it comes to chicha, chicha morada, the one made of purple corn is not fermented, we drink that since we are babies. Chica de jora in all its varieties, that one is fermented 😊
Yes, that's right! ⭐️
Josh - What is your favorite city to visit and favorite foodie place so far? We are going to try Lima next year. Buenos Aires was amazing last year. Rome is always amazing
Such a fun question! I mean Lima is truly up there for food cities, but aside from Lima (and ignoring Italy as a whole) my favorites for food are probably Istanbul (video coming Monday, actually!), New Orleans, Chiang Mai, Antigua (Guatemala), and Georgian food in Tbilisi is amazing also! Favorite cities to visit are Reykjavik, Tokyo, Porto, Cape Town, and Florence!
Plenty of places I haven't gone yet, but I am planning on spending a month in Buenos Aires in 2025, so I'm excited to experience that!
@@Get.Lost.Travel been to all of those except Cape Town but it’s on the list.
BA will not disappoint. Amazing and getting better now with their new president.
How did Peru rank on your list of fave countries to visit?
Amazing edition,
We're so sorry for you because you got sick. I could justify that by saying that for you to eat peruvian street food you must have a ver strong stomach XD to say the least
Came here with the title, hope to see more of your amazing videos.
Take care!
Thank you so much for watching!! Yes, it's taking a risk to eat Street food just about anywhere, so I knew it was possible. I appreciate you! I can't wait to go back!
Street food, watch out ! That’s all I can say. I am Peruvian but Miami has been my home since 1992. Excellent video.
Right? It was part of a whole professional four tour so I was too trusting 😂 Love Peru, love Miami! Thank you so much! 🙏🏻
truly we love to eat here hehe, hard to have a single dish among all!!
That's part of what I love so much about it! Can't wait to go back!
I love
❤️
excellent recommendations! Those are the best restaurants without a doubt, you missed eating at "La Lucha", anticuchos at "La Grimanesa", some soup at "7 sopas", etc. But everything excellent!! Congratulations on the video! very good!
Thank you so much!! Adding those rec's to the list for next time! I appreciate you!! 🙏🏻🇵🇪
Gracias por venir a mi Perú..te haz perdido la comida del norte y sur del Perú..cada lugar tuene diferentes especialidades en sus comidas..saludos❤🇵🇪🇵🇪
¡Eso es cierto! ¡Pero esto fue sólo un video sobre Lima! Pero la próxima vez que visite otras regiones también, ¡lo espero con ansias!
Learned some new things about Peru today
Five weeks is a pretty decent amount of time to spend travelling somewhere, but I feel at home in some places after only a couple of days.
It's too bad about the food poisoning because of something like tap water.
This episode reminded me of when my elementary school teacher sent me a postcard from Peru telling me that she was adopting a kid there. 😆 Not sure if that was just a 90s thing or if teachers still send their students postcards? Still not sure how she got my address...
🤣 Oh my God that's hilarious, and yet I vaguely have some sort of similar memory? Like I definitely feel like I got some postcard at some point from an elementary teacher. Why was she letting you know she was adopting I have so many questions 🤣
@@Get.Lost.Travel I think she was on leave of absence and wanted to let her students know what happened. Maybe I still have that postcard.
"I loved your video, it was super well done and detailed! I'm Peruvian and I have an anecdote - I live in the United States but on one of my first trips here in the US, I got sick from something I ate that must have been spoiled. I was sick for 7 or 8 days and it was weird because I only ate restaurant food and fresh things from the supermarket, never from the street. I thought it was strange because they take care of those details here, but the doctor told me that can happen anywhere, no matter how much attention is paid to details. He said each country has its own bacteria, and when we travel, we exchange bacteria, and if we live in a country for a long time, we become immune to them. But sometimes we can get intoxicated or contract a new bacteria, more so in some countries than others, like India. Unfortunately, the tap water in Lima isn't safe to drink since the cholera virus, but as a child and teenager, I drank tap water and it was the most delicious water I've ever tasted, and I miss it! I've never gotten sick again in the United States. Thanks for your beautiful video and for loving my beloved and missed homeland.
Yes, that's the exact way I look at it! There are people in the comments with all sorts of opinions about it, but the truth is really just that different places have different types of bacteria. It isn't a bad thing, it just takes getting used to over time, and getting sick from traveling is all a part of the experience. I really appreciate the kind words! Thank you for taking the time to watch!! 🙏🏻🇵🇪
@@Get.Lost.Travel "That's right, there's nothing wrong with what you said; these things happen during travels, and you just shared where it happened and your recommendations for taking precautions. The issue is that some people take things personally and are very sensitive, so instead of focusing on how beautifully you talk about Peruvian food and Lima, they focused solely on that. But I know that most people understood it. In general, the people of Peru are very kind and good-hearted, and your videos are excellent. This video is outstanding, and you went to some great places with all kinds of food-a very comprehensive video. I always recommend drinking Kombucha whenever we travel anywhere, if we can find it, like here in the USA and also in Peru where they sell it. It has good bacteria that can combat the bad ones we ingest from anything that's spoiled. Kombucha relieves any discomfort; at first, it might not seem like it, but that's because it's expelling the bacteria, and then you feel perfectly fine. And drinking only Seven Up for 3 days without any food, maybe just a toast, and preferably only the soda, in case you can't find Kombucha, as it has electrolytes that hydrate you and cleanse your stomach, getting rid of the bacteria. This is how my great-uncle, who was a doctor, cured almost all cases of stomach bacteria, and it's excellent, just like Kombucha, which also hydrates you besides killing the bacteria. Congratulations, keep it up! I've subscribed and will keep watching more of your videos. And don't forget to try Chifa, the Peruvian-Chinese fusion cuisine, which is delicious, as well as the sushi in Peru, which is incredible. I recommend some dessert places: 'La Confitería' in San Isidro, 'Tentaciones Gourmet' in Miraflores, 'Santa Rosita' in Magdalena, which is a very old place with very antique sweets, and 'María Te' in Surco! Hopefully, you'll come back and try Peruvian desserts, Chifa, and Peruvian sushi. It would make an excellent video! Blessings to you, and I congratulate you and wish you all the best."
Limeño here! New to the channel, love the vid!
1. Excellent location to live while in Lima: Barranco. So many people prefer Miraflores or San Isidro due to the luxuries and security (lots of police around) but if you want to experience a mixture of safety and adventure at the same time, Barranco will always be the best choice.
2. Amazing choices for Pollo a la Brasa. Both Don Belisario and Pardo's are considered the best places to eat Pollo a la Brasa.
3. About food safety... yeah, it's one of the main reasons why not all the restaurants are full at dinner time. Of course street food is delicious but you need to have expierience on where to eat and where not to. Thankfully, Miraflores offers street food with all the cautios of the not using bad ingredients, if somehow you come back, try eating Miraflores' street food.
4. Five weeks are enough for me to call you "causa" LOL (which means you are a friend around every Limeño). Hope my home offered you the best experience and hope to see you again soon!
Ah thank you so much!!
I'll be back for sure! I miss it already, and could see myself spending a lot more time there! Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching!!
I love peruvian food 😋
Sammmeeee 😍
Arroz tapado, means covered rice.
Please come back and try carapulcra con sopa seca, tallarin saltado, parihuela, chaufa amazónico, patasca and chupe de camarones, im sure you will like at least one of those dishes 😄
I will! Definitely am planning a return trip, so I'm glad to have some things left on the list to try! Thank you!
Thanks for loving our food. You also make outstanding videos. You didn't get sick because of the tap water, I assure you. You probably were sold some old seafood with salmonella-like bacteria in it. This happens when you buy from food vendors in the streets. Not something unusual, I'm afraid. People also get sick most of the time after eating some type of meat sandwich from a moving vendor. We call it "pan con muerte lenta" or slow death sandwich. Keep up the good work and try Peruvian's northern and oriental food next time!
Ah so kind, thank you for watching!! Yeah I'm sure it was something I ate on the street. So interesting about the nickname for the sandwich! 😂 I appreciate you, I will be back for sure and will be trying food from the other regions!
Lovely comments about the city where I live. Thanks
Thanks so much for watching!!
as a peruvian i should say: wow you actually did your homework :p
😂 I try! I love Peru! 🙏🏻
Great video, I loved it! You're totally right about the Churros😅Just one little thing, the correct name of the dish is not Arroz Con Tapado, it is Arroz Tapado, which means something like "Covered rice"...which actually doesn't make any sense because rice is not covered in this dish, rice is actually covering the delicious ground beef it has inside...but anyways...Also Aji de Gallina is a name that doesn´t make any sense...but that's another story....I guess we are not so good at naming dishes😬Btw congrats on your pronunciation, you're really good! Abrazos from Lima!
Thanks!! Yes many people have corrected my "arroz con tapado" mistake. On UA-cam people tend to let you know... over and over 😂 I appreciate your grace though! Thanks for watching, I loved Lima and can't wait to return!

Hello if You return to Lima again try to go to Surquillo and visit the interesting culinary proposals.
Also for Pollo a la Brasa visit Primos and Dallas.😊
Ah amazing, thank you for the recs!!! I'll check them out next time for sure!! 🙏🏻
Hola mi estimado amigo 😊 te recomiendo cuando regreses a Perú❤ comas en lugares seguros como restaurantes y si comes de carretilla es decir de la calle te fijes si pertenecen a la municipalidad de Lima esos puestos de comida si te darán la confianza de no enfermarte 🤭 y por favor no beber el agua de caño (grifo) directamente se debe hervir en la cocina antes de beberla ... Te esperamos pronto 🤗🇵🇪🥰🥳
¡Oh, lo sé! Creo que a veces es difícil evitar el agua cuando se trata de frutas y verduras. Fue una pequeña parte del viaje, ¡me encantó mi estancia en Perú!
@@Get.Lost.Travel 👍😉
Hey very nice vid about Lima! I think you missed the best pollo a la brasa there is! Next time try Primos, it is much better than Pardos and Don Belisario!
I wrote it down!! Will definitely try on my next visit, thanks so much for the rec!! 🙏🏻
Thank you for posting, just a little note, chicha morada its not fermented, its just purple corn boiled with spices and fruits .
Yes! No I know, with how much of it I drank if Morada was fermented I would have *noticed* 😂 Kids drink it, etc.!
Just to raise awareness, Peruvian cuisine is exquisite! But you cannot fully enjoy everything at once. If you try sea food, Dont go for eggs with milk or dairy products. The combination of the 3 can raise an stomach ache. Specially eaten on the mountains as Cuzco. Digestion is faster on the coast however the enzymes of these 3 typically bring anyone to experience food poisoning. So if you eat any 2 of these 3. You are blocked to avoid the other. (Lime + Fish -> Milk/yogurt or chesee l Eggs) as an example. I live on the mountains so this is a common thing on the mountains but in any place that is hot enough you will be able to digest it fast. So you dont get sick to abruptly.
Excelent.... wonderfull❤
You're so kind, thank you so much for watching!
PERUVIAN FOOD THE BEST IN THE WORLD
Agreed!!!
Peruvian here. Cant talk about everyone, but when I eat cebiche I never eat everything together. Sweet potato at least for me is to dont get bored of the same flavour. Same as how you can add onions mix or huancaina sauce to some other dishes.
Yeah, I'm sure everyone does it their own way! I was taught by some Peruvians to do it this way, but of course everyone is different 👍🏻
Panchita restaurant have a delicious "Emoliente", the best I tried in my life
Ah ok good to know! I'll be back, so I'll mark it down for next time 🙏🏻
"Arroz tapado" is the correct name.
