Is this the place?

Yes this is the place.

I ate at La Mar and Piscado Capitals.

If I had 3 days I would eat at all 3 places, they were all great.

Listen if your going to be near La Mar, you usually just go to La Mar. LOL, but this restaurant about a block and half closer to Ave. Ejectivo, with the wall and the flags and the outside tables. The food here is excellent as well. We tried different ceviche's, the girls ordered these crab potstickers and this northern peruvian dish that was out of this world. Price is very much on par with La Mar, ceviche's were around 30, and main courses at mid 30's as well.

Pescado Capital and La Mar should be good choices.
I have not tried them personally but a friend of mine who is a gourmet recommended those, so I believe they are good.

An even better choice in that area is Pescados Capitiales! They also recently started opening as a restaurant/Lounge and added "pork" dishes for us non-fish eaters.

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knew where to get some good decent sized lobster. I found a few places with 250gm ones. But does anyone do anything 1kg+?

Thanks

Any comments regarding this eatery?

Thanks,

Yeah there are a few of them. The original is in Magdalena about four blocks from Salvaverry and one block from J. Prado.

Its Pastelaria San Antonio...another great place to grab a sandwich....unreal pasteries.

Thanks for the correction. With so many Jose Antonio's, Manuel Antonio's, I got the name mixed up. There is another San Antonio on Angamos close to where I stayed.

Its on the corner of Ave. 28 de Julio and Ave. Reducto. I´ve never been disappointed. AND they have menus in English.

Across the street from Tanta there is a Manuel Antonio which serves good food. I like their tamales and sandwiches. Try the butifarra it's great!

Went to lunch with David at one of his local favorites. Go early if you want to avoid waiting for a table. Save room for dessert as the bakery items are superb. The meringues, especially the green mint one with chocolate filling, are worth the trip and available for carryout.

"Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, this is a modern take on Peruvian food created by chef entrepreneur Gaston Acurio. This is a slightly upscale version of a Peruvian café where you can get the classic empanada stuffed with beef or chicken as well as more gourmet variations such as seafood, lechon (pork), asparagus and Roquefort cheese. They do a twist on the traditional ‘lomo saltado’ (stir fried beef topped with French fries) by serving it with melted cheese on a bun. For breakfast the options include egg dishes, tamales, croque monsieur, fruit and crepes. Dinner has more substantial dishes like pastas and tapas.

The atmosphere is casual and modern and the prices midrange, the food of very good quality. Tanta sells food for takeout, as well as Peruvian cookbooks by Acurio. Spanish only magazines and newspapers are provided to be read on location.

Prices:

Breakfast offers egg dishes (12.00-16.00), ‘sanguches’ (sandwiches) (12.00-14.00). In the lunch menu you will find Empanadas (7.00), Paninis (4.00), Quiches (7.00), Focaccias (7.00). Dinner serves Tapas, ‘Montaditos’, Paninis (19.00), Salads (20.00), Pastas 25.00."

We went to LRN last week for Saturday brunch about 2 pm without a reservation so we had to wait in the bar for 45 minutes for a table. We had 1 coffee each and an appetizer in the bar, then 1 wine each with the Seafood from the grill (for two) special for main entree with a shrimp/crab appetizer. We didn't order dessert but had tea. Total was just under 300 soles with tip. Beautiful ocean views and very attentive service but a little pricy. http://www.larosanautica.com/

Amazing Italian Seafood buffet restaurant located at Pumacahua 2520, Lince. The Weekend buffet is 51 soles, soda is 4.5 soles, tea is 4 soles. Food is very delicious, service is great, bathrooms are very clean. I can't understand why this place isn't more busy! They are open from 1 pm to 5 pm. As per David's recommendation, I went there by 12:45 to have the best choice of table & food. Listen to David! He know it all!!!
