Is food in Peru as good as people say? // Peru Travel Vlog

[@nicoleandmico]

Which of these foods would you want to try FIRST on your trip to Peru!?

[@seymorefact4333]

🇺🇸 I fry Guinea pig in Kansas every week! I farm my Guinea pigs. Felt weird the first time, but the third time ... is great. I didn't like sushi the first few times. Also farm rabbits, chickens! 🇺🇸

El verdadero lomo saltado y otros más, el que ustedes comieron lamentablemente no es el lomo saltado que los peruanos estamos acostumbrados, no sé en qué restaurantes probaron esos platos, pero les aconsejo que visiten los huariques, precio cómodo y verdadera comida casera peruana.

Thanks for visiting us! 😃 For the next travel in Peru you should visit the north cost (north cost of Peru is the origin of Ceviche dish) in sides like Chan Chan (an old city similar to Atlantida because everything there are monuments of the sea 🌊), Lord of Sipan (Richest tomb in America), Kuelap (an old city similar to Machu Picchu), Gocta waterfall, the Amazon Rainforest and Amazon River, and tropical beaches as Máncora, Cabo Blanco (Ernest Hemingway called this beach "Fishing Land" and this place was inspired to write his novel "The Old Man and the Sea"), Punta Sal and Sechura desert 🏜 where there are a lot Flamencos, the Lake Titicaca and the most beautiful train in the Andes called Belmont that connect Cusco - Puno - Arequipa, Caral (oldest city in America), Callao (In islands of Callao 🏝 there are penguins 🐧), Huayco (important side where rescate birds like Condors and Harpy Eagles 🦅) and UNMSM in Lima (oldest University in America).

Love the favorites list with the lama🦙 scale! Sometimes getting your head around cuisine that isn't traditional to your home can be hard, but great job stepping out of your comfort zone to try those dishes. I really like seeing the initial reaction as you guys try something but also the information about the dish. It would be a longer video but a compilation of the favorite, most unforgettable, or top dishes in this format from each area you visited would be rather fantastic.

[@nicoleandmico]

Thank you so much for the comment and for the suggestion! I think you are right - a video sharing our favourite food from each country would be pretty cool! We already have some good idea about what we would choose from each place!

[@adolfobriceno1635]

The lama 🦙scale was awesome. Most people that travel to Peru stay for only 4 days or a week, but it seems that you have stayed at least 4 weeks to make such an informative and fun video of Peruvian cuisine. You are right, there are gastronomical tours. People from Santiago, Chile and Bogota, Colombia fly to Lima for gastronomic tours. I hope that in your next trip to Peru you can come to eat at Central and Maido, some of the best restaurants in the world. You might also want to explore regional cuisines from the north coast of Peru, Arequipa or food from the Amazon region.

Me parecen los youtubers más sinceros sobre comida peruana, los felicito, no a todos les gusta el ceviche como a mi que soy peruano, pero es verdad la comida peruana es muy variada y encuentras platos diferentes y nuevos sabores en cada destino, por ejemplo yo vivo en la selva peruana (Iquitos) y aquí amamos y veneramos platos poco difundidos como la patarascha, el motelo (tortuga) al kión, el picadillo de paiche, picadillo de carne del monte (mamíferos silvestres), el inchicapi, la zarapatera de tortuga, el caldo de carachama, el Chapo, el mazato, y una cantidad de etcéteras, sin.mencionar el tacacho con cecina que se conoce en todo Perú, pero de verdad ni nosotros como peruanos terminamos de comer y conocer toda la variedad de comida que tenemos, para eso tenemos que viajar mucho, pero ustedes comieron lo más conocido y tradicional, cuyo sabor varía en cada lugar, depende el cocinero y de los ingredientes, me alegra que les haya gustado, espero vuelvan a seguir comiendo el Perú, y lo que en realidad hace exquisita nuestra comida es el amor que le pone la gente al cocinar, así que en Perú siempre comerán delicioso porque el peruano comparte su cultura con todo el amor del mundo, saludos.

Ah yes, criolla! We remember seeing that as as category of food in the restaurant where we got the cuy. A woman at a nearby table ordered it and there was SO much food!

[@juanjoserivasgarcia2336]

You know guys, if you count the total of main dishes at Perú, the total of soups and the total of desserts you wild have a total of around 3500 traditional dishes. This means if you eat just one peruvian recipe at day, you will take around 10 years to try them all. Thats why I think a 10 top is kind unfair here. Just to mention 4 of them I wished you tried other recipes as the PARIHUELA, the COSTILLAR DORADO AREQUIPEÑO, the TACU TACU,and maybe one of the older ones the PACHAMANCA (this one is traditionally cooked under the floor with heated rocks).

Sorry guys but probably you got the wrong place for Anticuchos. It's not supposed to be "chewy" it may be roasted and crunchy. Some restaurants serve big pieces of the heart and that's the problem. Actually it's a street food and there is where the experience is totally different than try it in a restaurant. For me is a 4.5 for sure and not really expensive

[@frankkurt2157]

You should know that Peruvian gastronomy has Inca, Spanish, African, Japanese, Chinese, Italian and French influences. The exquisiteness of Peruvian food and what makes it the winner of the best gastronomic destination are its fusions and the quality of its natural ingredients. Advice go to good restaurants, if you want to try good food, travel with money.

The food was so delicious and we loved the variety. Yes we went to many restaurants as well as the street food. While good food can be costly, the best food should fit anyone's budget so long as it's prepared with love! Thanks for watching!

Short answer yes. Its freaking amazing. I spent 1 year total in peru and eaten all over the country and many pueblitos in the sierras. The food is astounding, venture to the places locals go. Go north beaches like Piura, go to the jungle like Iquitos, go to the sierras like Churin or Urubamba, even go to Pozuzo for German food!. Its really insane and im a Portland native and apparently the food here is really good? But aint nada compared to some ceviche over a sunset in Barranco!!!

the ceviche looked so dry, the lomo chunks are way to big and the fries too, also, all the places looks like tourist traps and it reflects on the images you showed, also, the cuy is a dish to try on the Andes, Cusco of you go to Machu Picchu, but in Lima, you have really have to know where to get and it's usually little holes in the wall that only locals of the neighborhood knows about, I never eat cuy in Lima because I don't like it there, but when in Cusco, Arequipa, Cajamarca, it's so good, the difference is really big

Let me correct you guys Cuy or guinea pig is not a normal dish in peruvian cuisine Its a typical dish from Andes and it was brought to Lima in some restaurants because there is strong inmigration of people from Andes in LIma but definetely its not a dish in peruvians table I never tried, my family neither, my friends neither, we are not planning to try it And its a lie or some local people lied to you because they probably love that dish or they are from Andes and try to promote internationally that dish but again, its not a national dish, Huge numbers of peruvians dislike that dish and easy to prove what i said is you can walk any street in LIma and it wont easy to find a restaurant offering cuy or guinea pig but sure, there are restaurants who offer cuy spreaded in parts of Lima but there are very few Please, do not say its a national dish or its normal dish in peruvians because is not at all. Im sorry but i should make the correction. Cheers

[@nicoleandmico]

Hey there, thanks for sharing your experience with us. It sounds like your comment is referring to how common cuy is in Lima, specifically. We noticed that it was definitely less popular in Lima and was really only sold at touristy restaurants in Lima, however in the Andes region of Peru we found it to be quite easy to find. Our friends who grew up in the small communities near Cusco told us many stories about how commonly they ate cuy both as children and now, in adulthood. They even shared with us their stories of their families having small cuy farms in their homes so they could raise their own cuy to eat. One of the things we loved about Peruvian cuisine is how different the dishes can be depending on where you are in Peru, and it sounds like you have had this experience as well.

[@gustavousnay165]

@@nicoleandmico Excactly is dish original from the Andes, If you go to the Jungle, the Amazons, you won't find cuy or rarely some but in Jungle provinces there is other food, same as in the Coast where mainly dishes are seafood and comida "criolla". In other word cuy is a dish from Andes, not a national dish Ok, to be a bit clear, when peruvian food got more in the international attention, the dishes most common to show to the world was ceviche , lomo saltado and other popular dishes, The cuy never were considerated , non even mentioned, So most people from Andes tried to introduce the cuy as an alternative but also wrongly saying is a popular dish when its not. its very common in their provinces. Why im very concern to explian this point? because most peruvians are pet lovers and most of us dont tolerate this dish, even we can respet the Andes customes but its a dish from Andes , not a peruvian national dish, thats not correct and it hurts really hurts with people who love pets.

@@nicoleandmico About the Lomo Saltado, yeah rate very low and its understandable.
