Call it a cultural experience. This barely converted auto-repair shop long ago transformed into a bastion of traditional cooking, with long wooden tables and an open kitchen surrounded by scarred iron pots and drying noodles. Daily specials rotate, but the sought-after signature dish is rabbit, which feeds up to three people.

Award-winning Tunki coffee is served with chicharrónes (fried pork belly) on Sunday for a typical Peruvian breakfast.
