Restaurante Valle Verde

El Valle


This upmarket Peruvian restaurant in the Hotel Valle Verde serves Inca-inspired favorites such as lomo saltado (stir-fried beef with vegetables and potatoes) and jalea de mariscos (fried seafood platter with yucca and plantains), preceded, of course, by Peruvian ceviche (citrus-cured seafood) and the requisite pisco sour.
