Ayacucho
Not all of the culinary stars that shine in Ayacucho shine in the center. This pizzeria twinkles in a galaxy all of its own out on Av del Ejercito (although it's planning a second central branch). The food is superb but even that pales into insignificance besides the gushing Italian-style service at this Italian-Peruvian enterprise. Takeout is available.
Get a taxi here, and tell the driver to head to the gas station Grifo Santa Rosa.
