Top choice in Cuzco


If you must have seafood in Cuzco, make this elegant Nikkei (Japanese-Peruvian) restaurant the place. Don't skip the house pisco sour, tinged with ginger and garnished with a whole chili. Tiraditos (raw fish in a fragrant sauce) simply melt on the tongue. Other hits are the creamy potato causas and crunchy shrimp rolls with avocado and smoked pepper. With attentive service.
