Greetings. Lima is not only Miraflores, San Isidro and Barranco as the vast majority of tourists believe (promoted by travel agencies), they are Americanized areas to make them feel at home, as well as the gastronomy of those places (you will find fusions or foreign foods for the most part), it is very difficult to find our traditional gastronomy there, which is the most famous in recent years. But those places are not the real Lima where we all live. Lima has more than 40 districts to visit. In addition, in those places they assault tourists in prices.
Hello , many thanks for showing food in Lima, the city where I was born. IMHO and after eating hundreds of ceviche in my life, I do recommend to go to an specialized place for eating ceviche. They are called Cevicherias. They are restaurant specialized in fish and seafood. Not only ceviche, but also tiradito, parihuela ( soup ), chicharron de calamar, ceviche mixo ( fish + seafood ), fry fish, etc. The good thing about this food what is caught same day, early in the morning at 5 AM. So fresh and so good. It is one of the secret of the best quality in all the food-related-to-the-ocean in Lima and in general in the coastal areas of Peru. It would be nice to see you guys eating ceviche at Cevicheria and Pollo a La Brasa. Recently this dish won as the best food in the World based on chicken. They are eaten in specialized restaurants called *Pollerias*
Its a beautiful tour Jordan and Soph. You really can learn a lot about a town or city by the places you eat at. There is a lot of activity around these areas. The town you show here looks amazing.
Hi Guys. This was a great food tour of Lima that you shared. The yummy breakfast biscuit with meat and onions and other mixings in there looked tasty. Eating at the food courts with the meals you showed looked tasty we were able to hear you ok the crowd noise wasn't too bad. The drink made from purple corn looked interesting and the food vendors you stopped and sampled along the way was great to see. Overall great food tour of Lima as always thanks for sharing with us look forward to seeing your next travels from Peru. On a recommendation for a world travel destination how about Ireland & Scotland. It'd be wonderful to see how you both would like travels to there.
Glad you were able to hear us ok. It got quite a bit busier as the afternoon went on making it much louder. We do plan on going to that area of the world, so we will put those two on the list!
Oh I love me a good food tour! Peru is high on my remaining bucket list. Mmm empanada! Oh I love Mercados! Enjoyed Mercados in Spain. Oh ceviche I love thee. Wow that Rolena sounds amazing!! Churros seem a great way to end it. What a great food tour. Well done.
Trying new food is easily one of the most important aspects of travel! I'm definitely a big fan of trying street food, its often the best cuisine you can find! I never actually knew what caviche was, now I do, and it looks delicious! That meat bun at the beginning looked delicious too!
it's so refreshing to see you guys roaming Lima with cameras in hand. I visited a few years back and I was with a local family and they kept telling me to hide my cheapish point and shoot camera as it would surely get grabbed (it didnt). I also met a couple who had their bags and passports stolen from the cab they were in at gunpoint on their drive into town from the airport. i know I'm not really dealing with the topic of this video which is great, but it's really good to know you can come to Lima and be relaxed because all the information I felt bombarded with before I went didnt make me feel that way!
Peruvian Food. So amazing. I would love to try that blue corn juice. Puddings and hot chocolates. So many delicious foods. What was each of your favorite foods? What was the worst food experience in Peru?
@@jordanandsoph hello again, one good thing of peru is that food is freshly produced from the soil, there are no GM crops here, no corporations producing food but smaller family run agriculture businesses, we are a poor country but food is still affordable and nobody should be starving or going thru hunger. Actually it was the peruvian potato that saved millions in Europe during famine in 1700s ….the Irish found potatos from a Spanish galeón that wrecked in their coasts….it was full of potato’s hurra !! Actually I think the poor less fortunate in peru eat better than the poorer in Europe or America and I have lived in both places, maybe I should exclude the Mediterranean countries that have a potent agriculture with a lot of variety …like peru we have it all except wheat 🌾 to make bread and pastas that we need to import…maybe meat 🥩 also peru is not self sufficient but that’s about it.
As a peruvian I can see why we have Salsa criolla and consist in onions with lime and we put in a lot of food with chicharron and bread, also in tamales and ceviche, in some other sea food, also in empanadas,inside filled potato, much of our food has some base with onions.
Hi everyone I am from CUSCO Peru if you want to eat like a local I can recommend you the holes in the wall and food on the street I have been working in a food tour company for 7 years every stops are safe and clean. I can organize your cultural and culinary tours and give you the best tips where you can eat and what eat let me know you have a food friend. In Cusco
Congratulation. Your homework had paid off. This a well-done video explaining Peruvian food in a easy way to understand. I am sure that this will just the tip of the iceberg for what you will try in Peru.
@@jordanandsoph Jordan and Sophia, for your first time in Peru you have done well, but there is a ton more to explore. These are two videos of the Peruvian dishes you must try and some of the best restaurants as well. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DVaW3yyOm4k.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gU6MHc2_KGA.html You guys have already tried some of the dishes.
Next time you need to contact with a peruvian guide to taste real peruvian food (and how to eat it too), not things make to accomodate tourists. That dishes are good, but not comparable with real peruvian cousine.
A little advised to you both, spanish videos are not good for your channel, nobody is watching those, try asian, even tho im asian i see a lot of asian food videos doing a lot better, if i were you i would get out of s america.
I am Peruvian why did you not eat , Papa La Huancaina, , , Anticuchos,, Mariscos, Causa . I mean real Peruvian food instead of snobbery you might as well go to Europe. Oh and Peru invented Tamales tamelito oh my never mind. And Ceviche is another Peruvian dish . And Pisco is Peruvian. Go to Callao in Lima cheap Peruvian restaurants none of this snobby bs and eat real Peruvian food not tourist food LOL.
