Taste of Peru
Peruvians and Chicagoans both head to Taste of Peru in Chicago for authentic chicken tamales, Anticuchos (beef heart kebabs) and Guy's favorite: Lomo Saltado. Along with succulent fried beef, onions and tomatoes, this dish adds french fries, making it what Guy calls "right on-point goodness."
CVI.CHE 105
For the spicy side of Miami, heat seekers Aaron Sanchez and Roger Mooking head to CVI.CHE 105 where they serve Ceviche Anconero, a popular Peruvian dish made with corvina fish, octopus, calamari and a spicy blend of rocoto and chili peppers. For a cool down, diners love the passion fruit mousse.
La Mar by Gaston Acurio
Headed by Peruvian wunderchef Gastón Acurio, this restaurant inside the Mandarin Oriental features haute riffs on Peruvian food, including Peruvian cebiche in a variety of preparations, and dishes like grilled octopus with chimichurri.
