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.
Mo-Chica Contemporary Peruvian Restaurant
In search of the Peruvian shredded chicken and walnut dish, aji de gallina, Giada called Mo-Chica's one of the "spiciest, nuttiest comforts" she's ever had. For more of Chef Ricardo Zarate's comfort foods, try the Peruvian beignets called Picarones made with sweet potatoes and kabocha squash.
Chimu
With some advice from Aarón Sánchez, Bobby heads to Chimu for scrumptious Peruvian food. Chimu's ceviche remains a must-try for newcomers, but if you're feeling strong (or want to feel stronger) try the Pescado a lo Macho, which is believed to contain invigorating properties.
