Madam Tusan

Madam Tusan offers Peruvian-Chinese fusion by Gastón Acurio in the Miraflores district of Lima, Peru. This style of recipes, known as Chifa, arrived from the east during the 1940s and took new forms and flavors at the meeting of Peruvian ingredients. Chifas are overwhelmingly simple and generally inexpensive. While their influence on mainstream Peruvian cuisine is clearly evident, most Chifas serve what is for the most part standard Cantonese cuisine.

La Mar Cebicheria

When in Lima, you have to immerse yourself in the genuine cebicheria experience – and there is nowhere better to do so than at Gaston Acurio’s hot spot, La Mar Cebicheria. Stylishly designed – with a striking concrete façade jutting onto the tree-lined avenue and a bamboo roof over the airy dining area – La Mar is full of fashionable young Limenos as well as curious out-of-towners.
