After a very long morning of shuttling to the airport and back, we started the evening once again soaking in the magic of La Huaca Pucllana ancient ruins, beautiful lighting, and that unmistakable Lima vibe. We ended the night at the bar at La Gloria, where William (the best bartender and practically family ❤️) made it unforgettable. Having my siblings in Lima for my last week here was such a blessing. Nights like these are what memories are made of. 🫶🇵🇪

🍴✨ Panchita in Miraflores is Gastón Acurio’s ode to Peruvian comfort food, and it’s especially famous for its anticuchos straight off the grill: smoky, tender, and packed with flavor. This is where classic recipes meet generous portions and a warm, bustling vibe that feels like home.
•
Come hungry, order a little bit of everything, sip a pisco cocktail, and don’t skip dessert. Suspiro a la Limeña is Lima’s most iconic sweet indulgence: a silky, caramel-like manjar blanco base topped with an airy port wine meringue. Rich yet delicate, creamy yet light, it’s like a Peruvian hug in a dessert glass. 🍮💫
•
Panchita is Miraflores at its most delicious and welcoming. 🫶🇵🇪

🌙✨ A night in Barranco is pure magic. With its cobblestone streets, colonial houses, and walls turned into canvases, this bohemian district feels alive with history and creativity. Walking through it at night with my cousins, we felt surrounded by color, music, and energy at every turn.
•
We stopped by the Puente de los Suspiros, strolled along murals that tell Lima’s story, and paused at the striking Chabuca Granda mural; a tribute to one of Peru’s most beloved voices, and the perfect symbol of Barranco’s spirit. 🎶
•
From street art to sea breezes, cafés to buzzing bars, Barranco carries you along in its rhythm. We ended the night dancing at Victoria, proof that here, art and nightlife blend seamlessly. 💃✨
•
Barranco isn’t just Lima’s bohemian heart — it’s a neighborhood that makes you part of its story. 🌎🙏❤️ 🇵🇪

🔥 Lima’s food scene is a battlefield, 🔥 and I’m here for it. While Gastón Acurio may be the face of Peruvian gastronomy, Rafael Osterling is proving he’s no understudy. At El Mercado, his seafood temple, we dove into an assortment of grilled scallops in the half shell, the squid ink seafood black rice, the Mercado ceviche, and a bubbling cast-iron pan of seafood with aioli that was pure comfort-meets-creativity. 🐟🦑🦐
•
This is Osterling at his best: bold, fresh, and unapologetically inventive. And honestly, the friendly rivalry with Gastón is only good news for foodies like me; it means Lima’s flavors just keep getting better, brighter, and more unforgettable. 🌎✨

At Tokuyo Casa Nikkei in Miraflores, 🍣 dishes bring together Japanese technique with Peruvian flavors in a way that feels warm and familiar. From fresh sashimi to Nikkei classics to ramen with a homestyle touch, everything was delicious and satisfying. ❤️

✨ Late lunch at Jerónimo Lima turned into a full-on flavor adventure ✨
This trendy spot in Miraflores is all about bold fusion, sharing plates, and seriously good cocktails.
•
The vibe? Lively, urban, and effortlessly chic: low lighting, music buzzing, and a bar that makes you want to stay all night (don’t skip the mezcal cocktails 🍸).
•
Jeronimo is a full experience: flavors that wake you up, a setting that feels cosmopolitan, and that cool energy that makes you want to come back again and again. Lima’s food scene never misses.
•
A big thank you to my cousin Patricio. Some meals go beyond flavor. That afternoon, at Jerónimo, I was reminded not to take those moments for granted. Good meals with family don’t happen often, and when they do, they’re everything. 🙏❤️
Did someone say limoncello? 😉🍋

✨ Dinner with a view like no other ✨
At La Huaca Pucllana in Lima, you don’t just dine, you step into history. The restaurant is set beside a stunning pre-Incan adobe pyramid in Miraflores, and the atmosphere is simply unforgettable: softly lit ruins, an open sky, and a table surrounded by thousands of years of culture. 🏜️🌜
•
The menu balances classic Peruvian flavors with refined technique. From perfectly fresh ceviches to slow-braised meats and delicate Amazonian touches. Every plate felt both rooted in tradition and elevated for today. Pair that with a crisp Pisco Sour (or two 🍸) and you’ve got the full experience. 😘👌
•
La Huaca is one of those rare places where the food, the drinks, and the view come together seamlessly, making it a must-visit in Lima and the perfect setting for a memorable evening. 🌙✨

✨ Anniversary night to remember ✨
My husband and I celebrated at Astrid & Gastón in Lima, a true icon of Peruvian gastronomy. Set inside the historic Casa Moreyra, this restaurant embodies the vision of Astrid Gutsche & Gastón Acurio, where heritage, creativity, and seasonality come together in every detail.
•
We savored the Fall–Winter 2025 tasting menu with drink pairings, an evocative journey through Peru’s landscapes and memories:
✨
“La Bienvenida” welcomed us with croquetas, alfajorcitos, and nostalgic breads and butters, like taste buds reconnecting with home.
✨
“Volvemos”, inspired by Lima, was a lively duet of langostino salvaje with ají mirasol, and lengua with ají panca; bold, deeply Peruvian flavors.
✨
“Cruzamos” transported us to the Amazon: delicate hare with cacao and castaña, followed by lechón paired with coconut and sacha culantro; a lush, unexpected delight.
✨
The grand finale unfolded with sweet poetry: manzanilla-pisco-pollen, merengue with tomillo, lima, toronja and bergamot, ending with brioche, flan and amaretto; and, of course, Astrid’s chocolates. Pure bliss.
✨
Each pairing, from crisp whites to deep reds, dessert wines to inventive cocktails, added a new layer to the experience. 🍷✨
•
The service, storytelling, and setting made it more than just dinner, it was a celebration of Peru, and the perfect way to mark our anniversary. 💫❤️
