What we sayLanguage
Spanish and QuechuaGraciasthank you
Peru’s cooking draws on Indigenous Andean traditions and on waves of Spanish, African, Chinese and Japanese influence. The results are unmistakable: bright ceviches cured in lime, Chinese-Peruvian stir-fries, and Nikkei dishes that blend Japan and Peru on the same plate.
In the Andes, the Sacred Valley is home to thousands of native potato varieties, quinoa and corn grown on ancient terraces. Farmers and young chefs are working together to bring these ingredients to new tables.
From Lima’s celebrated restaurants to a highland lunch cooked in the earth, Peru turns every meal into a story about place.
Insider tip from Richard
Richard Gruica, your host
Have ceviche at lunch, never at dinner. It's a midday dish here, and the fish is freshest before the afternoon.
Before you go
Say it like a local.
A few words of Spanish and Quechua go a long way at the table in Peru.
- ¡Hola! Say it: OH-lah hello
- Gracias Say it: GRAH-see-ahs thank you
- ¡Salud! Say it: sah-LOOD cheers
- ¡Buen provecho! Say it: bwen proh-VEH-choh enjoy your meal
