Chorrillos

First of all, we will visit the Chorrillos Artisanal Fishing Pier. It is one of the major trading points for marine products in the capital and mainly in the area. If we go back in history, they revolve around the sea and the fact of being the first spa in Peru in the times of Castile. The Lima of the wall received mullet and croaker daily brought in old baskets by the wives of the fishermen, whose donkeys walked the cobbled streets of the city to ship their merchandise from door to door.

Mercado nro 1 de Surquillo

Secondly, we will visit the Surquillo Market. This market has become a kind of mecca for international foodies after the praise of famous Peruvian chef Gastón Acurio. The market is open every day and the vast amount of food and spices sold here include exotic fruits from the Amazon rainforest, potatoes and chilies from the tops of the distant Andes mountains, fresh fish and seafood from the coast and meats of different types, including alpaca and the famous guinea pig. Continuing our gastronomic experience, we will visit 2 of the fast food restaurants that are very popular among Limeños and foreigners due to their participation in a documentary titled Street Food Latin America and in both Huariques we will try their different specialties.
