Epic_seafood_in_PERU_extreme_cooking_skills_in_chorrillos_fishing_village_in_lima
Chorrillos, Lima, Peru - Located within Lima, yet it feels like a totally different city, is Chorrillos, a fishing village. There’s a community of fishermen, a boat harbor, fish and seafood market, and even a man who makes fishing boats by hand for the village. It was fantastic to walk around the village, the fish market, and take a quick boat ride to get started.
We then continued walking through Chorrillos to a Peruvian Creole (Typically of Spanish descent, but mixed with Indigenous and Afro-Peruvian cultures), family who raises roosters and also cooks insanely delicious Peruvian seafood.
Here are the Peruvian food seafood dishes we ate:
Mixed ceviche - Raw fish, squid, scallops
Tiradito - Sashimi cut raw fish, yellow pepper sauce
Ceviche - Peruvian sole ceviche
Sudado - Peruvian fish stew
It was an amazing meal with some of the most complex and delicious ceviche I had during my entire trip to Peru, and some of the best Peruvian food I’ve tried. The view and setting were also fantastic.
