What is a Huarique?  A Huarique is a Peruvian slang word for a hole-in-the-wall restaurant, which has a well respected reputation among not just the local populace but from many who have dined within it's walls.  The food is fantastic and simple, with very sophisticated flavors that keep you coming back for more.  A Huarique is often a small restaurant that is packed full of local patrons who make up the collaborative orchestra of conversation and clanking cutlery and plates.


When it comes to Huariques no other blog covers the topic better than the fine group at Huariques.com, a site which is dedicated to turning over every culinary stone in Lima (and other cities as well) search of authentic Huariques.  I check this site out quite regularly and I highly recommend it for those who are looking to break away from the mundane routine of over-frequented restaurants.

For those interested in the site I have provided the link below
