Here is a list of 3 top Peruvian restaurants in Barcelona. As you have noticed reading my food posts, I have a strong taste for raw food of all sorts. This is why I thought about writing something on a cuisine I really love: Peruvian cuisine.
- Mochica: This is the first Peruvian restaurant I tried in Barcelona. Last time I was in Mochica, there was a huge screen at the back, bachata and salsa playing in the background. It is not a fancy restaurant. It looks more like a canteen or like a popular eatery like ones you would imagine back in Peru. I like the place. The food is nice, very good value and served in huge portions. Really huge…The ceviches are really nice and so are the pisco sours.
- Tanta: Tanta is for fine dining. The place is elegant and refined. The waiters have funky T-shirts with a funny message on them (won’t say too much!). The menu offers classic food but also some dishes with Asian influence. That is two of my favourite cuisines in one so I can only give the thumbs up. The food is at the image of the place equally elegant and refined also quiet creative. I will come back for sure and I would like to try the chiferos cha siu and the makis!!!
- Ceviche 103: My preferred place of them all. The restaurant is very welcoming with bright colours. It is modern and trendy. I love their cocktails. For me, it is one of the best places for cocktails I have been to in Barcelona. Try especially their signature cocktail, El 103. I also loved every dish I ordered here: ceviches, causa, quinoa salad, all very flavoursome. But moreover I lo-ve the tiradito nikkei, a dish of raw fish (of course) with leche de tigre with tamarind. Slurp! My favourite.
