What should you eat in Lima?
Start with ceviche, Peru's national dish, and move on to lomo saltado, causa limeña and anticuchos. Lima's cuisine blends ingredients from the coast, the highlands and the jungle, and you can enjoy it both at markets and at a restaurant table.
Ceviche
Peru's national dish: fresh fish cooked in lime juice, with sweet potato, onion, corn and ají chili pepper. Lima has the greatest variety, as well as tiradito, a version without onion.
Lomo saltado
A symbol of the fusion of Asian and Peruvian cooking: beef, tomato, ají and onion stir-fried over high heat.
Causa limeña
One of the most original dishes of Lima's cuisine, made with yellow potato.
Anticuchos
Beef heart skewers grilled over charcoal, an icon of Lima's popular culture.
Chifa
Chinese-Peruvian cuisine was born from Chinese immigration. The Barrio Chino is a good place to try it.
Markets
Visiting a market is a way to discover fresh fruit, ají peppers and fish. The Surquillo market, near Miraflores, is a go-to for locals and chefs.
Pisco and desserts
Try a pisco sour and Lima desserts such as suspiro a la limeña or picarones.
What practical tips should you know before traveling to Lima?
Dress in layers, wear sunscreen even when it's cloudy, carry some cash for small purchases and check whether you need a plug adapter.
Language
Spanish is the most widely spoken language. Learning a few basic phrases helps at markets and in traditional neighborhoods.
Clothing
In summer, light clothing; from June to September, a sweater or a light jacket for the humidity. Bring comfortable walking shoes.
Sun
Wear sunscreen and sunglasses, even on cloudy days and on the oceanfront promenade.
Money
You can find ATMs in almost every city in the country. Carry some cash in soles for small purchases and markets.
Plugs
Electricity is 220 volts. If your devices only work on 110 volts, bring an adapter or transformer.
For your trip around Peru
If you then continue to Cusco or other regions, check the weather for each destination: the coast, the highlands and the jungle have different seasons.
What can you do in Lima in a week?
This is an optional idea. If you only have two or three days, days 2 to 4 cover the essentials: the Centro Histórico, Miraflores, Barranco and Lima's cuisine. With more time, add the beach, Pachacamac and some rest.
