    What an utter disappointment. The decor and ambiance look good on the surface. When you are seated you notice the thick layer of dust on the wood paneling and on the vase housing the very unhygienic dried grass on the table. Besides the cockroaches that were crawling across our table, the food was an utter let down. Under seasoned is being generous and the portions for the price were tiny. A bit of salt and garlic would have helped. Tinned beans! Tinned pie apple with a lick of tinned caramel for the price borders on fraud. Please don't believe the menu. The food resembles nothing like South American food which is generously seasoned and even more generously served. What an utter and absolute sham. When we showed the waiter the cockroaches, she apologised and comped our dessert but the owner who welcomed us was conspicuously missing. I was ill in the night. Please do not frequent this establishment for the sake of your health and your bank balance.

    My partner finally got to experience the food library and we both experience chapter 2 together. The Peruvian food is delicious and so appreciate the educating of the cuisine at the beginning. It’s definitely such an experience that’s worth enjoying with friends, partners or family.
