Pre booked to come for dinner, but ended up turning up early and sitting at the bar... 10 minutes later whilst trying to figure out which pisco option to go through, a table opened up and we were seated and ready for food!Started off with the corn cake which was so so.. Not so much taste, and probably could've been better served with more mushroom, but thats just personal preference. Probably a bit dry for my liking. Also tried the nikkei tartare which was quite nice. Kind of like a spicy salmon

Pre booked to come for dinner, but ended up turning up early and sitting at the bar... 10 minutes later whilst trying to figure out which pisco option to go through, a table opened up and we were seated and ready for food!

Started off with the corn cake which was so so.. Not so much taste, and probably could've been better served with more mushroom, but thats just personal preference. Probably a bit dry for my liking. Also tried the nikkei tartare which was quite nice. Kind of like a spicy salmon sashimi. Not sure how peruvian this is, but it definitely tasted like something which could come off a japanese menu. The third appetizer we tried was the pan con chicharron, which was basically a bun with crispy pork bits inside. This was nice, probably something that you would expect from a nice bar / lounge menu. The highlight of the night's dishes for sure, although one was definitely enough just to taste.

Finally topped it all off with the mixto which was definitely not expected. Served cold, and with a distinct lime flavour, this basically tasted like a cold seafood soup. The seafood itself wasn't necessarily fresh, although this probably was not what the chef was going for.

All in all, it was an interesting experience... different. And thats what we were going for. We did not expect a really nice dinner with amazing flavours which would sing to our tastebuds. We just wanted a unique experience for a friday night. Which is exactly what we got.
