Zeño Manué

Description:

• This restaurant specializes in old-fashioned creole cooking. You can ask for a piqueo (light side dish), but also be sure to try the cebiche (fish marinated in lime juice), the seco (a Peruvian variety of stew) or the anticuchos (brochettes of meat). Among the desserts, popular choices include the Suspiro a la Limeña (a baked dish made from egg-whites and meringue) and Picarones (fried pancakes with syrup). Accompanying the Peruvian cuisine is a wide variety of wines in addition to, of course, the exquisite, popular and seductively refreshing Pisco sour (a drink made from white-grape spirit, lemon juice, sugar and in some recipes, a touch of egg-white). The restaurant turns into a piano bar at night, and on Saturdays and Sundays a grand buffet is set up, accompanied by a live music show.
