Hotels near Casita Andina

Located on Great Windmill Street, Casita Andina is inspired by Peruvian 'picanterias', family-run, traditional restaurants which restaurant owner and founder of Ceviche , Martin Morales, grew up eating in . Usually found in the Andes in the homes of 'Andinas' (women from the Andes), such picanterias gave Martin his love and knowledge of cooking. Drawing on these memories and his grandmother's recipes, Martin has created an intimate, charming 'home from home' with Castia Andina. Traditional Andean dishes and snacks are served along with healthy 'superfoods' like quinoa, maca and amaranth. The kitchen is headed up by executive chef Vitelio Reyes, previously at Lima Floral, whose menu includes maca lamb, king prawns and la soltera - a vegetarian dish of black quinoa, green peas, oca and lamb's lettuce with queso fresco sauce. Finish with dessert of choc con sauco, a melt-in-the-middle Peruvian chocolate with pisco-infused elderberries. Like a welcoming home, there's a cosy feel to the 58-seat restaurant which is divided into two floors with a bright 30-seat upstairs dining room leading out to an open air patio.
