“The Peruvian Brothers serve authentic
“Comida Criolla”, the tastiest part of their Peruvian heritage rooted in Andean, Spanish, African and Asian influences.
The flavors that dominated their childhood in Lima are the tastes they craved most after moving to the United States.
Sandwiches like Pan con Chicharrón, an addictive combination of salted pork loin and sweet potato pair nicely with fresh sides and salads packed with Superfoods from Peru.
Recipes passed down in the Lanzone family as well as Chef Mario’s own original spins on traditional Peruvian favorites give the menu an authentic taste with a unique, healthy twist.
After twelve years of operation, the Peruvian Brothers have expanded from one original food truck to four food trucks, restaurants, concession stands at stadiums, theatres, zoos, farmer’s markets and a large scale catering company serving the entire District of Columbia metro area including Maryland and Virginia.”
Thanks to Vera and Erich for sending the latest on their expansion: (more…)
