“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.
