Sabor Peruano
Flavor: Peru has one of the world’s most diverse cuisines, with flavors from the high mountains of the Andes all the way down to the coast, with its Asian influences. Sabor Peruano’s huge menu seems to have a little bit of it all. Try Bisteck a la Pobre, steak with rice, fries, fried banana and egg, or Tallarines Saltado de Vegetales, a veggie spin on spaghetti.
Flair: Authentic, no-frills ethnic dining offering strange and unfamiliar dishes with no pandering to the unadventurous.
