Peru 's rich history is reflected in its cuisine, which is one of the most diverse in the world. Influenced in turn by Spain, Africa, France, China and Japan, Peruvian cuisine is the epitome of fusion cuisine, a term that has been misused today because of its long multicultural history.
The Japanese presence on Peruvian soil gave rise to nikkei cuisine - a term originally used to describe Japanese emigrants to South America and Peru in particular - a fusion cuisine characterized by the use of both Japanese and Peruvian foods and techniques.
Among the most famous Peruvian dishes to be found in Peruvian restaurants in Paris, ceviche is undoubtedly at the top of the list, a dish based on raw fish marinated in lime juice with a maximum of fresh herbs and spices.
Another popular dish, lomo saltado, is beef sautéed with potatoes, vegetables and rice, whileají de gallina is shredded meat with a creamy chili-based sauce. So, let's go and discover the best Peruvian restaurants in Paris?
