10 Amazing Restaurants Worth Traveling For - AFAR

"Perched at about 11,700 feet beside the Inca ruins at Moray in the Sacred Valley, this high‑altitude restaurant is a research-driven kitchen where on‑staff anthropologists collaborate with Indigenous communities to recover rare ingredients and ancestral techniques. Tasting menus map micro-ecosystems across altitude zones and feature ingredients like alpaca, tree tomato, many tuber varieties and chaco (edible clay); for travelers who want to go deeper, an Immersion program includes a guided ruins tour, walks through surrounding farmlands, foraging for medicinal plants, and tastings of ferments and spirits made from tubers, legumes, cereals and roots." - Nicholas DeRenzo
