Central - Review - Barranco - Lima - The Infatuation
"Central by Virgilio Martínez is the ongoing evolution of Peruvian and Latin American fine dining, born from foreign techniques and inspired by ancestral traditions and local produce. There are various experiences to choose from: a tasting menu that explores 13 ecosystems at various altitudes in Peru, a six-hour immersive journey that stretches into different rooms in the restaurant—you’ll start at the garden, move on to the liquid lab for more courses, and end in the small chocolate factory—and a two-hour exploration into the amazing world of cacao that highlights high-end produce made with cacao, macambo, and even cacao leaves. The tasting ends with a dessert made with all the parts of Chuncho cacao. Their wine list is also a journey through Latin America, but they have bottles from all over the world, and non-alcoholic pairings that are full of flavours and surprises. Naturally, Central is a hard table to land, so book in advance. RESERVE A TABLE" - Paola Miglio
