"Few restaurants combine British produce, Peruvian cooking, and an epic-sounding narrative, but Pachamama does just that. The Peruvian restaurant divides its menu like Noah organising his ark on Excel—there's soil, land, and sea—and there are plenty of Chinese-Peruvian bits to get you going. Things like prawn toast with an ají panca sauce mean that Pachamama’s menu tastes as exciting as it reads. Combined with an always-enticing trio of plants, exposed brickwork, and pisco cocktails, this Shoreditch spot is a backpocket favourite." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley
