Kjolle - Review - Barranco - Lima - The Infatuation

"Kjolle is a young restaurant led by Pía León that’s based on the research at Mater, an interdisciplinary gastronomic research center that also informs Central and Mil in Cusco. It’s an experience rooted in territory. There are four tasting menus ranging from seven to nine courses, and throughout the night, you’ll find no special effects, no endless backstories—just bold cooking that steps away from the classics. Take, for example, their Muchos Tubérculos course (it never leaves the menu), a delicate tart highlighting tubers, currently made with cañihua, goat cheese, and mashed native yellow potato, served with a side of vegetables and sachapapa. Despite the fine dining attitude, Kjolle is a casual space, full of color and minimalist art. RESERVE A TABLE" - Paola Miglio
