MO-CHICA Peruvian
Chef Ricardo Zarate, formerly of Zuma, the acclaimed Japanese restaurant in London, brings his native Peruvian pulse to Downtown LA.
The tart and spicy fare of this modern/traditional Peruvian cuisine will stick to your ribs. Relish in specialty dishes such as Aji de Gallina- shredded organic chicken with bread sauce and walnuts, and a strong shot of Ceviche, made with white fish, seaweed, Peruvian sweet corn, and leche de tigre. Chicha morada, a juice made from Peru’s purple sweet corn is worth a try.
The eatery is booming during lunchtime with the local crowds. Don’t miss the once-a-month special evening tasting menu to experience true Peruvian gastronomic flavors and textures. Once you locate this hidden gem, treat yourself to a Pisco Sour, the traditional Peruvian cocktail.
