Insane Peruvian Food Tour in Lima: South America Food Capital

Editor's Take

Making the case for Lima as South America's culinary capital, this film samples the ceviche, lomo saltado, and inventive cooking that have earned Peruvian cuisine its reputation. It pairs the dishes with the traditions behind them, keeping the focus tight on a single city. The runtime is compact, the energy high. It offers a concentrated introduction rather than a comprehensive survey.

This film explores Lima, the undisputed food capital of South America, home to ceviche, lomo saltado, and some of the most creative cuisine on the continent. It samples the dishes and traditions that have made Peruvian cooking world-famous. Shot in 4K, it captures both the flavours and the culinary energy of the city. It is a compact but rich tour of one of the world's great food destinations. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
