Mayta
Peruvian
A ten-course tasting menu built around ingredients most diners have never heard of, from Amazonian algae to Andean tubers, gives this Miraflores fine dining room a distinctly explorer's quality. Chef Jaime Pesaque treats Peruvian biodiversity as the whole point, not a garnish, and the restaurant sits on the World's 50 Best list at number 39. The room fills with the kind of travelers who planned their Lima trip around the reservation.
