I'm in Cusco for a little while. The market here is maybe bigger than Arequipa's, and some of the food is different. I like noni -- it's a fruit I can get in Arequipa -- but I haven't found it here. But they have cichcharron that is just as good as the cichcharron in Arequipa. The only difference for me is that I have a favorite chicharron lady in Arequipa. Cichcharron is deep-fried pork.
I come here around 10AM and sit down at one of these stalls. I eat a couple fried eggs and some potatoes. I have to go back into the touristy part of town to get coffee. In Arequipa, I drink chicha in the market, but I can't find it here. It's made from purple corn.
Yeah, there's just something really nice about going café or a restaurant where you know the staff, isn't there?
I tend to get a bit too stale with my café choices though so I have this rule of thumb that if I go to one café twice in a row I will then go to a completely new café to spice things up.

My chicharron lady is a real character. One time I went to the stall next to hers and she pretended to be upset with me for a week.

I'm gonna say yes. At least in South America. Of course I have some Japanese dishes that I really like a lot, but you can't really get them cooked right anywhere outside of Japan.

Different countries in South America make it differently. I don't like the way the Mexicans make it. I like Peru's way best. Everybody in South America likes Peruvian cooking. It's famous.

Oh, that's good to know. Thank you for the heads up, I'll try to find a place where they make it the Peru's way then
