Nikkei and peruvian-japanese cuisine

1 Maido

1 Maido

The SUMMUM award winner in its category, Maido stands out this year for offering the very best nikkei cuisine in Peru. The talent and creativity on display here have been taken to the next level by chef and owner Mitsuharu Tsumura, captivating diners with a perfect blend of Japan’s traditions and refined techniques, with a dash of Peruvian influence added to this exquisite fusion.

In Osaka’s novel vocabulary, words like wasabi, miso or kyuri are joined together with rocoto, quinoa and chalaquita. Rather than trying to pinpoint whether this restaurant’s essence is more Japanese or more peruvian, we recommend sitting back and enjoying its exquisite nikkei cuisine that brings together the best of both worlds.
