Best Hole in the Wall

Café Tostado

Don Pepe Giuffra started out in 1997 with a small space where he sold roasted coffee. But a love for cooking and the desire to make his friends happy led him to shift gears, and Café Tostado, located at Calle Nicolás de Piérola 232, became a huarique in the traditional district of Barranco. Don Pepe, now 67 years old, is an expert in animal husbandry by profession and a cook out of passion. He offers a different dish every day; there’s no menu. The star of the show here is rabbit. Guests show up without warning; the establishment has no social media presence, but word of mouth has spread so quickly that there’s never a lack of people coming in search of food.
