Peru National Day Serves Up Delicious Dishes

Yesterday, the promise of free food from Shanghai’s F&B prince Eduardo Vargas and unlimited cups of pisco lured us to the Expo to celebrate Peruvian National Day. After noshing on Peruvian delicacies like butifarra limena (a delightfully fatty pork sandwich garnished with red onions, cilantro and whole lot of flavour) from the kitchen of Eduardo Vargas, we lamented the lack of Peruvian cuisine in Shangers. Sure, Vargas nailed it with Brasa, but if the food coming out of the Peru Pavilion is any indication, this former Incan empire has a lot more than chicken to offer the hungry masses.

Luckily, it’s Eduardo Vargas to the rescue. He’s got a Peruvian bar in the works on the corner of Fuxing Lu and Sinan Lu (which is also blowing up for another one of the city’s F&B royalty), and he plans on serving tapas not unlike what he’s dishing out at the Peruvian Kitchen. If you’re hungry in Expo land, head over to Peru and grab yourself some antichuco de carne and a pisco sour for a preview – or you can wait until October when the real deal will open just south of the Huangpi metro stop.
