Restaurant Luchita

After a long day watching monks cast themselves off cliffs, and traipsing about ancient pre-Columbian pyramids, it was time to eat.  Our tour was taken to Restaurante Luchita for some authentic Peruvian cuisine.  It’s a charming restaurant with several individual rooms capable of handling various party sizes.  Here you can see our group’s table:

And, as I wandered about the restaurant, I came across anther party getting ready to chow down:

You may notice that in our party there are few people seated.  I wonder where they could have been?

As for the food, you can tell how good it was because I forgot to photograph it.  I don’t recall precisely what we ate, but both Ursula and I have fond memories of the experience.  Overall, it’s a place I highly recommend, especially after hiking to the top of the Temple of the Sun.
