Arequipa foodies

For three successive evenings in Arequipa, we had dinner at top-rated restaurants: Zingaro, Zig Zag, and Chicha. Chicha is the creation of Perú's best-known (celebrity) chef. Our Lonely Planet guidebook claims it is somewhat controversial, snubbed by foodie purists. And although the physical space isn't as dramatic as the colonial barrel-vaults of its rivals, the food was consistently better and more interesting. 

Some assorted photos follow.
