Keto friendliness

Fundamentally hostile to keto; the culinary DNA is inextricably tied to over 4,000 varieties of potatoes, plus corn and rice.

Top ingredients

Ceviche (only if you explicitly ask for no sweet potato or corn) and simple grilled meats.

Danger zones

Nearly every dish revolves around or is served with potatoes, french fries, rice, quinoa, yuca, or ají sauces thickened with crackers.

Best for

Highly disciplined dieters willing to completely deconstruct their meals and eat very plain proteins.

What to drink

Drinks you will see at Peruvian restaurants, cafés and stalls, rated the same way as the food.
