[ The experience ]

Eight to twelve places.

Lima is a direct flight from Mexico City, and a city people travel to for the food.

The journey turns on three nights and three tasting menus in three of the city’s chef-led kitchens, confirmed in writing before booking opens. The last in a private room for the group alone. Around them, the Surquillo market with a local cook, a hands-on class in Peruvian cooking and cacao from bean to bar.

And what is not eaten: Pachacámac above the ocean, the Larco Museum and sunset on the Barranco clifftop. One hotel in Barranco all four nights, no altitude and no dawn starts, and a local guide with the group from start to finish.
