Fodor's Expert Review El Fayke Piurano
$$
El Centro
Peruvian
This bustling two-story eatery specializes in comida norteña—northern cooking from the city of Piura. That means delicious grouper cebiche,seco de cabrito (goat stew), and green tamales—all in gut-busting portions. This is a classic example of what Peruvians call a huarique: a hole-in-the-wall restaurant where in-the-know locals go for homestyle cooking—at prices that won't break the bank.
