Peruvian Food...

[ellymae]

Went to a Peruvian resturant last night for dinner - we don't go out of the food comfort zone too often but let me tell you - this stuff ROCKED!! I need to get some recipies. After tasting the pork stew I needed a private moment it was so good. And yes - I took plenty of pictures for your viewing pleasure...

It really looks great Elly. When we lived in Ft. Lauderdale you could find every ethnic restaurant you could think of. If you get a chance try a Brazilian restaurant. Now in Sebring about all there is is BBQ & Burgers.
