Charquekan here was solidly made — earthy from Andean ingredients without anything to complain about. charque dried llama meat was present and handled reasonably. But something was missing from the depth that this dish should have.

Bolivia preserves some of the most ancient Andean food traditions including chuño freeze-drying which dates to pre-Inca times. The a traditional Andean home atmosphere was pleasant enough. cola morada was available and a good suggestion. For a reliable version of Charquekan this works. For an exceptional one, I'd keep looking. Three stars.
