Ingredient appreciation — what makes Anticuchos special

What sets Anticuchos apart is the handling of purple corn. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the fresh and marine result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience.

Lima is considered one of the world's great culinary destinations. The a Lima cevichería atmosphere was right for this kind of food. I had Inca Kola as recommended and it matched well. If you want to understand what makes this cuisine distinctive, Anticuchos is the place to start.
