Honest verdict on Causa Rellena — good but not exceptional

Causa Rellena here was solidly made — subtly sweet with chilli heat without anything to complain about. huacatay black mint was present and handled reasonably. But something was missing from the depth that this dish should have.

Lima is considered one of the world's great culinary destinations. The a market anticucho stall atmosphere was pleasant enough. cold Cusqueña beer was available and a good suggestion. For a reliable version of Causa Rellena this works. For an exceptional one, I'd keep looking. Three stars.
