Ceviche, Sours and Skewers in Soho!

Fancy something a little different? Well why not go Peruvian? Peruvian food is becoming very popular in the capital and a trip to Ceviche on Frith street will prove to you why. Opening roughly 12 months ago Ceviche has had a lot of success and has heralded other Peruvian restaurants like Tierra Peru in Islington and Lima in Fitzrovia.

Ceviche is a traditional Peruvian dish made primarily with the freshest fish possible, red onions, and lime juice. There is no "heat" cooking involved just acidic cooking, the citric acid within the lime essentially cooks the fish and this not only provides an extra dimension in tangy flavoring but also a fantastic biting texture. Many additions and variations make the dish really versatile. For instance simply changing different citric fruits with different types of fish create some very individual dishes. Ceviche itself have several variations including mackerel and gooseberry, salmon and satsuma, scallops and pisco. But the traditional Don ceviche seabass, lime juice and chilli exudes an amazing tangy taste that excited the tongue!

Peruvian food includes a lot of corn and maze as well as meat on sticks. Cancha a kind of un-popped giant corn kernel is the ultimate bar snack and a definitely worth starting your meal with. Peruvian corn bread goes wonderfully with your skewered meat. have either ox heart, chicken, fish or octopus all  are amazing (I've been a few times). All dishes are small and made for sharing, three or four dishes per person should do the trick. All washed down with Pisco sours or authentic Peruvian beer you'll have a wonderful meal for roughly £35pp.
