Underwhelming Lomo Saltado — expected more

I was looking forward to Lomo Saltado here based on the reputation. The reality was disappointing. The fresh and marine character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with quinoa or from scaling up production at the expense of quality.

Peruvian cuisine blends indigenous Andean traditions with Japanese, Chinese, African, and Spanish influences. The a Lima cevichería setting I was hoping for wasn't quite there either. Pisco Sour was available but not suggested appropriately. I've had much better versions elsewhere. Two stars because the dish concept is sound; the execution let it down.
