My husband and I went to Perú Chicken last night for dinner. Despite the language barrier, we were able to order and receive a delicious meal.
We used the QR code on the table to find the English menu. There are only soft drinks on the English menu, but after finding the Instagram profile for this restaurant, we showed the waitress a pic. of Pisco Sours and she understood that's what we wanted to drink. They were absolutely delicious! They did take a while to be made and one was delivered about 5 minutes before the next arrived.
My husband ordered the Poor Man's Steak just to see what it was about. It was served on top of fries, with rice on the side, half a plantain and a salad. The steak was a bit chewy and the fries had no salt, but he still enjoyed it. He used the sauce from my veggies/meat to dip the fries into for some flavour.
My meal was the Fettuccine with huancaina and lome saltada. It was really tasty. The fettucine was in a creamy sauce with a tiny bit of heat. The meat was cooked really nicely with a bit of pink in the centre and the tomatoes and onions were also cooked well. The sauce was pretty salty, but it all went well together.
We will definitely return to try other dishes while we're here in Panama City. read more
