Aeropuerto

Aeropuerto

A chifa classic where fried rice and noodles land in the same wok. Loose rice, noodles, chicken, egg, and bean sprouts come out steaming, deeply savory, and properly stir-fried without turning heavy or clumpy. Hearty, streetwise, and dangerously easy to keep eating.

Peruvian Ceviche-Style Wings

A crispy wing snack with the bright punch of Peruvian ceviche. Hot and juicy inside, the wings are coated at the last moment with a creamy lime, ají limo, and cilantro sauce that cuts through the frying without killing the crunch. The kind that makes the bowl migrate back toward you.

Soy-Glazed Chicken Wings

Soy-Glazed Chicken Wings

Chifa-style chicken wings, crisp outside and juicy inside, finished in a glossy, lightly sweet soy glaze. Lemon cuts through the saltiness and fresh scallions go on just before serving. Sticky, savory, and made to disappear from the plate by hand.

Peruvian-Style Arabic Rice

Peruvian-Style Arabic Rice

A festive Peruvian side of fluffy rice, toasted vermicelli, and a sweet-savory balance. Dark, aromatic, and punctuated by crunchy pecans, it carries the unmistakable Christmas and New Year character that makes it far more than “just rice.”

Amazonian Arroz Chaufa

Amazonian Arroz Chaufa

An Amazonian chaufa made to come smoking-hot from the wok. Toasted rice picks up the smokiness of cecina and Amazonian chorizo, while ripe plantain, sweet chile, and sacha culantro push the chifa foundation firmly into jungle territory. Bold, loose-grained, and full of contrast, the Amazonian ingredients are not decoration here—they lead the dish.

Classic Arroz Chaufa

Classic Arroz Chaufa

A Peruvian chifa staple built for high heat. The rice stays loose and lightly toasted, with browned chicken, tender egg, and the unmistakable savory backbone of soy sauce, ginger, and scallions.

Beef Arroz Chaufa

Beef Arroz Chaufa

A beef chaufa that tastes of the wok, not just sauce. Juicy browned strips of beef meet loose fried rice, egg, and scallions, with just enough soy sauce, ginger, and sesame to build the chifa backbone. Steaming, toasted, and deeply savory, this is the kind of chaufa meant to be eaten the moment it hits the table.

Pork Arroz Chaufa

Pork Arroz Chaufa

A chifa classic where roast pork takes over the wok. The rice stays loose and toasted, with tender egg, scallions, and the smoky sweetness of pork sharpened by soy and sesame. Juicy, aromatic, and freshly stir-fried, this chaufa has no need to hide under a mountain of sauce.

Seafood Arroz Chaufa

Seafood Arroz Chaufa

A seafood chaufa where the wok matters just as much as the shellfish. The rice stays loose and toasted, the seafood juicy, and the egg tender, with soy, oyster sauce, ginger, and sesame building a chifa backbone without burying the flavor of the sea. Steaming, savory, and made to disappear as soon as it reaches the table.

Chicken Arroz Chaufa

Chicken Arroz Chaufa

The chaufa that defines the Peruvian chifa table. Loose wok-toasted rice, juicy chicken, tender egg, and scallions meet just enough soy sauce, with ginger and sesame lifting the finish. Fast, steaming, and dangerously easy to come back for.

Special Arroz Chaufa

Special Arroz Chaufa

The celebration chaufa of the Peruvian chifa table: loose, toasted rice with juicy chicken, roast pork, shrimp, and tender egg. Soy sauce, ginger, scallions, and a restrained touch of oyster sauce support all three proteins without turning the rice into a dark, soggy mass. Loaded, steaming, and generous, yet still tasting first and foremost of the wok.

Asian-Style Fried Rice

Asian-Style Fried Rice

A skillet fried rice that turns yesterday's cold rice into separate, lightly toasted grains. Soft egg, browned ham and crisp-tender vegetables meet soy and sesame without weighing the rice down. It comes together fast, eats like a full meal and has a habit of disappearing straight from the pan.

Stir-Fried Bitter Melon with Beef and Black Beans

Stir-Fried Bitter Melon with Beef and Black Beans

A Peruvian-Chinese stir-fry of bitter melon, beef, and fermented black beans in a deeply savory dark sauce. The beef stays juicy, the bitter melon keeps some bite, and potato starch lightly coats everything without turning the dish heavy.

Peruvian Sweet and Sour Pork

Peruvian Sweet and Sour Pork

Crispy pork finished in a glossy sweet-and-sour sauce of pineapple, vinegar, and soy sauce. The pepper and onion stay firm, the fruit stays juicy, and the pork keeps some crunch beneath the glaze. Home-style Peruvian chifa that practically asks for white rice on the side.

Peruvian Chifa Pork with Tamarind Sauce

Peruvian Chifa Pork with Tamarind Sauce

A Peruvian chifa classic: wok-browned pork with bell pepper, snow peas, and scallions coated in a glossy sweet-and-sour tamarind sauce. This home version keeps the dish's character without breading or deep-frying and reaches the table quickly.

Lucuma and Oreo Cheesecake

Lucuma and Oreo Cheesecake

A chilled lucuma cheesecake on an Oreo crust with cream cheese, condensed milk, and whipped cream. Lucuma remains the dominant flavor while the dark cookie adds contrast. Gelatin provides only enough structure for clean slices, keeping the filling creamy rather than rubbery.

Passion Fruit Cheesecake

Passion Fruit Cheesecake

A chilled passion fruit cheesecake on a compact cookie crust. Gelatin gives the filling enough structure without making it rubbery, while a cooked passion fruit topping adds shine and acidity. Creamy, tropical, and designed to slice cleanly after a long chill.

Peruvian Chicken Chicharrón

Peruvian Chicken Chicharrón

Juicy pieces of chicken under a thin, crisp crust, seasoned with soy sauce, mustard, garlic, and cumin. Fried cassava provides the hearty side while a lime, red onion, and ají limo salsa criolla cuts through the richness exactly where it should. Hot, crunchy, and equally at home as lunch, dinner, or a shared snack.

Peruvian Chimichurri

Peruvian Chimichurri

A fresh Peruvian chimichurri for grilled meats and chicken. Herbal, tangy and gently spicy, it combines parsley and cilantro with the character of ají amarillo. Loose, punchy and made to brighten every bite.

Peruvian-Style Stir-Fried Cauliflower

Peruvian-Style Stir-Fried Cauliflower

Cauliflower prepared in the style of a Peruvian saltado: browned edges, lively onion and tomato, ají amarillo, and a short soy-and-vinegar sauce. French fries complete this inexpensive, satisfying homestyle dish, served straight from the wok.

Brown Rice Salad With Asian Dressing

Bean Sprout Salad

Bean Sprout Salad

Vibrant crunch and an Asian-style aroma that wakes up the palate in seconds. This salad is the fresh side of Peruvian Chifa: crisp bean sprouts, light vegetables, and a soy, vinegar, and sesame dressing that lands clean. Direct, refreshing, and salty-bright enough to cut through richer dishes.

Chifa-Style Smashed Cucumber Salad

Chifa-Style Smashed Cucumber Salad

The perfect balance between crisp freshness and vibrant umami. Using the traditional smashing technique, the cucumber breaks open to absorb every drop of a sweet-and-sour dressing with deep sesame and garlic notes. It is an essential, light, and stimulating side dish in Chifa cooking. Fresh, bold, and direct.

Oriental-Style Quinoa Salad

Oriental-Style Quinoa Salad

Grainy, noble texture shaped by the Andean super grain and an oriental umami balance. It is a vibrant fusion where cucumber freshness and sweet corn meet the depth of soy sauce and sesame oil. An honest, nutritious dish with real character.

Oriental Fusion Salad

Oriental Fusion Salad

Crispy textures and a sweet-sour balance that pays tribute to our Chifa heritage. This oriental salad stands out for the contrast between fresh vegetables and the crunchy hit of fried wonton, creating an irresistible harmony of textures. Pure vitality served with the unique character of Peruvian-Chinese fusion.

Crispy Taypa Noodles

Crispy Taypa Noodles

A Peruvian-Chinese dish built around contrast: golden, brittle noodles underneath a generous, glossy taypa straight from the wok. The sauce softens some sections while others keep their crunch, so every bite shifts between juicy and crisp. The real challenge is not deliberately hunting down the corners that still crackle.

Crispy Wonton Strips

Ultra-thin wheat dough strips deep-fried until golden and brittle. A go-to crispy topping: light, airy, and built to add crunch to soups, rice dishes, and stir-fries. If it snaps loudly, you nailed it.

Kam Lu Wantan

Kam Lu Wantan

A bold chifa classic built on contrast. Freshly fried wontons carry chicken, shrimp, roast pork, fruit, and vegetables beneath a glossy tamarind sauce that lands both sweet and tangy. Between the first crunch and the sauce left clinging to the plate, pretending one serving is enough becomes rather difficult.

Chifa-Nikkei Pickled Ginger

Chifa-Nikkei Pickled Ginger

Paper-thin ginger slices quick-pickled in rice vinegar and sugar. They turn translucent, tender yet crisp, with a sweet-tangy bite that refreshes the palate and a clean spicy finish. Served cold, direct, and Chifa-Nikkei in spirit.

Beef with Tausi

Beef with Tausi

A Peruvian chifa classic where tender beef meets the fermented depth of tausi in a dark, glossy sauce. Ginger, garlic, oyster sauce and crisp vegetables support the stir-fry without hiding the meat. Its savory wok-fired intensity makes it dangerously easy to keep stealing bites straight from the serving dish.

Lomo Saltado

Lomo Saltado

A Criollo-Chifa icon built for high heat. Juicy beef, still-crisp vegetables, and a bold soy-and-vinegar sauce arrive with fries and white rice: hearty, glossy, and unmistakable from the first bite.

Acevichado Maki

Acevichado Maki

One of the signature dishes of Peruvian Nikkei cuisine: seasoned-rice uramaki filled with crisp shrimp and avocado, covered with fresh tuna and a creamy, citrusy, gently spicy acevichada sauce. Scallions and togarashi finish the contrast between cool fish, a crisp center, and soft sushi rice.

Peruvian Menestrón

Peruvian Menestrón

A Peruvian soup born from Italian minestrone and transformed into a generous green pot of beef, root vegetables, legumes, and macaroni. Basil, spinach, and cheese give it a thick, unmistakable character that makes stopping at one bowl difficult.

Sweet Min Pao With Frejol Colado

Sweet Min Pao With Frejol Colado

An airy, sweet white dough wrapped around a creamy heart of frejol colado. It is the warm embrace of chifa cuisine, bringing together gentle steaming and the traditional sweetness of Peru’s coast. Softness turned into bread, ready to comfort you.

Lucuma Mochi

Lucuma Mochi

A delicate Japanese-style dough embraces the creaminess of Peruvian lucuma in a silky, elegant bite. This mochi bridges two worlds, bringing rice-based technique together with the earthy sweetness of “Inca gold.” A vibrant and refined Nikkei-style treat.

Soy-Glazed Chicken Gizzards

Soy-Glazed Chicken Gizzards

Tender chicken gizzards finished in a dark soy glaze scented with ginger, garlic, and five-spice. They are simmered first to tame their texture, then hit with high heat until glossy, savory, and browned around the edges. Scallions finish the dish for a clean Peruvian-Chinese profile without an overloaded sauce.

Peruvian Mondonguito a la Italiana

Peruvian Mondonguito a la Italiana

A Lima classic with an Italian-Criollo soul. Tender beef tripe is coated in a tomato, ají panca, mushroom, and Parmesan sauce, while fried potatoes and vegetables give the dish its unmistakable contrast. Rich, savory, and the kind of food whose aroma makes waiting for the table feel unnecessarily difficult.

Chifa Pickled Radish

Chifa Pickled Radish

A classic Chifa pickle: crunchy radish with a sharp sweet-and-sour bite that resets your palate. Thin slices are salted to draw out moisture, then macerated in white vinegar with a touch of ají amarillo. Clean, punchy, and built to balance richer dishes.

Lomo Saltado Sandwich

Lomo Saltado Sandwich

A crusty French roll packed with wok-seared beef and the classic quick toss of red onion and tomato. It’s fast, juicy, and loud-in-the-wok in the best way—pure Peruvian street-food energy in your hands.

Chifa-Style Steamed Fish

Chifa-Style Steamed Fish

Whole fish gently steamed with ginger and scallions, then finished with lightly balanced soy sauce and hot oil that instantly blooms the aromatics. The flesh stays delicate and juicy while the finish delivers the clean, fragrant character of a Peruvian chifa table. Few ingredients, precise technique, and plenty of flavor.

Lomo Saltado Pizza

Lomo Saltado Pizza

A Peruvian fusion that keeps the punch of a proper saltado intact. A golden crust and melted mozzarella meet freshly seared beef, onion, tomato, and yellow chili with that unmistakable flash of soy sauce and vinegar. Slice it as soon as it comes together and the whole idea suddenly makes perfect sense.

Peruvian-Chifa Orange Chicken

Peruvian-Chifa Orange Chicken

Crisp chicken tossed at the last moment in a glossy orange, soy, ginger, and garlic glaze, with a small touch of ají amarillo that brings it into Peru's chifa tradition.

Peruvian Soy Sauce Chicken

Peruvian Soy Sauce Chicken

Browned chicken pieces simmered in a home-style sauce of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, with a touch of oyster sauce and brown sugar to round out the flavor.

A savory classic of Peruvian chifa: crisp chicken cut into pieces and covered with a dark soy, ginger, and oyster sauce.
