It's been 4 years since we last visited Chef Virgilio Martínez' Central Restaurante in Lima, currently #5 on the World's 50 Best and featured on Netflix's Chef's Table. Today, it has transformed into one of the must-visit gastronomic dining destinations of the world. The entire meal takes a diner on a journey through various flavors and ingredients drawn from different altitudes (-10m below sea level to 4100m) in Peru. The tasting menu is a reflection of Martínez and his sister’s research into ingredients in the Andes, the Amazon, and the sea. Overall, a very interesting meal full of flavors we've never experienced or heard of before.
