What to know: Named for an ancient Incan religious site high in the Andes, Machu Picchu plates authentic Peruvian food. One thing you need to know in advance: This isn't Mexican food. Wash down a stewed lamb shank or sauteed beef with a bottle of Chicha Morada, a purple corn drink made with cinnamon and sugar, or an Inca Cola, which is said to taste like bubble gum. The waitstaff is patient and helpful with newcomers, and the sampler platter is a good way to familiarize yourself with the themes of Peruvian cooking. What to try: Ceviche mixto, $10.50. Fresh fish, shrimp, mussels, octopus and squid marinated with lime juice, served cold. See less
