Lima: Peru's food revolution - Street Food

- Lima, the capital of Peru, is a sprawling metropolis of about 10 million people.
Known as the "city of kings", it was founded by the Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century and became an important centre of the Spanish empire in South America.
Over generations, people from around the world have settled in the vibrant city, resulting in a mix of cultures and cuisines.
Previously Lima was not much more than a transit point for tourists going to the ancient city of Cusco and the magnificent ruins of Machu Picchu. But the tourism industry has grown and tourists are spending more time and money in Lima's restaurants.
Peru's economy may be booming and the status of the nation's cuisine on the rise, but poverty is still rife. Gloria Villanueva Reyes is one of thousands of women working in Peru's many community kitchens providing the poor with food.
"I am proud that our food is now famous but I feel bad at the same time because there are too many people who don't have the chance to eat it. If it would reach everybody, happiness would be complete. Unfortunately, we only see those recipes on television," she says.
Peru is a country full of contradictions and it is struggling to define its modern self. But with the emergence of cooking schools across the country, many young Peruvians hope to be able to contribute to the new wave of Andean cuisine and create a new gastronomic future for their families and their country.
So are Peru's culinary traditions the key to a better future?
Editor's note: This film was first broadcast on Al Jazeera English in 2008.
I’ve travelled every country in South and Central America and Peru has by far the most refined cuisine and variety and in my experience it’s also the country where you are least likely to have a unsatisfying meal of all the places i’ve aten at on an international basis.
they even make Mexican style tacos Peruvian-ized tacos taste the bomb !!!
@texandrywallprefabricado2491 the food here is A-1,
Lima is the only city that concentrates the largest number of restaurants within the list of the 50 best in the world.
Currently in 2023, in Lima there are 4 restaurants that belong to the list of the best 50 in the world, .
One can come to Lima especially to eat every year and not get bored, the gastronomic offer is endless.
It's 2023 and in Lima
@texandrywallprefabricado2491 Sorry, but in Peru we don't make tacos, we have so much of our own gastronomic offering that no one would venture to make "Peruvian style" tacos or Mexican food.
I only know two Mexican food restaurants and they are average, like fast food, nothing more than that.f you're right, the food here is A-1,

Me gustaría viajar a Peru algún día! Peru es uno de los países hermosos del mundo! ¡un brindis de amistad desde Filipinas!
Salud!
IGUAL...
LA COMIDA PERUANA ES TODO UN ORGASMO PARA TU PALADAR..
Muchas gracias, un saludo desde Lima Perú
Extranjero que viene al Perú, regresa a su país gordito
Eres bienvenido a nuestro grandioso y variado país para que lo DISFRUTES al máximo👍
Al Jazeera, es un gran honor tenerlos en nuestro Perú. Cómo referencia, la cocina peruana nace desde el pueblo, ahora se convertirse en un cocina que está presente en cada lugar del mundo.
Beautiful lots to eat in Peru no one goes hungry. God has giving Peru plenty for everyone.
this makes me want to go to peru 100000x more.
MademoiselleLapin come to Peru and we can make a beautiful family together :-)))
COME TO CHILE , YOU'RE GONNA FIND GOOD LOOKING GUYS LIKE ME. YOU AND ME, CHOCOLATE AND MILK.
Yes if there is one thing we are proud of is the food. We are not as rich as argentina or chile but our food is the best.
only the food? you should read more about the Peruvian history and maybe you start to appreciate more things.
Lima is "just a city"? What?
I AM FROM CHILE, AND I AM FANATIC OF PERUVIAN FOOD, THEIR FOOD, THEIR PURE PISCO AND THEIR PISCO SOUR ARE THE BEST OF THE WORLD. PISCO IS 100% PERUVIAN , BUT WINE IS FROM CHILE.
El vino es de Italia:v buena chileno gracias por tus palabras
Pisco is strong!
Intento de peruano haciéndose pasar por chileno
You are obviously Peruvian is this what you have to do now to get attention
@@kendramendoza8166 they have to recognize themselves if not, noone is going to do it. Pisco is from chile not from perukistan
There is NOTHING like ceviche in this world. Simply Amazing.
It is raw fish salt onion and lime. 🤣
@@diegomartinez6988 YOU JUST DISCOVERED AMERICA! 🤣
I lived in Lima for a year and a half, plus travel to both the jungle and the mountains. I have been to a few different countries and Peru probably has the best food. I know I will never find a potato as good as the ones I ate there every day. I love chewing the coca leaf too, but I worry that there will be drama over it if I try to get ahold of some in the United States.
Amy (: perú is good and you can come when you want
Unfortunately they might arrest if you try.
Coca leaves sadly are illigal in EEUU, becasue when taking a drug test, the test can't recognise if oyu actually toke cocaine or just eate coca leaves.
I dont think thats why theyre illegal lol ^
I especially like the two stories at the end, about the community kitchen and culinary school. Two stories that offer a unique angle on the Peruvian food scene.
Ansiosa x volver al Peru. 😚sobre todo a comer. Janjanjan saludos a Mi Peru desde alemania. Ya pasara la corona 💙💙💙💙
Deseo viajar a Perú uno de estos días. Es un país muy hermoso. 🇵🇪
Bienvenido 🇵🇪👏
hola, yo soy de Lima, Perú. ¿de dónde eres? y qué es lo que más te atrae del Perú ?
Im mexican and ceviche and tacos best thing of the world , peru is so much like mexico with there food we like the natural flavors and seafood a lot .
Yeah I agree, Mexican cuisine is one of my favorites! Also ceviche originates from Peru since the viceroyalty.
The best ceviche is from Peru☼ ☻ !
Perú le gana a mejico ☻
I’m in Peru right now, Peruvian food is nothing like Mexican food
Peruvian food is very different to Mexican. There is no doubt however that the best food of the whole American content would be between Mexico and Peru. For me it's Peru who wins but it's personal choice.
This report was fantastic. What a wonderful reporter. She really worked hard to get such a well rounded story here. I appreciate the effort.
¡Peru glorioso viva!
Added in my Bucket list. "Peru"
THE PERUVIAN FOOD IS DELICIOUS..
IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD...
Viva Peru! Un gran país
gracias por ser transparente y mostrar lo variado que es el Perú reflejado en Lima
Makes me proud to be Peruvian
Great documentary. I have an observation in reference to the music selection. "Chicha" is a modern peruvian style of music and they used it a lot in this video. I would've like to hear some "Criolla" or "Negroide", which are older and more representative of my beautiful country Perú.
i really love chichadelica music. by any chance would you happen to know the name of the song at 15:35 ??? it’s been burning a hole in my brain for awhile now. please help me
BEST VIDEO PERUVIEN FOOD GREAT VARIETY FROM THE SEA THA MOUNTAINS TO THE JUNGLES
Perú es un país maravilloso único en todos los sentidos
amazing and well produced documentary......fascinating range of Peruvian food....thank you
Hermoso país!
La comida peruana no es la mejor de latino América, es la mejor de América; desde Lima-Perú-América.

We have never been in Peru but I look on CZcams all the time ".We just LOVE it Their people look so kind and the food is like a 'Paradise' to be. We love their art and clothing only we so sad "they hurt guinea pigs " so sad.Our pets a 5 guinea pig swe cry we saw how they eat they.

If you are reading this I hope you have a good day. Make sure to keep a positive mindset and keep pushing through any obstacles in your way.
REPORTERA ARGENTINA CONTANDOLE A LOS ARABES SOBRE LA JAMA PERUANA ... COSAS DE LA GLOBALIZACION. Y MUSICA DEL CENTRO DE FONDO.
Ahora que recuerdo, en la parte norte de Argentina aún se habla el idioma quechua, con algunas modificaciones, pero se mantiene la raíz, saludos . ☻
@@guillermoperu80 Cierto, hace poco vi un vídeo en youtube al respecto, hay algunos cambios y se le dice Quichua, en lugar de Quechua. En el mismo Perú existen variantes del Quechua, así que no es algo tan raro :P Saludos
La rica chicha
When the video reaches the part about the restaurant outside of Lima with Andean cuisine, I thought Ohhh cool, I have to look it up and go the next time Im in Peru, so I did and apparently, the place is a dirty mess with lousy service and the owner, Haydee Raymundo is called out by a ton of people claiming she disrespects them and her employees and that they even charge for using the bathrooms. What a shame.
Yes cheap is not always better. You should tried way more respectful restaurants and more expensive.
Peruvian food one the best in the world .
Не обольщайтесь! Это вам так кажется.
BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD
I AGREE, I AM FROM CHILE, AND I AM FANATIC OF PERUVIAN FOOD AND PISCO.
jajajajaj este chileno

Peru 🇵🇪 ❤ 🤍 💙 🧡 🖤 ♥️
Peru's primary source of protein is chicken not guinea pig
I cringed when I heard her say that
Not anymore at least lol
@@firebender1174 it was never, but is a delicius meet as deer, vizcacha, pork, cow, sheep, a lot of fhish, shirms, alpaca. There are a lot of animals who can be prepare in delicius plates
yeah guinea pig isnt cheap at all
CU next year Peru 💝
Did you come to Peru? :D
I got hungry watching this.
grande chacalon ........
b
The back translation on one of the properties of the coca leafs was wrong. The lady said in Spanish that the coca leafs has a regenerating effect to the cells not that reduces the cells
y el marco musical del gran Chacalon y la Nueva Crema...
1:47 that’s the real Lima
jajajaj donde los llevaron que profundo reportaje 😊😊
The Venezuelans must be jealous of you Peruvians I can see prosperity looming in this country.
Spanish did no found Lima, Limay, Rimac , or Rimay was build by the native Peruvians and then Pizarro took over ....
Javier Lope Nope, Lima as a city never existed before Pizarro created it. Natives lived along the Rimac and lurin rivers as farmers but not as a city per se.
it was a mix of ceremonial buildings and big agricultural patches of land, not really a city in and of itself.
Native peruvians before Peru even existed... Isn't it an anachronism ?
great people
Her face after drinking "leche de tigre"... Priceless! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Maca powder comes from Peru
Buen reportaje! Ya me dió hambre :9
🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
So are y’all just not gonna drop this playlist
iam Peruvian
When the host said the cross was to "ward off uncooked meat", I thought she was being facetious, and laughed, then felt kind of bad when I found out it was serious. Wouldn't it be more clear to say "ward off a curse" or "ward off a death in the family"?
la comida Peruanos es uno de los mejores en el mundo
Ginea pig is not Peru's primary source of protein! Where did you get this information from???
The Perú is Wonderful
is Amazing..
the Peruvian Food is Delicious, is the Best in the World..😋
4:17 the lil kid 😂
Teresa Bo you are stunning!

La carne de cuy es la mejor que hay en el mundo es bueno para combatir la anemia
Potato + Spaghetti... oof not a match made in heaven

George MGALOBLISHVILI georgian man, in peru all the things are crazy and chaotic!!!
yo creo que un combinado resume lo que es un peruano.
Peru now is much better than this video
Que tal sound truck
truck
this is dated, and it is an old Aljazeera documentary
that lady dosent know how to chew coca
you typically remove the bitter midrib
We didn't see all of the cultures...
For a short video it's ok. We have a mixture with spanish, african, chinese, japanese, and other cultures :) they didn't mention our amazon cuisine either. Hope you could visit us! :D
Alguien sabe si hay Al Jazeera En español?
Portal de Internet y prensa escrita
Allah who akbar come to Peru habibi.
The sky is not always grey in Lima, just half of the year. The guinea pig is not the primary source of protein in Peru. Who are these journalists... haha
Me drive
12:00 Sendero Luminoso (Shining Path) was the bloodiest terrorist group in Latin America. We Peruvians lived that horrible experience for 20 years and we know what terrorism is, we know the damage it does and how it operates by hiding among the civilian population and sowing terror in them. They don't fool us.
Sendero Luminoso fue el grupo terrorista más sanguinario de Latino América. Los peruanos vivimos esa horrible experiencia por 20 años y sabemos lo que es el terrorismo, sabemos el daño que hace y como opera escondiéndose entre la población civil y sembrando el terror en ellos. A nosotros no nos engañan.
did Peruvians bring the potato to Ireland on their way to build Stonehenge? I guess the also spread all the varieties of dogs as seen by the multitude of various dogs that wander their streets.
Ox Bone there was no potato in Europe before the 1500's. Potato was introduced to Europe by the Europeans explorers that return from the new world. It has been determined that potato originated in Peru, we have more than 3500 varieties of it compared to no more than 10 found in Europe or North America. They have also found potatoes during excavations of ancient tombs, thousands of years old before the potato reached Europe , got it? Oh, and by the way, there was only 1 kind of dog present in Peru, native to this part of the world, what you see on the video are descendants of dogs brought here by Europeans along with cows, horses, pigs rats and disease.....
science is completely lost on you right?
@@faustoruiz6146 In fact, there were a lot of native dogs in South America, but all of them were lost with the introduction of spanish war dogs. It's a very sad story, but nowadays we have the Viringo (Perro sin pelo peruano) and Chiribaya.

About the video. On NEWS-TV, they ALWAYS manage to show the poorest part of the country. Have you ever seen on the news the beautiful parts of the city of India?.. Iran?....Peru, Bolivia...etc?.....NEVER.
No comment
Now Venezuela caused
she eats meat! wow
lo q mas me gusta es q los pitucos no salen en la foto es q no pertenecen al peru son aves de paso jaja.
Yhonatan Ochoa resentido la gente de clase alta SON TAN PERUANOS como tu
Bolognesi, Grau, Quiñones, Ricardo Palma etc etc etc también son pitucos no? Resentido.
Mediocre tramado
lol que no pertenece al Peru es tu nombre
Acomplejado
The potato needs to come back to North America because GMO's have taken all of the nutrition out
Daniel Dulu indeed, food in North America really sucks. Nothing beats Peru's cuisine!.
Peru=Machu picchu, ceviche and pisco sour.
Peru is the best place to eat food then she goes to a chinase restaurant
Que poca capacidad de entendimiento...🤭🤣
Notice how no one is commenting on how one person said to give your children coca, without batting an eye.
She worships that leaf more than people worship cigarettes and coffee.
Cual es la obsesion de esta reportera mostrar solo lo feo de la ciudad ...sabemos k esta es una realidad pero no necesita todo el video al 100 porciente solo mostrar lo feo de lima que desubicada la reportera
@Soili Toyjajsja pero si es argentina la europa de america segun ellos k nivel 😂😂😂😂
I think there is something ironic and disturbing about this episode. An anorexic lady hosting a food and travel show. I can sense her aversion to try the food and be adventurous in trying new food.
Peruvian food is delicious, but I’m not sure it’s healthy. You can see almost everybody in the video is fat with big belly.
We do not have much food education... You know, everything with moderation :)
Our food is very healthy!! The ceviche makes with fresh fish, lemon, etc the most our food is very healthy!!!
Leviticus 11:
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you. 8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you. 9 These
shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and
scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat. 10 And
all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of
all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the
waters, they shall be an abomination unto you: 11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination. 12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.
Isaiah 66:
15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 16 For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many. 17 They
that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind
one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and
the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
haha
Yarad Yisrayl Truly comedic about what you posit in that message regarding your superstition.
That is all. Have a good day.
