Canchita Peruvian Cuisine

Singapore’s de facto Latin American chef power couple, Daniel and Tamara Chavez, keeps the menu at Canchita Peruvian Cuisine simple with honest-to-goodness Peruvian flair. Dishes here are packed with bold, distinct flavours that masterfully blend the various culinary influences of the South American nation. Their ceviches remain one of the main reasons to visit, and their rightfully named Ceviche Clásico strikes a remarkable balance between the piquant Tiger’s Milk, sweet potato purée and fresh fish. Seafood continues to impress with Canchita’s octopus a la brasa. Think meltingly tender grilled octopus, paired with a moreish parrillera sauce and parsley mayo that beg to be mopped up with every bite. For those looking for a more substantial main, do save some space for the Peruvian-Cantonese lomo saltado, a decadent combination of stir-fried wagyu beef tenderloin and crisp, thick cut chips.
