Farren'S Express

Pje. de la Catedral 102
Cercado De Arequipa

Farren'S Express in Arequipa offers a picturesque location in the historic city center. The restaurant's ambiance, nestled in a charming alley in the heart of Arequipa, undeniably adds to its appeal. 

Having lunch in the Farren’s express, in the restaurant alley.

However, the elevated prices, while seemingly justified by the location, might leave diners expecting more in terms of culinary creativity and value.

Farren’s Express’ high prices

A tourist trap - our most expensive lunch in the city.

The very first beer in Peru - Pilsen! There was no other option in mind.

Piccola Pizzeria

Calle Pte. Bolognesi 116
Arequipa

Inside this pizzeria, the stylistic interior with a wall of grunge pictures adds a slice of edgy flair to the dining experience. It's like having dinner in a gallery for pizza rebels – where every bite feels like a rebellious work of art!

Our waiter was very nice. Before ordering, we asked him ,,Do you speak English?" ,,Yes, a moment." and in two minutes he returned with the translator open on the phone. But the whole order went through without complications. We went here after the first restaurant when we promised us to don't waste money and we confirmed the promise with a 1+1 pizza offer.

Looking at this detailed picture of cheese pizza is like a virtual game of 'Find the Cheese,' and spoiler alert: cheese wins every time!

For pizza lovers be prepared, they use cheese instead of tomato sauce. Heh. But the coffee was great, we got coffee extract separately from the hot water and we could decide about the intensity ourself.

Two pizzas on the table? It's not a dilemma; it's dinner-lemma – which one to attack first! Let the great pizza showdown begin!

Coffee was terrible. One would thing that South American coffee should be amazing thing. But not here. At least not in Ima Sumac. There are for sure better coffee with a beautiful view in square Plaza de Armas.

The view from this spot was a delightful frame for our drink
