Clay Oven Guinea Pig: Ancestral Flavor from the Heart of the Andes

We invite you to experience one of the most emblematic dishes of Peruvian highland cuisine, prepared with the care and authenticity it deserves. Our Clay Oven Guinea Pig, priced at S/.90.00, is crafted from the finest cuy sourced from trusted local farmers, raised naturally at high altitudes for optimal flavor and tenderness. In the Andes, this dish is more than a meal—it is a celebration of tradition, family, and heritage.

The cuy is marinated with a blend of fine Andean herbs, garlic, and spices, allowing the flavors to penetrate deep into the meat. It is then slow-roasted in our clay oven, a method that locks in its natural juices while giving the skin a golden crispness and a distinct smoky aroma. The clay oven imparts a flavor that cannot be replicated—earthy, rustic, and deeply tied to the land. Served with grilled seasonal vegetables and native Andean potatoes, this dish offers a balance of textures and flavors: the crisp exterior of the cuy, the succulent meat within, the sweetness of the vegetables, and the hearty comfort of the potatoes. It is a culinary journey to the highlands, where every bite connects you to centuries of tradition.
