Crandalls Peruvian Bistro - Authentic Peruvian Food

Peruvian cuisine is primarily a combination of Inca cuisine and that of the Spanish conquistadors that arrived in Peru around the 16th century. The staple of ingredients of the indigenous Peruvians (maize, potatoes, and beans) combined with core food of Spanish cuisine (rice, wheat and meat) create the most fundamental part of Peruvian food and a basis for other culinary influences later on.
