Chez Maggy

Frommer's Review

This bustling little joint, which has been around for over 25 years and spawned several branches in Cusco and other parts of Peru, has a bit of everything, from trout and alpaca to homemade pastas to Mexican food, but most people jam their way in for the freshly baked pizzas made in a traditional wood-burning brick oven. They're some of the best in Cusco (even though every other restaurant in Cusco seems to be a pizzeria). Chez Maggy is usually packed in the evenings, and there's often live Andina music when roaming street musicians pop in to entertain diners. The restaurant is a long corridor with shared bench tables full of gringos -- a good way to meet other travelers because you'll be jockeying for elbow space with them. Incredibly, three other locations are along Procuradores, better known as Gringo Alley. If you want a pizza on the terrace of your hostal, Chez Maggy will deliver for free.
