Frommer's Review

Though the name might seem a bit misleading, causing one to conjure a globetrotter's bohemian hangout, this is in fact one of Cusco's most stylish and elegant restaurants Housed in a modern, minimalist glass and steel box with few adornments other than views of the handsome colonial patio it sits in the middle of -- Casa Cabera, now the beautifully designed Museo de Arte Precolombino -- it places its focus squarely on the food, which is elegantly prepared and presented. Standouts include the sesame-crusted tuna and penne rigate in pisco cream sauce. For diners in the mood for a taste of creative Andean cuisine, the guinea pig confit with rocoto peppers is a daring dish. The wine list is one of the city's finest. As a bonus, the museum is open until 10pm, making it possible to make a dinner and pre-Columbian date of the evening.
