La Casa de los Paceños

Frommer's Review

This charming restaurant is housed on the second floor of an old colonial building, and it doesn't look as if much has changed in this dining room since colonial times. Traditional Bolivian food is the specialty here. For example, you can order ají de lengua (cow's tongue in a chile sauce) or, if you're feeling adventurous, picante surtido, which consists of sajta (chicken in a chile sauce), saice (chopped meat in a chile sauce), ranga (cow's stomach), fritanga (pork), and charquekán. More timid eaters should opt for the pollo dorado (chicken grilled in olive oil). If you're looking for Bolivian food in a livelier atmosphere, you should head to the newer La Casa de los Paceños in the Zona Sur (Av. Fuerza Naval 275, between 18th and 19th sts; tel. 0102/2794-629), where there is outdoor seating and live music on the weekends. A taxi from the center should cost no more than Bs30 ($3.80/£1.90).
