Kion Peruvian Chinese takes this fusion to new heights, offering a delicious food that combines the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kion&#8217;s interior has the aesthetic of 1950&#8217;s Hong Kong with a modern twist that showcases the Cantonese culture. The upmarket and elegant decor sets the stage for a memorable culinary journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To embark on your culinary adventure at Kion, start with their delectable Dim Sum, bite-sized portions served in steamer baskets or on small plates to share. At Kion, the Dim Sum selection is a true delight for the senses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One standout dish is the &#8216;Buti Kion,&#8217; mini sandwiches made with steamed bread called &#8216;Min Pao&#8217; and filled with succulent roast duck, pork or Chi Jau Kay (crispy chicken). The slight spiciness of meat perfectly balances with the sweetness of the bread and the crunchy texture of the onion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kion Restaurant Main Courses: Traditional and Innovative<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kion Peruvian Chinese takes traditional Peruvian recipes and infuses them with a &#8216;chifa&#8217; touch. One such example is the classic Peruvian &#8216;lomo saltado&#8217; served with Chinese pancakes. The tender beef, stir-fried with ginger, hoisin, oyster, and soy sauce, is accompanied by crunchy vegetables, all to be wrapped in the delicate Chinese pancakes. This fusion of flavors creates a mouthwatering dish that perfectly marries tradition with innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Duck lovers will be in for a treat at Kion. Their Pekin duck is prepared to perfection, with a crispy exterior and melt-in-your-mouth tenderness on the inside. The Ti Pa Kay is another must-try dish that showcases the versatility of ingredients: a dark meat chicken filet, filled with peach, golden Inca berry, pineapple, yellow chili and tamarind sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Kion Experience: Fresh, Local, and No MSG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Kion Peruvian Chinese, they pride themselves on using the best and freshest ingredients available.  Kion does not use MSG (monosodium glutamate).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Price Range<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Entr\u00e9es range from approximately S\/ 37\u201374 (\u2248$10\u201320 USD), while appetizers and dim sum range from about S\/ 22\u201340 (\u2248$6\u201311 USD).

Located near the Plaza de Armas, on the corner of Calle Palacio and Hatunrumiyoc, within view of the famous 12 angle Inca stone, this restaurant offers a sophisticated atmosphere. The menu offers a range of dishes, from seafood to pasta to grilled meats. Try the blue cheese and marinated fig pizza or the goat&#8217;s cheese and roasted tomato creation. The extensive wine selection, featuring South American wines for all budgets, complements the culinary offerings at Cicciolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This restaurant was for years a beloved fixture in the Cusco food scene, known for its Mediterranean influences, exceptional cuisine and warm atmosphere &#8211; which makes it a great place to relax and start <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fertur-travel.com\/blog\/2016\/the-wisdom-and-wisecracks-of-inca-pachacutec\/5953\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">going over some of the famous Cusco sayings<\/a> as you begin exploring this ancient historical region. It has only gotten better with its recent move around the corner on Calle Palacio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you step into Cicciolina, the inviting and cozy ambiance of the colonial building will immediately put you at ease, with wide wooden plank floors and the walls adorned with black and white photos and original colonial-era frescos protected by panes of glass. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cicciolina Restaurant Specializes in Great Tapas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cicciolina prides itself on offering a fusion of flavors that combines local produce with international influences, resulting in a truly remarkable meal. The menu has a variety of options, ranging from traditional Peruvian entr\u00e9es to imported tapas that feel like they were brought straight from the Spanish Basque country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For starters, don&#8217;t miss the causa with guinea pig, a Peruvian dish made with layers of mashed potatoes, avocado, and a filling of tender guinea pig meat. The BBQ scallops in a soy sauce with crispy garlic, ginger, and lime are a true delight for seafood lovers. The salads at Cicciolina are also worth trying, with their fresh and vibrant ingredients that showcase the best of local produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to main courses, Cicciolina offers a range of options that cater to different tastes. The Tagliolini with squid ink and prawns is a favorite among diners, with its rich flavors and perfectly cooked pasta. The beetroot ravioli filled with pesto and mushrooms is a vegetarian delight, while the osobucco in a beer sauce with pumpkin raviolis is a comforting and hearty choice. For those looking to try something unique, the tender fillet of alpaca with 4 pepper sauce is a must-try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Formal Dining and a More Relaxed Bar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cicciolina offers two distinct culinary experiences: the formal restaurant area and the more informal tapas bar area. In the dining room of the restaurant, you can expect impeccable and friendly service, adding to the overall enjoyment of your meal. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that every guest feels welcome and well taken care of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you prefer a more casual setting, the bar at Cicciolina offers a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy your meal at a slower pace. While the service may be slightly slower around the bar, the food remains the same, ensuring a delightful culinary experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Price Range<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cicciolina sits in the premium dining category for Cusco, with main dishes ranging from approximately $25\u201345 USD for dinner.
