Lima's restaurant scene is the engine of modern Peruvian cooking, drawing on coastal fish, Andean produce and the Chinese and Japanese kitchens long woven into the city. Central and Kjolle share an address on Av Pedro de Osma in Barranco, while Astrid y Gaston and Cosme work the fine-dining end in San Isidro and Mayta and Rafael in Miraflores. The criollo and Chifa traditions hold their ground too, from Isolina in Barranco to Wa Lok and Salon Capon in Barrio Chino and El Bolivariano in Pueblo Libre.
