The menu focuses on small and large sharing plates of rustic, Mediterranean "peasant foods," with many dishes cooked in a wood-burning oven and served in cast-iron pots. There are some real winners here: luscious house-marinated olives, chorizo-stuffed dates, thin-and-crispy focaccia with taleggio cheese and truffle oil. The real showstopper is simple roasted chicken thigh panzanella salad, a textural delight of crispy skin, tender meat, chewy panzanella and supple artichoke hearts, all zesty with preserved lemon.
Ay Ay Picante: Peruvian Cuisine Ay Ay Picante: Peruvian Cuisine
Peru, like America, is a melting pot of culture. In addition to indigenous cultures, native Africans, Chinese and Japanese also set down roots. (In fact, Peru has more Chinese restaurants than any other country in Latin America.) Ay Ay Picante features this heritage by rounding out its menu with a selection of Chinese Peruvian-style beef fried rice and soy-sauced noodle dishes. If you're looking for something more traditional, you'll find plenty of ceviche and seafood dishes, along with enormous platters of fried steak served with arroz blanco.
