Just a few blocks away from the beautiful Plaza de Armas is a colonial building that hosts the iconic Cicciolina. This renowned place blends the best Andean ingredients and techniques with classic Mediterranean recipes. Visit their tapas bar to get a bit of everything and then transition to the salon for a proper meal... legend says the gnocchi with Andean cheese are other-worldly. We suggest making prior reservations, yes plural. You will certainly be back. 

Cusco’s nights are chilly and that is why we think a warm comforting dinner (with artisanal beer on the side) is the way to go. La Bodega 138 has a homey feel and even better wood-fired pizzas. Visit this popular spot to start your night out on the town. Commence from slice to slice and end up hopping from bar to bar.
