Although
el Aguajal might not be the most glamorous place ever, the ceviche -a technique to cook raw food marinating it in citrus juices- I tried has been one of the tastiest one I’ve ever had. My host also gave me to try traditional Peruvian liquor, 7 Raices, made of a blend of seven traditional plants from the Amazon rainforest which according to the rumours has aphrodisiac powers. Would recommend this place for some food, specially the traditional Amazon menu.
Then in the night we went to
Mercado, a bar/restaurant located in a convenient corner of Stoke Newington Church Street; it was a good finding not only because of the general atmosphere, nice, friendly people, but also because I’m getting tired of the same sort of cliché places in London. The only drawback is getting served; bartenders cannot cope with the crowd therefore it takes quite a while being notice -even though I knew a couple of them. Will wait until the smoking ban starts but definitely come back soon!
