Finding new hidden gem restaurants in the area is one of my absolute favorite things to do. If you look at my monthly credit card statements, 90% of the charges are for food. I'm a total foodie slash wino and proud of it!
Each weekend night, between shows, Csaba (a fellow foodie) and I seek out any and all non-chain restaurants we can to find some unique flavors scattered throughout Limaland.
Tonight we tried Keith's Landeck Tavern, famous for their fried chicken. I can speak for both of us when I say we LOVED it. The entire menu was dotted with surprises such as sweet potato fries, toasted ravioli, fabulous burger combinations, and of course, fried chicken. I didn't dabble tonight for obvious reasons, but I did check out the beers on tap as well, which consisted of Shock Top among other fan favorites.
We shared the a bowl of sirloin chili, fried chicken, a diablo burger and sweet potato fries. All recommended. It's for this reason that it tops my favorite restaurants of the area.
Here's what my top 5 look like (so far):
1. Keith's Landeck Tavern
2. LuLu's Diner
3. Bankok Bay
4. Hunan Gardens Chinese Restaurant
5. Las Palmas Restaurant
Have you tried Thai Jasmine in Lima? (It's kind of dumpy on the outside, but the food will surprise you!) I recommend the spring rolls for starters and the sesame noodles with chicken or the red curry. Top it off with some thai ice tea. Yum!
