Aji Limo Peruvian Crusine
đAji Limo Peruvian Cuisine We stumbled upon this hidden gem on our last day in Tampa, and let me tell youârestaurants tucked away in residential neighborhoods are where the real magic happens! The ingredients are fresh, the flavors are wildly unique, and as someone whoâd never tried Peruvian food before? I was blown away. Trust me, you need to add this to your list ASAP! đ Arroz Con Mariscos Letâs start with the star of the showâthe seafood rice that graced our cover photo. Itâs nothing like the Spanish paella Iâve had before. This one has a subtle kick of ginger, but donât panicâitâs not that overpowering, zingy kind. Instead, itâs warm, earthy, and weirdly addictive! As someone who usually avoids ginger like the plague, I was shocked by how much I loved itâtotal game-changer. And the seafood? Chefâs kiss đŠđŠȘ Thereâs so much of it, and itâs so fresh it tastes like it was plucked from the ocean that morning. Pure perfection. đ Pulpo A La Parrila Grilled octopus legs đ that hit exactly where it matters. Tender, slightly charred on the edges, and so Q itâs like a party in your mouth. The seasoning is spot-onânot a hint of saltiness overload, just a balanced mix that lets the octopus shine. And the fried pine nuts on the side? They add this crunchy, nutty contrast that ties everything together. Obsessed doesnât even cover it đ đ Tallarin Verde Steak with green sauce pasta đâokay, letâs talk about the steak here. When I ordered this, I pictured a few slices on top. Nope. They brought out a whole, juicy steak plopped right on the pasta. The portion is so huge, we were stuffed halfway through! The pesto sauce is (rich) and herbaceous, with that bright, fresh flavor that green sauce lovers crave. If youâre a pesto fanatic like me, do yourself a favor and order thisâyou wonât regret it. đ We also got Yuca fries and a sapote cake as sides, and both were solid đ The yuca fries are crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, and the cake has this sweet, creamy texture thatâs the perfect end to a heavy meal. What I love most about this place is how familiar yet surprising everything feels. The dishes look like things youâve seen before, but one bite in? Your taste buds do a double-take. Itâs bold, itâs creative, and itâs so satisfying. Whether youâre visiting Tampa or live nearby, do yourself a favor and make the trip. This is the kind of restaurant that makes you wish you lived down the streetâso good, weâre already planning our return. Go, go, go! ^_^ #Patan#Finefood#Treasurerestaurantsharing
