Best Sushi of My Life! When we went to Chikara, it was because of a recommendation of a girl I met in a cafe. The place looked great online but I didnāt expect to have such an outstanding experience! It was definitely the best Sushi in my whole life and Inti and Derlis were just the loveliest hosts on top! We went there as a bigger group of 8 people and it was wonderful to share all the different Makis and Sashimis, Sake and Tea. Being a chef I especially enjoyed the open kitchen concept where i could watch Derlis prepare all the delicacies. What I really noticed that at every part of the culinary experience they work with the highest quality ingredients. Especially in contrast to other good Sushi Restaurants, you could tell they always go one step further always choosing the better sushi rice, the more expensive and artisanal soy sauce, the better Nori Leaf, and even the Sake was also the best Sake I ever had. I recommend this place to every person I meet on my journey that is going to Cusco because I can really recommend this place by heart! Thanks so much Inti and Derlis for your kind...

They expertly combine Peruvian flavors with sushi techniques. The mango roll and acevichado rolls were also scrumptious. Donāt skip a remarkable...
