Artidoro Rodríguez Café - Tarata 285 — Restaurant in Lima Metropolitan Area

He even dropped by my table to chat and share his deep love for coffee.

The service was absolutely top-notch, with Ghoty, one of the waitstaff, standing out for her incredible attentiveness and warm demeanor.

They offer coffee of the day, it was a Cusco day today but I wanted to try the one from another origin. I wish I could do the degustation before going for the full...
