Take me Higher
It’s the exhilarating taste of adventure, of the unusual. It’s the mind-blowing, immaculately well-researched exploration of Peru’s biodiversity. The brilliant and charming couple, Virgilio Martinez and Pia Leone take us on a unique adventure through all the vegetal and mater elevations. Through our taste buds, we hike up thousands of feet in the Andes, dive in as many feet below sea level and journey through the dark, damp mysterious Amazon rain forest too. It’s my first time ever taste of huarango cactus, sweet potato leaf, Ollucachinco onion field mustard, piranha fish heads and more. Brilliantly paired and innovatively presented; it’s an explosion of rare textures and rarer flavours.
