pardosYou can ask any Peruvian about Pardo’s Chicken, and I assure you will get an expression of excitement on their face right away! It is one of the well-known local restaurants in Peru, particularly in the capital city Lima, where millions of people gather with friends and family to get a rottiserie chicken, french fries, wonderful steamed and fresh salads, Peruvian-style BBQ, Peruvian soda called Inca Kola, and other dishes and flavors of Peru.

Well, Pardo’s Chicken has just opened a new location in Miami, FL!!!!! 

If you are not familiar with Pardo’s Chicken, check out their website from Peru available in English and you can check out their menu!

The exact address is 2312 Ponce De Leon Blvd, Coral Gables, FL 33146, right in the heart of Coral Gables.

TIP: If you have time to kill while in the Miami International Airport, the restaurant is just 20-30 minutes away driving via all LeJeune Rd.

Yay! Can’t wait to get that yummi chicken!!!

leave a comment »

iron_maidenIron Maiden’s lead singer Bruce Dickinson and his crew announced they are planning to visit Macchu Pichu around the time of their concert in Lima on March 26, as El Comercio newspaper reports.

As mentioned in my earlier post, there is great expectation for this concert. More than 40,000 people are expected to attend the show. Around 6,000 tickets were sold just on day one. As of date, nearly 12,000 tickets have been sold.

Tickets are available for sale online (it’s in Spanish) by clicking here.

Looks like a concert to definitely check out if you are planning to be in Lima late March.
