MAYTA Restaurant with chef Jaime Pesaque - talking all things PERU & the BEST Arroz con Pato!

On this episode of Eating with Andy, I’m joined by chef Jaime Pesaque from Mayta Restaurant. Voted as one of THE BEST restaurants in Latin America as per Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurants list https://www.theworlds50best.com/latin... I will be talking all things Peru and even going into their kitchen to see how their famous Arroz con Pato is made! More on Mayta: Meaning ‘noble land’ in the native Aymara language, Mayta is a personal and contemporary interpretation of Peruvian cuisine by world-famous chef and restaurateur Jaime Pesaque. He makes full use of Peru’s plentiful larder of unique ingredients, cooked with flair and using cutting-edge techniques (think foams, emulsions and reductions) without forgetting the country’s heritage. Mayta is also an award-winning pisco bar so expect a quality selection of the spirit from a variety of distilleries and an innovative range of cocktails. More on Jaime Pesaque: Jaime has become a global ambassador for Peruvian cuisine after opening restaurants in Milan, Oslo, Miami, New York, Dubai and Hong Kong. He honed his craft in some of the world's most best kitchens, including El Celler de Can Roca (twice The World's Best Restaurant and now in the Best of the Best hall of fame) before returning to his home country of Peru. Matya is the first venue he's opened solo, and gained a spot in Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants 2019 list for its inventive use of local ingredients and flavours, married with accomplished technique.
