Dave’s Liked Places

Dave: They're generous with the cinnamon on your cappuccino

Dave: Definitely worth seeing before you trek out to Machu Picchu. The English plaques are about a tenth the size of the Spanish ones, though, so bring your reading glasses…

Dave: Incredible, the best food in Cusco. If you're thinking of getting the ceviche, consider the tiradito instead — truly special. The crispy piglet is also out of this world.

Dave: Take a few minutes to tour the chapel. Breathtaking.

Dave: Obviously get a pisco sour. And if you don't start your meal with either a ceviche or the octopus, you might as well just leave Peru

Dave: The causa with smoked trout is superb

Dave: Tortoises are not turtles!

Dave: If you're afraid you won't be able to find an overpriced gift shop, fear not! There's at least two to choose from.

Dave: If you tell the salespeople what adventure you're going on and when you're going, they'll know exactly how to outfit you

Dave: Super weird, but you can't take food from one of the mini restaurants and eat it in one of the other mini restaurants. So figure out where and what you would most like to eat.

Dave: The beef spare ribs on sugar cane skewers are pretty dope

Dave: PSA: any drinks you get at the bar outside DONT'T count toward your two-dink minimum

Dave: Get a hat fulla booze

Dave: Sneak in the back door for takeout

Dave: Lagavulin but conspicuously no Heineken

Dave: Great seviche. Even the mild seasoning has quite a kick

Dave: If you're just two people, try to sit at the bar. Awesome experience

Dave: Pretend you're at a much fancier, tastier Chipotle

Dave: Great arugula salad

Dave: Pulled pork is bomb, but get the trash rib teasers if they're available.

Dave: I haven't seen it on the menu in a while, but the flatiron steak was superb. Either way, get yourself some pâté.

Dave: I still have dreams about the Scottish langoustines
