A family friend from Peru was in town visiting, so we decided to take her to El Fogon to see how Toronto's Peruvian cuisine stacked up against authentic Peruvian cuisine. Our visiting friend was amazed by how tasty the dishes were and even walked into the kitchen to compliment the chef.
We ordered the grilled calamari, ceviche, lomo saltado, and some other seafood fried rice (and of course, we HAD to get some Inca Kola). Everything was great, and the portions are pretty big. I recommend trying the chicha which is a chilled blue corn and pineapple drink infused with cinnamon.
The only issue I have with this place is that it takes a while for the food to arrive...but I guess that isn't too bad considering how yummy the food is when it gets to the table.
