Rosario's Peruvian Restaurant May 15, 2019
I have never had Peruvian food but I had a tip that this place
was good and thought since we were in Longmont it was the perfect time to try
Peruvian food for the first time.
I didn’t really know
what I was getting myself into or even what to order, but luckily they have
different Peruvian Tour plates with two or three different items on them. So I
ordered tour plate number six and mom and dad both got plate number five. Plate
number six had a Papa Rellena which was a potato stuffed and fried, Aji de
Gallina which was a chicken dish and Tallarin Saltado which was a beef noodle
dish. Tour plate number five had Lomo Saltado which was a beef dish. This plate
also had the same Tallarin Saltado beef and noodle dish I had. Each plate was 16.99.
The Papa Rellena was really good. It was basically a really
good baked potato stuffed with a meat mixture that included a few peas, carrots
and hardboiled egg pieces. Then was battered and fried making it a little crispy
around the outside.
The Aji de Gallina was a chicken dish with a creamy Aji
yellow pepper sauce and topped with a hardboiled egg slice and an olive. I
thought this was excellent
The Tallarin Saltado was a stir fried beef noodle dish that
resembled and tasted kind a like lo mein but also had tomatoes.
The Lomo Saltado was stirfried beef with onions and french
fries.
Also included on the plate was some sort of green sauce that
was spicy but very tasty and went well with everything.
The food here was great and I couldn’t tell if the Aji de
Gallina or the Papa Rellena was my favorite but my whole meal was excellent.
This was a fun and tasty adventure. I’m really glad I was able
to try out Peruvian food and can’t wait for more!
