Paichẽ


Last night we had dinner at Paichẽ, the food was amazing. Chef Ricardo Zarate and business partner Stephane Bombet have opened Paichẽ, a Peruvian izakaya, in Marina del Rey, CA on April 2013. Their third restaurant, following the successes of sister concepts, celebrated Los Angeles restaurants Picca and Mo-chica, honors the influence of Japanese flavors in Peruvian cuisine and the efforts of Zarate’s mother country toward making indigenous species of fish sustainable with a menu inspired by the Japanese tradition of creative small plates. Paichẽ, named for the prehistoric Amazonian fish which will be prominently featured throughout the menu, represents the nearby ocean—from the seafood-focus of the menu down to the restaurant’s design.
