My favorite restaurant

 SOMBRERO DE PAJA

I am not used to eating out really much, nonetheless, after looking for the best option in terms of food and a chill environment, I found Sombrero de Paja an outstanding place where I can enjoy all what they can offer me.

This restaurant is located in San Juan Bautista district. It is at Km. 4.5 Quiñonez Avenue, it is not far from the Red Square of San Juan, therefore, people living in this district might know about this known restaurant, it is a fantastic option not only for eating, but also for having fun either with friends and family. It is in the corner of the block, its neighbor is a school named “Fe y Alegría”, likewise, it is near another school called “Cristo Redentor”, in front of the restaurant, there is a big known ice-cream factory of Yamboly.

This is not as big as other restaurants, but you can eat there enjoying the comfortable space, that is something I appreciate a lot. The average hour that they open the restaurant is 9 o’clock in the morning and it closes at 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

The food is unique as it takes into account the Amazonian cuisine and other Peruvian dishes. I prefer to go there as I'm keen on eating a mix of dishes from different parts of the country, so, if you haven't tasted the exquisite food, I assure you that you won't splash out, due to the variety of prices according what you  want.

When I have the chance to have a leisurely lunch in that restaurant, I prefer to eat a dish made of chicken and noodles, due to it is my favorite main course.

The appetizers are extremely tasty, because there are many dishes that you can choose, I mean, the variety of appetizers makes this restaurant very engaging, for example, they offer tacacho, fried bananas and other appetizers, these can be an excellent extra food which can be eaten with the main course. From my personal perspective, I rather eat tacacho and stuffed pastry.

Regarding drinks, this restaurant offers the most recognised soft drinks like Inka Kola, Coca Cola and other Peruvian ones, but also, there are options like beer and cocktail, which are mostly drunk as way to be still in touch and talking each other. 

They also have good-smelling desserts such as pancakes, ice-cream, peach and other extras that are up to scratch when you try to taste new things, personally, I rather eat pancakes with jelly.

The last but not least, you have to taste salads, there are many flavorful options to eat up, for example the regional salad, which includes the regional ingredient called Chonta. Moreover, I would rather have a Russian salad as I'm fond of eating potatoes, carrots and beets.
