Crandall's Peruvian Restaurant, for 20 years, has served food that has been constructed around the idea of homemade and gourmet American menu. Although our menu has brought us much success, we wanted to reconstruct our menu by introducing a new culinary concept; being native Peruvians and knowing what Peruvian gastronomy has to offer, my wife and I decided to add in Peruvian cuisine, which we knew very well is all about exquisite taste, variety and ability to incorporate Influences from different time periods and cultures. With the arrival of Spanish conquistadors, Spanish influence was added to the use of these three key ingredients. Peruvian cuisine was further influenced and enriched by migration from China, Japan, Europe, and Africa in the recent centuries. Furthermore, Peru can be split up into three geographic regions: the Coast, Andean Sierra, and Amazon jungle, adding to the variety and diversity of Peru's culinary art.
