It’s a sweet lobster tail served over a bed of mashed potatoes with prawns, scallops, and topped with a vernesa sauce that is rich with a hint of spiciness. This dish is basically as decadent as you can get. The Ceviche was a mixture of fish, octopus and shrimp seasoned with chilli hot pepper cream, lime juice, onions, and cilantro served with sweet potato, corn, and fresh avocado and the Trilogía Exótica- one word: exquisite. For the main courses I chose the Ceviche Erotismo and the Trilogía Exótica- a highly recommended dish by the staff. I mean you can’t have Peruvian food and not try the Ceviche. I went with a cold and warm dish to get the best of both worlds. The Calamari came next, served with a trio of dipping sauces and fried to a perfect crisp.Īfter getting a little taste of what the menu had to offer, I was ready to move on to the main course, well courses. At Candela this version is served with a seasoned mashed potato terrine layered with shrimp and avocado, topped with panko prawns. Since I’m all about getting the authentic experience the Causa de Camarones was the perfect starter since it’s a very unique Peruvian dish typically eaten with different fillings from shrimp, crab, lobster or fish. I went with the Causa de Camarones and the Calamares Fritos ![]() For starters, I recommend getting something from the cold and hot selections. With so many options making it hard to choose from, you can count on the friendly staff to help you make a decision. ![]() The portions are served with sharing in mind, so the best thing to do is get a few items and let everyone get a taste. Like most Peruvian inspired eateries, Candela‘s menu consists of all different kinds of ceviche, tiraditos, salads, rices, meat, seafood and much more, all staying true to the restaurant’s authentic Peruvian roots.
