Cafe Deli France

Tue quality of the food, the ambiance, and the excellent service are still there. Even though it is not as full as when it was inaugurated, it is a highly recommended destination if you want to feel for 3 hours as if you are in a Parisian bistro.

Cafe Deli France

The addition of Cafe Deli France (Santa Cruz 982, Miraflores) to the gastronomic supply of Lima is extraordinarily good news. It is an invention of Deli France. From the outside, the sign says simply "D" but once inside, one finds a large space, finely decorated with bronze details and french posters from the Belle Epoque. All details have been well thought out and executed, including the illumination and the bar.

The style immediately brings us to Paris, either to a simple Bistro or to a good Bar. The menu offers french delicacies such as Foie Gras and Escargot, but also international dishes. The onion soup was memorable, as well as the Pork medallions. The wine, a 2006 Chateau du Gazin (Fronsac) was a great find. In general, they seem to have the best french wine list in Lima.

The end of the dinner was not as good. The desserts are simple and nothing special. And even through they offer a cheese plate, there is neither Port nor Sauternes to accompmany them. This is a serious mistake. Despite these last details that require urgent attention, the opening of Cafe Deli France is magnificent news and we wish them the best of lucks.

Deli France (Comandante Espinar, Miraflores)

The presence of Deli France in Lima (Comandante Espinar in Miraflores) enhances the living standards of this grey city. The sophistication of its exquisite products elevates the spirit. Attention to detail, service that is attentive and knowledgeable, and the large variety of options in terrines, pates, breads, cheeses, and wines (including Chateauneuf du Pape) replaces the inevitable trip to Paris to satisfy the basic necessities that civilization imposes.
