Vegetarian
Trip Ideas
Miraflores’s best vegetarian restaurant is Govinda (Schell 634, tel. 01/444-2871, 10:30 a.m.–8 p.m. Mon.–Sat., 11 a.m.–4:30 p.m. Sun., US$4). The creative dishes of this Hare Krishna–operated restaurant include pad thai, Asian tofu salad, and lomo saltado with soy meat.
When you walk through a health food store to get to the restaurant, you know lunch will be balanced and nutritious. Madre Natura (Chiclayo 815, tel. 01/445-2522, 8 a.m.–9 p.m. Mon.–Sat., US$6) is all that, and well priced. Sit down for a soy-based hamburger, and leave with wheat bread in hand.
