Mestizo Cocina Peruana, by the bay of Glenelg, is away from the crowds and on a quieter side of the coastal suburb. It also is a showcase for Peruvian cuisine - diverse with influences from such countries as Spain, Italy, German, China, Japan and West Africa. The tamalitos verdes is a stand out. A steamed parcel of slow cooked pork, corn and coriander is wrapped in a corn husk and accompanied with salsa criolla. The steamed corn is like a soft dough (almost like polenta), sweet and subtle in flavor and smooth in texture, while the filling of slow cooked pork melts away with each bite. The vibrant salsa criolla adds a sharp punch and crunch to each mouthful and balances the bite, complementing the flavors and textures. Delicious!
