The parrilla (charcoal grill) masters here rustle up some of the best barbecues in the Peruvian Amazon using the staple ingredients of cecina (smoked pork), and doncella (a type of freshwater fish), among others. The tilapia, steam-cooked in a banana leaf with sides of fried plantain and avocado salad, is sensational. Service is attentive and the atmosphere quietly refined.
