NAZKA brought Peruvian cuisine to the Netherlands. People took notice.
Now we're entering a new chapter. We call it Cocina Mestiza.
Peruvian food has always been shaped by mixture — Chinese, Japanese, African, Spanish, Italian, each wave adding its flavors to what came before.
That mixing never stopped, not in Peru, not here in Amsterdam. Colliding cultures exchange more than ideas — they exchange DNA. In Latin America, we see this everywhere. We call it mestizaje. Once a source of shame. Now a source of pride.
At NAZKA, with our Indian-Peruvian chef and our multinational team, our food expresses that layered identity more than ever.
Cocina Mestiza it is — and multicultural Amsterdam is just the right place for it.
