Perú
1 day activity
Students explore Peruvian cuisine.
• Please download the companion worksheet which
includes websites.
Brujas
de cachiche, El señorio de sulco,
La marea, El
mordisco
These four Peruvian restaurants are colorful
websites with a variety of menu information and pictures.
They serve as the basis for the above exploratory activity which builds
to an in class restaurant skit. (These sites are
used in the above activity.)
Caballo Bayo
This restaurant out of Mexico is quite flashy with rich content. The
site has changed somewhat, and prices are less obvious.
Solo
Empanadas
This very Flashy site out of Argentina is interesting on many levels. It's
eye-catching with lots of features for students to explore, including specials,
menu items and a store locator - not to mention a Revolutionary pricing
guarantee. (Note: The Ecuadoran site has more English sprinkled in it.)
Los Cochinitos (Mexico)
This website may require a little patience and a Refresh or two. An unsurprising menu given the name. New Flash descriptions are almost too
interactive. The Java menu is a bit irritating but the graphics and the taco
history are pretty entertaining. (Read on for La Etiqueta del Taco). No
price information.
Restaurante Arroyo
While there are no prices at this website, the other content is still very good.
The site features an illustrated menu, photo gallery and virtual tours.
Worth a look.
