Philadelphia: Chifa (December 2010)

Celebrating the unique melding of cultures and cuisines, Chifa presents guests with a truly one-of-a-kind dining experience that showcases a Peruvian/Cantonese fusion menu. In the 19th century, with the presence of a Chinese community quickly growing in Peru, both cultures benefited from a sharing of culinary technique and
history. The result is a deliciously vibrant fusion cuisine that showcases South American cooking techniques and ingredients, complemented by intricate Asian flavor profiles and texture combinations. Dishes like the Chaufa – made with stir fried rice, chorizo, mango, edamame, and scallops – illustrate this tasty union of cultures, and prove that food fusion is a beautiful thing.
