'Queuing is for patsies'

My friend, the photographer Jacob Silberberg, was hired by The Financial Times in May to illustrate a story on Peruvian cuisine, the country's "rich gastronomic legacy" and its "growing popularity." He generously offered to let me exhibit some of his photographs on Pipón.










UPDATE: I just came across yet another piece about tasty Peruvian eats, this one from the BBC.

"The Peruvian Amazon is sparsely populated but a whole new world of flora and fauna," the BBC reports. "You can find caiman (a type of crocodile) on the menu here and an enormous freshwater fish, the paiche. Plaintains, peccaries (a type of wild pig) and dozens of unusual fruits make up the cuisine."
