The Plano restaurant is worth seeking out for a welcoming introduction to the varied cuisine of Peru. Our city does not conceal its virtues. Dallas is bumptious, boastful and shiny -- and so is much of its dining scene.

It’s been too long since I visited Lima Taverna but it’s one of the most interesting, creative and one-of-a-kind restaurants in Plano. It’s hard to find over by Collin Creek Mall, but it’s more than worth the journey for true Peruvian food, no corners cut. Leche De Tigre, Anticuchos de Pollos, Lomo Saltado—you can’t go wrong. There’s even a brunch menu.
