An expert in the preparation of sole ceviche and dishes with octopus, the great Peruvian chef Javier Wong is an eminence in the preparation of this delicious seafood. This chef has created himself, as he is self-taught. Many visitors, lovers of good cuisine, reserve a table at his place just to be personally served by him. Only in Peru, the main authorities and recognized figures have visited his restaurant.
Chez Wong’s restaurant is one of those places where you can eat well, at a good price and in a home environment where people go by tradition and because the food is very good, in other words, and as it is said in Peru, it is a “huarique” that does not have a sign to identify it. The restaurant is his own house, the dining room of his house to be more specific. Making a reservation with him is very necessary since he only has 10 tables to attend to “their guests” in a personalized way.
His restaurant is very particular because it does not have a menu, Chez Wong will prepare the dish that he deems convenient for you to know, he will only ask you if you want a cold or a hot dish and according to your choice he will start to work as he feels inspired. You will be able to see how he prepares his dishes with great skill, everything is in view of the diners.
Despite being a self-taught person, he has been concerned that the world knows the greatness of Peruvian marine cuisine, therefore, in 2011 he wrote a book where he talks about his history, philosophy of life and gives us his best recipes. He is governed only by his inspiration, cooking with pure heart, being thus recognized as the best cebichero in the world, among other reasons for the speed with which he prepares his dishes, this distinction was thanks to the English newspaper “The Guardian”, Chez Wong has also received other awards for his excellent cuisine.
