Eating Guinea Pigs in the Andes Mountains regions of South America is a long and special tradition. They’ve been raised and eaten for thousands of years, and to this day, they remain very popular, and reserved for special meals. The city of Cusco, Peru, and the surrounding areas is one of the best places in Peru to eat guinea pig, known locally as cuy. #Cusco #Peru #PeruvianFood

In this Peruvian cuy tour, we ate three different guinea pigs in a row:

1. San Pedro Market – Right in the heart of Cusco is San Pedro Market, a wonderful Peruvian food market with everything you can imagine. In the morning you’ll find quite a few vendors selling to-go guinea pigs. We had this first, but it wasn’t the best of the day.

2. Tipón, Peru – For our guinea pig number two we drove to Tipón, a town that claims to be a “National Capital of Delicious Baked Guinea Pig.” We headed straight for Cuyeria Monica, where she baked a fresh cuy, bubbled the skin, and served us the full cuy Peruvian food plates. Fresh out of the oven, with the crispy skin, it was incredibly delicious. 35 PEN ($10.61) – Price per cuy

3. Cuyeria Sol Moqueguano – Back to the center of Cusco, we tried a famous restaurant for cuy, Cuyeria Sol Moqueguano, where they have both baked and deep fried. This was an incredible meal, the deep fried version was sensational. The entire plate, including the sausage and rocoto relleno, was outstanding. 42 PEN ($12.73) – Per per cuy

It was a fantastic Peruvian food day in Cusco, and a learning experience.

  1. Mark, you need to go to Arequipa, and explore the "picanterias". Arequipa is a unique city, very different from the rest of Peru in terms of food and architecture. And the food is wow… quite unique! rocoto relleno and pastel de papa is from there, you already it that in Lima, however, there is more more more foods there to try. The San Camilo Market is the best market of Peru, so picturesque, so clean and traditional… you must go to Arequipa man!

  2. I'm sure it's delicious and I have no problem with anyone else eating it, but I don't think I could eat guinea pig, just like I couldn't eat dog, cat or dolphin.

  3. Mark weins videos never gets old i can watch it a million times i learn something new every video keep up the good work you and ying !!! ?

  4. PERU has 3 regions: Coast, Highlands and Jungle (Amazonia)…….Each regions has different kind of food….1.-COAST (Where Lima, the capital city is), is specialized basically in Seafood even though You can find every kind of food. 2.-HIGHLANDS is specialized steaks, beef, CUY and river fish and 3.-JUNGLE or AMAZONIA is specialized in Fruits, Exotic food, rice tamales, herbs and tropical food.

  5. WHAT THE HELL!!!!!?????? IS THAT THE ONLY THING THEY EAT OVER THERE???? ???? DO THEY NOT KNOW HOW TO COOK SOMETHING DIFFERENT??????‍♀️
