Tunki is the name of the official bird of Peru, ideal name to represent the fusion of Mexican and Peruvian cuisine that we find on the menu. The dishes have influences from areas of the coast, the jungle and the highlands mixing different but authentic flavors of both cultures. Here we find exclusive and innovative cocktails, authentic Peruvian dishes and stunning views of this city, recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Handshake Speakeasy

Handshake Speakeasy has a concept that pays homage to the Mexican bar community of the resistance era in an intimate and genuine atmosphere. His clients are a new generation of lovers of both classic and avant-garde mixology. That’s why they put their own spin on certain recipes: add buttered mushrooms to an Old Fashioned or add mole and sesame to a Michter’s Manhattan.
