The Real Estate Boom Continues

And this is why we would no longer be able to afford to buy in Miraflores. Happily, we've discovered that we like Magdalena del Mar even more - and the prices there are about where the Miraflores prices were when we were first looking 2 1/2 years ago!

El Kapallaq

El Kapallaq! Probably still my favorite restaurant in town. Too bad they moved. When we discovered them, they were four blocks from our apartment. Today we went and checked out their new location on the other side of Miraflores. Still the same impeccable service, incredible food, lots of attention from owner/chef Luis Cordero (who remembered us from the old neighborhood and treated us to pisco sours!) The new place is beautiful, has twice as much space as the old place, a separate (small) bar, a totally open kitchen. In short, we totally love the new place. On the other hand, we really miss the old place, with its  old style charm, its intimacy, its feeling that it was your own secret hideaway. We had a wonderful lunch with new friends Carol and Roger, along with the unstoppable Dorothee! Great Saturday afternoon!

Another new project

I've been having fun writing articles on Squidoo. The fun thing is that I can write about anything that enters my mind - kind of like blogging but with a bigger audience! My latest article: Peru - Best Country for Foodies!  I hope you'll check out my articles and tell me what else you'd like to read about. I'm having fun with this.
