Food Called Nikkei

Discovery requires exploration.

Vegetarian Encounter Nikkei. A Japanese-Peruvian culinary experience.

Two sides of an ocean blend seamlessly into one exquisite culinary experience. Japanese-Peruvian cuisine lives here. In the late 19th century Japan’s diaspora combined Peruvian ingredients with Japanese techniques to produce a style of food called Nikkei. That heritage is embodied in Clay. E O S P I Q U Nibbles

Inspired by clay.

The open kitchen steeps the room with favour while charged senses take in the atmosphere. Experience, knowledge, care. Although over one hundred years old, Nikkei is still unfamiliar to many, and it is our privilege and responsibility to bring you its exciting and distinct favours. Take it in, together.

The experience.

Rich, earthbound Peruvian tones engage with intricate, ornate Japanese patterning. The eyes explore. Our name, drawn from clay food pots in Peruvian fres, inspires the main dining area while the bar captures gratifed, after-meal moods, as the fames die and ash nourishes the soil. The palate settles.
