LIMA DAY 12: Farewell Octopus

Monday, May 18

Last day. It's never happy. Even with Octopus and Ice Cream.

Alex and Cesar offered to meet me for my Farewell Lunch. They let me pick, so I announced that we would be eating at Los Calamares, on the Barranco/Surco/Miraflores border.

We started with an order of Conchitas a la Parmesean (Scallops Parmesean).

Alex and I are big Octopus fans; I had a Tacu Tacu with Grilled Octopus, and Alex just had a plate for Grilled Octopus (hold the Tacu Tacu).



They do a good job on their Octopus here. I was happy.

Cesar had an order of Hueveras. He loves those things.


For the Big Finish, we also shared an order of their Fried Calamari.

This isn't Fried like at every other place on the planet, but sliced and then sauteed with Onions. I don't know if I like it because it is different, or it is good, but I like it.

Then we had our tearful farewell (tearful for me, at least). I will spare you the details.

At the airport, I had a Pastel de Acelga and a Chicken/Egg/Cheese/Something Else Sandwich.


They were, well, Food.

For my final, final Farewell, I went to 4D for my Reward for actually going to the airport and getting on the airplane: Gelato.

I bought a Diet Sprite to go with it because 1) For some strange reason, bottles of Soda from the vending machines were less than a dollar. AT THE AIRPORT and 2) Diet Soda: Offsets the Gelato. It turns out that Sprite Zero isn't very good.

On the plane, Spirit was more than happy to sell me a bag of Combos.

That was it for the day, and for the trip. Here's my steps.
