Pretty delicious Peruvian chicken lunch I enjoyed at Waka-Tay.
Walking in the decor is nice and inviting; catering to casual unpretentious dining.
Started off with a tasty tamale appetizer. It was a densely rich cornmeal filled with dark meat chicken, a boiled egg, and olives. I appreciated the shredded red onion on top which had a nice tart acidity that cut the tamale's richness.
For the entree, I shared with my sister, the whole roasted chicken meal that includes a salad and French fries.
The large portion of roasted chicken was perfectly moist, with a slightly crisp roasted skin, and deliciously seasoned with spices that Peruvian chicken is famous for.
The famous Peruvian Huacatay sauce was tasty too, but I think it was a bit tame for my taste, as I could have used more heat and richness.
The large side House salad and French fries were both very good. House salad was very fresh with crisp lettuce, crunchy carrots, and fresh tomatoes.
French fries were yummy and fried perfectly to my taste with a light golden crisp with no hints of greasy oily flavor that bad fries are notorious for.
Added in a side order of Muduros that were was solid.
My only slight negative for Waka-Tay was that I was originally going to order a Lomo Saltado, but when I asked the waitress if I could substitute the white rice with yellow rice (after asking the kitchen), the waitress told me the substitution could not be accommodated.
I was more than willing to pay a slight upcharge for the yellow rice (as it's listed on the extras section of the menu), but I guess not?
