One of the first things I do whenever I travel abroad is head to a local food market. In Lima, Vivanda is sort of a Peruvian 24 hour Stop N Shop. Just a few blocks from our hotel in Miraflores, Vivanda is the neigborhood place to go for super fresh fish, meats, produce, speciality items, cheeses, "to go" meals, wines and spirits. Though, I have to say, nothing beats the sweet, ripe mangos, grapes, and bananas we got off a local stand a block down from this spiffy supermarket. Nice to see old and new existing nearly side by side!
