The area in the Chincha province of Peru is the heart of Afro-Peruvian culture. Before the Incas, the Chinchas were a fierce, warrior-like tribe. They believed they were descendants of the jaguar, hence the name ‘chincha’ (derived from the word for jaguar). Later the Incas arrived and overtook the Chinchas. And then the Spanish conquistadors came along with Africans. The culture and cuisine is said to be a fusion of all these influences. A dinner fundraiser for BLM PDX. All dishes are vegan.
