Govinda's - Restaurant Cusco - Peru

Govinda’s has what is most likely the healthiest food in all of Cusco. Managed by local affiliates of Hare Krishna, and with a slant towards Indian-style cooking, the all-vegetarian, heavy on soy menu has items such as "apana de cusqueño"-soy steak with fried bananas, cheese and rice-or "palta rellena"-avocado stuffed with vegetables and yogurt sauce. Portraits of traditional Hindu religious figures, most notably Krishna, are prominently featured.
