Chifa is a culinary term for Peruvian-Chinese food. A tradition that originates itself from Puru when the wave of Chinese immigrants came to Puru in the late 1800s.The Chinese Cantonese elements fused ingredients with traditional Creole Limean food and thus created dishes such as the Lomo Saltado. The tenderloin beef does not need to be marinated so this delightful dish is cooked up in no time and it has the best tastes ever as the two traditions combine cooking styles and flavors.
