Country cooking · Quingeo, Cuenca

Restaurant

Country flavors, family recipes and a table with a view of the Andes. Come hungry and stay a while.

Our kitchen

Food that tastes of the countryside — for a reason.

The heart of our cooking comes from the farm: we raise it, plant it and harvest it ourselves.

Our cuy is raised on the farm with fresh grass. The broth is made with our own free-range hens. Potatoes, hominy and vegetables come from our garden, 2,800 meters up. That is why our traditional dishes taste just like grandma used to make.

In the mood for something different? We also serve Filet Mignon, Cordon Bleu, seafood, pasta and a kids menu. At La Travesía there is something delicious for everyone.
