La Ocopa

Traditional Picantería (l; $$)

La Ocopa Arequipa

Named for a traditional green sauce used to smother many Arequipeñian dishes, Ocopa is a picantería where meals usually last 2-3 hours.

This is an excellent place to pile a plate with three or four different traditional Arequipeñian dishes.

Picanterías serve plenty of spicy (picante) options, which locals wash down with lots of local Arequipeña beer.
