La Despensa

Arequipa


Herby focaccia, delicious brownies, chocolate truffles, handmade pasta, wine and rustic real baguettes filled with arugula and sun-dried tomato are just some of the many homemade treats from 'The Pantry.' The chic sillar (white volcanic rock) building and good coffee help make this the place to chat or type in Arequipa.
