There is an Irish saying that goes, "Only two things in this world are too serious to be jested on, potatoes and matrimony." However, Ireland is not the king of the vegetable patch when it comes to starchy spuds as over 4,000 varieties are native to Peru and have been cultivated there for at least 7,000 years. See how the Peruvians cook this coveted crop as well as other classic regional dishes with today's deal of $50 worth of fare at El Gran Inka for just $25.

Focusing on fresh Peruvian seafood dishes, El Gran Inka is known for its medley of flavorful ceviches and tiraditos in both citrus and cream sauces as well as appetizers like marinated Peruvian skewers. Main course options include the Peruvian-Chinese arroz con mariscos (seafood with rice), flambéed spicy shrimp, Peru's signature grilled mahi mahi with roasted bell peppers and the favorite lomo saltado. The drink menu features Peruvian beer and wine, but the pisco sour list is where it's at. Imbibe with unique offerings like the pisco de Cuzco, Chilacano pisco and pisco sour catedral.
