The Vegan Temple By Prasada

A very very unique restaurant with great vibes! The taste was great, portions were massive, and the ambience was very pleasant. Would totally recommend going if you’re looking for some Asian/Indian food, but maybe not if you’re in a rush. The ambient music and games/coloring books etc are best enjoyed with time. I also want to defend against some other reviews, don’t let them dissuade you — removing shoes and sitting on a low table is a cultural thing and very common in Tibetan/North Indian places. Yes it’s weird that the staff doesn’t remove shoes, but it’s not more “unhygienic” than eating with your hands. If you don’t like the idea, maybe don’t go. If you’re dusty/sweaty after a hike, maybe skip this place (or generally any _nice_ place). Also anecdotally, my food arrived in ~20 minutes, which is shockingly fast in Peru: I was alone in the restaurant so probably why, I could hear them chopping and cooking fresh food and I respect that.

Lovely spot, very chilled, nice vibe. Great menu; we chose to make our own burger, which was huge and very tasty, although the bread was a little hard, like most places in Peru and Bolivia. And one of the curries, which was very tasty, although it could have been a little more juicy/watery. But great portions. A little more expensive than previous places we have been, but I guess we are in Cusco city center. Ignore the previous comments about hygiene, etc.; the place was clean and tidy, as were the toilets. Would definitely eat here again and recommend.

Wonderful place with delightful ambiance, delicious and healthy food, and a very kind owner. Highly recommended.
