Thanks so much for this! I was in Lima last May and have a long list of dietary restrictions myself, including gluten. It’s great to see read this post. I went to T’antA, Acurio’s more bistro-like restaurant (the location in centro) when I was there and had a great (if relatively expensive for Peru) meal of ceviche and causa (the kind of stacked seafood salad with dairy-free mashed potatoes and avocado).

And the markets are heavenly for anyone traveling gluten-free. All the exotic fruit at the Mercado Surquillo and the Organic Bio Feria in Miraflores are stunning and delicious. Next time you’ll have to try AlmaZen. It’s an upscale vegetarian restaurant. Chef David makes a lot of his cakes and even tamales with quinoa flour, and he does mango and lucuma mousses with agar-agar. But of course if corn isn’t an issue than you can go just about anywhere in the city as long as there’s no contamination.

Oh! And Punta Sal in Miraflores for top quality ceviche with black conches leche de tigre and a spectacular view. Wow, I miss it…
