Leche de Tigre was established by three brothers and a cousin to celebrate a common Peruvian heritage, and it does so with flair and finesse. SanAntonio SATX SanAntonioTX SanAntonioFood SanAntonioRestaurants Peru
By whatever spelling one uses, the Peruvian iteration of the popular citrus-marinated seafood preparation is customarily more briefly doused in lime than might be common in, say, Mexico, which really emphasizes the freshness of the primary product.
Of the five cebiches — as the restaurant spells it — listed on the menu, the Clasico is the most traditional. With striped bass as its foundation, the serving, cradled in a gourd, also includes the customary boiled sweet potato, along with tender choclo, Peru's plump-kerneled corn, and canchitas, a popular unpopped"popcorn."
The Tataki is a direct Japanese reference to a style of cooking, in this case with tuna, that requires a quick searing followed by a drizzle of an acidic sauce — here a leche with orange juice and feisty aji amarillo chiles. Sidekicks such as roasted peanuts, scallions and sesame oil, along with slivered and pickled daikon and carrots, complete the package, which is made even more appealing by a scattering of black sesame seeds.
