This week's Neighborhood Eats visits two Queens restaurants 'Urubamba' and 'Jora' for their authentic Peruvian food.
Urubamba is beloved by the community for decades, and run by dad, but now, he's hoping to hand the reins to his son and daughter with their own restaurants.
"Peruvian food is getting more and more renowned," said Alejandro Rojas, owner of Jora. "We have a very, very rich soil and a lot of microclimates in Peru, which allows us to basically grow almost anything."
