Chef Ricardo Zarate is opening a new Italian-Peruvian-inspired location of his Colibri Pop-Up with Love & Salt/Olivetta chef Michael Fiorelli this Tuesday, April 11 in West Hollywood. The concept will explore a style of cuisine that has been developing in Peru since large migrations of Italians began appearing in the South American country back in the late 1700s. Menu items may include yellowtail tiradito with dragonfruit, coconut and olive oils, tallarines rojos with a handmade tagliatelle, tomato ragu, chicken thigh, and huancaina, and seafood pasta with aji verde and tobiko. Meanwhile, a concept called Tacos on the Alley from El Zarape owner Alberto Mendez will operate in the space simultaneously, offering tacos specific to various parts of Mexico and a full bar with cocktails.
