Women and men, the wealthy sort, gathered, and sat to dinner, ready to devour a plate of Pollo a la Brasa. The place: Lima, Peru. The year: somewhere between the 1950s and the 1970s; prior to people of lesser means' consumption of the dish. The chicken is salty, smoky and juicy, and it's traditionally served on a bed of large-cut French fries, and is traditionally eaten sans cutlery and with fingers.
