Lima's best-loved café -- it can be hard to find a table on the weekend between 11am and 2pm, but you can also get their delicious focaccia sandwiches and desserts to go. Free wifi and good coffee and juices too.

Hidden upstairs with only a chalkboard on the sidewalk to tell you that you've found "Barra Verde" is a restaurant/bar/butterfly sanctuary! The salads are huge and yummy, the vibe is a trendy open-air lounge, and if you're there before 10pm you can walk around the 3 floor tropical butterfly reserve.

Traditional food market, selling fruits, veggies, chickens, and other staples. You can also sit and get freshly squeezed juices or a cheap lunch, or buy fresh flowers. Most prices are negotiable, but only in Spanish. :)

Italian-style bistro across the street from the Huaca Pucllana ruins. The pastas and the wines are good, and they take reservations. Call ahead to get a table on the patio and star out at the ruins while you dine, which can be quite romantic in the evenings.

Cute café/restaurant. In the daytime, a great spot to sit with a coffee and your book/laptop. In the evening, grab a spot in the garden in the back. The lighting is romantic and the food is good.

Arts & Culture
Very interesting and politically controversial museum that does quite a good job at retelling some of the stories from Peru's internal armed conflict. They also often have free documentary screenings or panel discussions (Spanish only) in the evenings.
The easiest way to get here is to walk along Malecon de la Marina, then continue north on Avenida del Ejercito for one block until you can turn left and follow the steps down to the LUM entrance.

Parks & Nature
Just in front of the Malecón (the pedestrian walkway and bike path that runs for several kilometers along the cliff in front of the ocean), Maria Reiche Park is especially charming at night, where replicas of the Nasca lines are lit up. During the daytime you can sit and stare out at the ocean, have a picnic, do yoga, or relax and read, just like the many many parks that dot the Malecón. Stroll down and you'll come across people playing music, working out, sunbathing, or playing with their kids and dogs.

Sightseeing
Large pre-colonial ruins, right in the middle of a residential neighbourhood! You can stroll around the perimeter of the ruins, or for a fee go inside for a tour. There is also a little italian bistro (Bodega de la Trattoria) with a patio that overlooks the ruins which are lit up at night.

One of the many interesting parks along the Malecón, the Parque del Amor has a large sculpture and Barcelona-style mosaics along its walls. It's a lovely place to stroll and look out over the ocean.
