Our story
A flavour slow-cooked for twenty-five years
Quality and passion for Ecuadorian cooking.
Roasted cuy is our speciality at Guajibamba: slow-roasted over charcoal until the skin turns crisp and the meat stays tender. Around it we serve the food we learned to cook at home, in a place where quality and genuine service make every visit memorable.
