More like crazy awesome Andean Japanese fusion - Pisco Sours and raw seafood capriccios!
If this is any good it will be a great addition to the Boston ethnic food landscape.

This post reminded me that there was a group of traditional Peruvian street musicians that used to regularly play on the mall between Macy's and Filenes, and also in Harvard Square. I haven't seen them for years, wonder if they are still in the area?

Now I have their version of "Sound of Silence" stuck in my head. It's Inca Son, by the way.

If you don't want to wait for great Peruvian food, there's Rincon Limeño a short walk from the Airport stop.

.....there were a LOT of groups like that.

At first I thought it was one group, that I happened to pass by, noticing the Zamfir -esque pan flute with tons of vibrato on a harmonica stand each time.

I saw them at Harvard Square, various places in Boston. Then I saw them in NYC. I even saw them in Umbria, Italy for god's sake.

There's even a South Park episode with a band like this on it.

They were the kids-playing-plastic-drums of about 15 years ago.

Sounds like Inca Son. I haven't seen them around in a while and I don't know if they are still active.

The article says, "Ruka will open this fall in the lobby of the Godfrey. Also planned for the ground level is a new location for George Howell Coffee..."

"This fall" probably means the fall of 2017, given the way this entire building project has been so far behind schedule.
