🔥 TAMPA, I NEED YOUR OPINION 🔥

I’ve been working on a new concept called CASA NIKKEI 🇵🇪🇯🇵

For those who don’t know, Nikkei cuisine is the fusion of Peruvian and Japanese flavors—one of the most exciting food movements in the world. Think fresh ceviches, sushi rolls with Peruvian ingredients, tiraditos, robata-grilled meats, crispy seafood, bold sauces, and dishes you won’t find everywhere.

I’m considering doing a pop-up experience and wanted to see if there’s interest before I make it happen.

Would you come?

👇 Let me know in the comments:
🍣 Love sushi?
🐟 Love ceviche?
🔥 Love trying unique food concepts?
🙋‍♂️ Would you attend a Casa Nikkei pop-up?

If enough people are interested, I’ll start working on dates, menu previews, and exclusive dishes.

Tag someone you’d bring with you. 👇

🔥 Chifa is where Peruvian and Chinese flavors collide — a fusion born from Chinese immigrants bringing wok cooking to Peru and creating some of the most iconic street food in Latin America.

At El Pollo Cartel, our Chifa-style Tallarines Chow Mein are tossed in a blazing hot wok with savory noodles, stir-fried veggies, fresh scallions, sesame, and loaded with bold flavor in every bite. 🔥🍜

This isn’t your average chow mein… this is Peruvian street flavor with cartel energy. 🇵🇪🥢

🔥 The slow rotation. The smoky aroma. The crispy skin.
That’s the magic of authentic Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa 🇵🇪🔥

Born in Peru in the 1950s, Pollo a la Brasa became a tradition known around the world — marinated for hours with bold spices, then cooked low and slow over fire until perfectly juicy inside and crispy outside.

At El Pollo Cartel, we stay true to that tradition while bringing our own flavor to Tampa. From the seasoning to the char, every chicken is cooked fresh on the rotisserie and made with passion.

People keep telling us we serve the BEST chicken in town… and once you try it, you’ll understand why 👀🔥🐔
