Like any proud Peruvian (well, halvsies), I can't get through a conversation about the country without waxing nostalgic about my favorite foods: conchitas a la parmesana (scallops baked in Parmesan cheese), lenguado con mantequilla negra y alcaparras...

Overall impression: Inconsistency reigns at St. Tropez. The service would indicate that you are having a memorable dining experience. The cuisine, on the other hand, alternates between moments of excellence, ordinariness and mediocrity. St. Tropez, in one...
