A Chifa Celebration Through the Peruvian Lens
To honor Lunar New Year, La Mar Bellevue presents a limited culinary celebration inspired by Chifa, the deeply rooted intersection of Chinese migration and Peruvian culinary identity. The experience blends wok technique, aromatics, seafood, spice, and Pacific Northwest sourcing, resulting in dishes that feel festive, soulful, and contemporary.
The celebration may be enjoyed à la carte, through limited daily specials, or via the Chifa Experiencia tasting format. Across all expressions, the menu illustrates a shared culinary heritage built on migration, adaptation, and flavor evolution.
