La Paz Restaurants

La Paz restaurants are becoming increasingly cosmopolitan, and though there is still a lack of sophistication in dining out, the range is improving. Alongside a vast array of establishments serving traditional Bolivian fare, you can now choose between a small but excellent handful of sushi restaurants, get thoroughly carnivorous at one of the many Argentinean grill houses, go upmarket with new Swiss/Bolivian cuisine, or splash out on traditional dishes from the old country, Spain. The area around Plaza del Estudiante and the residential neighborhood of Sopocachi have a good selection of cheap eating. For a more international and expensive experience, head down to the southern area of the city, where you will also find the café-terrace set lounging around. Wherever you go, look out for the almuerzo if you're after a good-value set lunch.
