Amid Carrollton's changing restaurant scene, the Inca's Café Really Gets Its Goat
| Sara Kerens |
Inca's Café first opened in the heart of Carrollton as Esparzas in 2003, but later changed their name to Inca's, which makes clearer their devotion to Peruvian cuisine. Located in a tattered shopping strip just north of the George Bush, Inca's would doubtless do better business if located near a more moneyed part of Dallas. No matter that the streets outside are bumpy, and the dark foyer makes it unclear if the place is even open, simply tug on the door and prepare yourself for an outstanding South American repast. Inside, the boxlike interior is exotic, with gilt-edged touches and colorful artwork adorning the walls, culminating in a beautiful mural hung over the bar. I was greeted by the genial proprietor, who graciously assisted me throughout the entire meal, and offered insight into the world of Peruvian cuisine and its mélange of Asian, Italian, and pre-Columbian influences.More >>
