Day Two Hundred Seventy-Two: Ponderacion

Following an after-dinner walk along the malecon, we  popped into a restaurant called "Popular" for drinks. An item on the menu called "Ponderacion" caught our attention, as the only description was: "traditional Peruvian dessert. Order it!" We were intrigued with the surprise factor and ordered one to share. We truly didn't know what to expect, but it turned out to be a lovely surprise! It is a spiral of crispy pastry covered with caramel sauce and topped with ice cream and fruit. It was delicious!
