Las Terrazas $$
(Araujo 549; mains S15-30)
A little bit out of the town center, this popular place is well
worth the S1.50
mototaxi
ride. Packed with hungry diners daily, it serves up heaped plates
of seafood, and will ceviche or cook anything from fish to lobster and octopus. It's all pre-
pared in the northern coastal style and they have music Friday through Monday from 3pm.
It's on a classy 3rd-floor terrace and has flowing tablecloths, lots of decorations and a
festive mood - and completely flips the script on the rudimentary facade of the building
itself.

Classic Restaurant $$
(Tumbes 185; menú S7, mains S20-27; 8am-5pm)
Small, quiet as a funeral and digni-
fied, Classic Restaurant is a wonderful place to escape torrid Tumbes and relax with a
long lunch, as many of the town's better-connected locals do. The food is good and
mainly coastal, but secretly we love this place for its air-con. The S7 daily
menú
is a steal.
