Each regional cuisine is influenced by native foods and spices as well as the influences of other cultures. Mexican food is famously spicy, thanks to the popularity of the indigenous chile pepper which has been a basic ingredient in Mexican cuisine for thousands of years, while Argentinian cuisine is traditionally beef-oriented and cattle have played a major role in Argentinian culture since they were brought to Argentina by Spanish conquistadors in 1536. Within each country, there are distinct regional specialties as well. Colombia, for example, is incredibly geographically diverse, and its cuisine reflects this diversity: in the city of Medellin and the surrounding mountainous Antioquia region, the typical dish is the hearty bandeja paisa, a substantial and filling meal including sausage, beef, beans, rice, pork rind, an arepa, plantain, fried egg, and a slice of avocado, while in tropical Cartagena, cuisine is solidly Caribbean, with seafood, coconut rice, and spicy flavors dominating the menu. Many countries' cuisine also shows the strong influence of the many different cultures that have left their mark on that nation. Peruvian cuisine is known as one of the biggest examples of fusion cuisine, with Peruvian food giving a veritable history of multicultural influence including indigenous cultures, Spanish colonists, and immigrants from Italy, Germany, China, Japan, and West Africa.  #### We Suggest: \`[8 Day Culinary Journey of Peru](https://www.keytours.com/lima/tours-and-cruises/culinary-journey-of-peru/496/CJP08/7546) [Read More](https://blog.keytours.com/foodandwinelatinamerica) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.keytours.com/foodandwinelatinamerica#comments-listing) Topics: [Latin America](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/latin-america), [food](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/food), [wine](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/wine), [peru](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/peru), [argentina](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/argentina), [coffee](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/coffee), [chocolate](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/chocolate), [colombia](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/colombia), [mexico](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/mexico), [food and wine](https://blog.keytours.com/topic/food-and-wine) [All posts](https://blog.keytours.com/all) ## Unforgettable Tailor-Made Travel Experiences #### Plan Your Next Adventure With decades of expertise in tailor-made independent trips, small group journeys, and customized group travel, Keytours Vacations’ seasoned travel consultants create unforgettable travel experiences designed to perfectly fit each client’s unique interests and needs.
