Beltline Blvd.\nprice: $15\n\nRotisserie chicken isn\u2019t exactly something that screams sex appeal when you walk into a restaurant. Paraiso del Inca, however, works some serious magic on the dish, showing why it is one of Peru\u2019s most beloved foods. The chicken, especially the dark meat half, is achingly tender and full of flavor. Just as good if not better is the skin, which is prepped with a delicate rub and has the perfectly subtle crackle that you would expect from meat that has been expertly roasted like this chicken. The rotisserie chicken comes with serviceable steak fries, a light salad and two condiments including a bright salsa verde and a deceptively spicy cream sauce.\n\nWe highly recommend that you wash this dish down with a chicha morada, a pleasantly smooth and sweet Peruvian beverage made from purple corn, fruit and cinnamon. Soda enthusiasts will want to dive into a can of Inca Kola, a distinctly neon yellow drink best described as a cross between cream soda and bubble gum.\n\nParaiso del Inca brought some much-needed ethnic food to the North Beltline side of town when it opened earlier this month.
