Are you one of those people who prefers to avoid sugars or refined flours in your meals? Or, by conviction, do you follow a vegetarian or vegan diet? Whether for health reasons or caring for the environment and animals, more and more people in Peru are opting for healthy cooking (we take the meaning of the phrase broadly, encompassing: gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan cuisine). This year, you can choose your favorite in the We Are Awards.
In its second edition, it seeks to recognize those spaces that – with creativity and innovation – have known how to revalue Peruvian inputs without using meat or its derivatives.
The Somos 2024 Awards have already announced their nominees. There will be 42 categories in which the public will be able to vote for their favorite. As we remember, last year 25 thousand people chose their favorites.
In the category for Best Healthy Food Space (gluten free, vegan, vegetarian), 10 establishments compete. Find out what they are in the gallery that accompanies this note. Don’t forget to vote HERE for your favorite
Journalists from Somos magazine and our digital gastronomic space Provecho, as well as voices specialized in different areas, select the nominees for the Somos Awards. This year, the special jury includes: Paola Miglio, ‘chairwoman’ in Latin America of 50 Best Restaurants; Hirka Roca Rey, gastronomic editor; Pierina Denegri, journalist from Provecho; and Jimena Agois, journalist and photographer for “Correo”.
The public should note that the nominations cover the period between April 2023 and May 2024.

It should be noted that, this year, people who participate by voting for their favorites will have the opportunity to win an incredible double trip to Madrid. Participate now!
For this edition of the Somos 2024 Awards, we have a series of news for our readers. This time, we will be drawing a double trip to Madrid, allowing the winners to explore the vibrant capital of Spain, known for its rich history, culture and gastronomy. The prize includes round trip tickets for two people. The date of the flight will be coordinated between the winner and the Empresa Editora El Comercio SA, ensuring that the trip can be made at the most convenient time for the winner.
In addition to the trip to Madrid, we are raffling off an Asti model Indurama kitchen. This award is ideal for those who enjoy cooking and are looking to improve their culinary experience with a high-quality, modern-design appliance. We will also be raffling off 10 LQF Whiteline 2.5L air fryers, which are perfect for preparing healthier meals without giving up flavor and crispy texture.
