Chef Hector Solis turned northern food into gourmet delicacies at the best Peruvian restaurants. Dishes like "arroz con pato" (rice with duck), "seco de cabrito" (goat stew) or "cebiche de pato" (duck cebiche) started being served at first class restaurants. Hector is the owner of northern Peruvian food restaurant "Fiesta" which is one of the best of its kind. He has written the book "Lambayeque, la cocina de un gran señor" (Lambayeque: the kitchen of a great lord), which records recipes and traditional flavors from the region. It took him two years of research to list the different foods of this department. He constantly participates in national gastronomic events as an exhibitor and frequently invited to take part at international events abroad to talk about Peruvian food.
