Cuisine of Peru: A Restaurant in Newnan, Georgia

Dining out in Newnan can be an adventure. Located at 30 Perry Street Newnan, GA 30263, one block off the Court Square, Cuisine of Peru has become an essential part of the old downtown section of Newnan, which prides itself as the "City of Homes."


Well now, I've been to many a city, and have keenly observed the fact that all of them are filled with homes, all kinds of homes: large ones, small ones, old ones, new ones.


So why, I asked the friend I was visiting, perhaps somewhat facetiously, why is Newnan the city of homes? We stood at the corner of the square walking home from a Peruvian lunch. Waiting with several others - there's lots of foot traffic in old town Newnan - for the light to change, I looked up and observed an old-fashioned marquee sitting atop the cut-stone building of the Newnan Carnegie Library. It said: "City of Homes."
