What you need to know
Brichera = a local girl only interested in gringos for sex/money/status. They roll through as many guys as a hooker but without direct pay. They vary on the importance of money to them, and bitchiness. Their English is usually good.
Pituca-rich chick. If she lives in Miraflores, San Isidro, or La Molina she is a Pituca no questions asked. Some also live in Lince, San Miguel and possibly some other neighborhoods, all of which have nice parts and not so nice parts. More likely to speaks decent English, more likely to have lighter skin, might have a car, generally more conservative about giving it up.
Normal girls- everyone else, not as slutty as Bricheras. Less likely to speak good English.
For newbies to international life: If she is alone she is a hooker. If there are two of them they might be hookers. Bricheras usually roll in groups of 2 or more. If she approaches you, she is a hooker or brichera. If it’s 2 or 3 in a group you nab 1 and the others in the group never come back to check on her, probably a hooker.
Knowledge of Spanish is key, w/o Spanish you’re relegated to bricheras or hoping to find a pituca who wants to speak to you and put out.
BARS/CLUBS
Beers cost about $4, mixed drinks $5+
CALLE DE PIZZAS and NEARBY
Old Pub Bar- on Calle de Pizzas lots of 40+ year old expat dudes, some Peruvians with gfs, few attractive single females. Whores seem to roll in at 11:30/12:00 on the weekends. Occasionally good looking normal girls or pitucas will come here bc they like the 80’s music they play here.
Cocodrilo Verde- Camino btwn Bellavista and Libertad about a minute from Calle de Pizzas. Jazz bar/lounge for the rich, has blues bands on Tuesdays too, I think this show is free. Usually a cover/ticket $10-$15. Night I went was mostly 40 year olds and up, not a place for pickup bc of logistics. Crowd might vary depending on who is playing. Don’t bring bricheras here, jazz on your ipod in your dorm room is all they get.
Bizarro- next to Cocodrilo verde, Pituco bar seen some nice trim lining up to get into this bar. DJ’s and bands perform here.
Sabor de Peru- On Calle de Pizzas. Mainly hookers, some bricheras, some normal girls here. You walk in the hookers are on the left or next to the bar, normal girls are at the tables, bricheras are making out with backpackers. Dance floor is mix of everything. You end up spending most of your time deciphering who is and isn’t a hooker.
VIP- on calle de pizzas, much less whores, no bricheras, mainly normal girls and Pitucas and fewer gringos than Sabor de Peru and a little bit better quality. Better club layout as well.
Son de Cuba- on calle de pizzas, has Cuban salsa classes I think every day around 7. Plays all salsa music, sometimes a cover $2-3. Thursday is best night to go.
another club near Sabor de Peru is basically the same deal with less or no hookers. You walk upstairs to get to it.
Houlihans-Bellavista near calle de pizzas. Expat pub with more normal expats than Pub Bar. Fewer prostitutes than Pub Bar. First time there saw 2 smoking hot girls already taken. Returned a few times, hit or miss. Smoking outside the patio there on the street would be a good routine to talk to girls when they leave their group or people walking by, many bars on this street. Some attractive girls with older expats here, they usually seem bored.
Gotica- coverage charge $15-20. On the weekend before 12 there are not many good looking girls in this club, after 12 a good amount start to roll in. It seems to kick-off earlier on Thursday maybe 10 or so. Plenty of girls without dudes and plenty of attractive women. Much higher quality than calle de pizzas. Play r&b, and salsa music.
Barranco Boulevard- street off the plaza with bars and clubs. Just walk by stick ur head in and see what you like and which music u prefer, usually salsa, r&b dance mix. Mostly people in their 20’s possibly 18+, I’m too old to tell. Some bars have a small cover but you get a drink with them. Didn’t see a lot of single talent at the club I went into (Hypnosis), decent amount of tail walking around outside the clubs. Taxi ride from here to Miraflores is about $3 and takes 15 minutes. On the other side of the plaza there are some cool bar/restaurants with patios and nice views near the park and coast, nice place to bounce a girl to.
Huaringas Bar- Bolognesi and Madrid, near the Hitchhikers Hostel in Miraflores. A cool bar/restaurant on top of Brujas de Cachiche. The second floor is decent option for mingling, third floor is all tables, fourth floor I don’t remember. This is a high end place to grab a drink and have a bite to eat (more to drink) . Pisco Sour runs around $7 here, mostly rich people saw one gringo business man here and a few Asians. Has a lounge vibe set in an old mansion, good place to bounce a respectable girl to, so you can separate yourself from the backpacker riff raff. Second floor has tables and a bar and few all girl sets were showing interest. Started to fill up around 8:30 on a Thursday. Don’t bring Brichera trash here, Burger King is all they get.
Tequila Rock- didn’t go inside but an American I met went said there was a small cover charge and it was 100% hookers, and he was horrible at spotting hookers, so they must have been extremely obvious.
Bohemia- on Ovalo Guitierez in Miraflores, 2nd floor. Bohemia is the restaurant, the bar has a different name. Plays 80’s music until around midnight, then salsa and merengue and people start to dance. Mostly seem to be around 30 or older, some all girl sets there trolling for cock, saw some older gringos. Pretty cool place, not the best looking girls.
Murphy’s Irish Pub- Schell near Paseo de Republica, stuck my head in on a Thursday around 9:00, two dudes in there place looks depressing and run down.
Treff- Benavides and Alconfores, pub style, mostly mix sets and a good crowd, but all at tables.
Tumbao VIP- Calle Bellavista next to Calle de Pizzas, always good looking trim in a line to get into this place. They seem to be 25 or younger.
El Tayta- on Larco near parque kennedy, logistically a nightmare to try to game here, only a few seats at the bar , mainly tables with large groups, they have live music.
Mama Batas-In Larco mall 2nd floor, good option for upper 20’s and over bar. Two bars, with tables in the middle. Around midnight they start taking the tables away and people start dancing. Lots of people standing around so it’s easy to mingle. Some pros hang out there. Left at 2:00 there was a line to get in.
La Maquina- Alconfores and Diez Canseco. It’s a cafe but every Friday at 8 until 9 or 10 they have a language exchange. Nobody seemed to speak any English, it was more of a group of people that want to hang out and meet new people. Most girls not attractive but it’s a good way to start to build a social circle. First room on the left with a coach when you walk in. Some cute girls eat there so when they leave you can try to talk them into hanging around, bc the door is where the people who run the exchange hang out. Good sandwiches at this place too.
Avenida Arequipa- In Lince district. Go to El Burrito/Miami Pollo a la Brasa. Restraunt that serves beer 24hrs a day. Upstairs they have music and dancing. Groups come here to eat, drink, and dance. All tables so not best if you’re going solo. Talent average, no gringos. Across the street there is a club Hooligans, didn’t go.
Other
Parque de las aguas (circuito magico del agua)- cool park to take a girl to at night. Has a bunch of different fountains that are cool and a light show basically showing a video in the fountain. Only go at night. Not a place to game girls, but a place to bring a girl on a date for an hour or so. Lots of families and kids running through the fountains and getting wet (in the summer). It’s near the estadio olympico and is a buck and change per person to get in. Word on the street is that the area is dodgy outside the park (La Victoria neighborhood) so wandering around outside the park is not advised.
Surfing- 2 hour lesson about $50, 10 minute walk from Miraflores.
Texas Hold ‘em- tournaments and cash games at Atlantic City, Fiesta, and Majestic. Can’t play until 6pm.
RestaurantsTons of good one so I’ll give the details on some popular ones and high end ones. FYI Peruvians eat lunch at 1 and lunch restaurants open at 12-12:30, any proper seafood place only does ceviche or seafood at lunch…more fresh
Punto Azul- Alcanfores y San Martin, tues-Sun, opens at noon, line to eat from 12:30-3. Ate there multiple times a week, large portions, good quality, for a reasonable price. Most dishes $7-15, in Miraflores. Everything I’ve tried is good.
Mi Propiedad de Privada- on the coast near San Miguel. Had ceviche good, grilled octopus ridiculously good and some other stuff. 2 peeps with appetizer and entre and drinks $40, a freaking steal.
Bruja de Caciche- Very high end place at bolognesi and Madrid. Had the ceviche, was good but half the amount you get at Punto Azul for 50% price. Cool high class décor most dishes $20+. They have a buffet for $30.
Segundo Muelle- various location, most dishes $10+, good ceviche.
La Lucha- sandwich place NW corner of Parque Kennedy, very good sandwiches.
Gyms
Gold Gym is about $60 a month (benavides y larco) Have classes, some decent tail running around in there, needs more space is my only complaint. There are others from what I’ve heard $50+ a month.
Apartments
Estelar Apartamentos- $100-$180 a day, block or so from Parque Kennedy, has a gym there. It is run by Estelar Hotel which is a 5 star hotel a few blocks away
Innperu- This is where I booked my apartment, they speak English, I had no problems with them.
Urbania.pe- Can find numerous furnished apartments here, for Miraflores listed prices $700+, they don’t respond to emails, so you have to call them.
Comercio- This is the local paper, the better deals are found here but they go quick.
Summary and Results
I’m white, mid 30’s and speak good Spanish for a frame of reference. Stayed in an apartment in Miraflores.
My lays 50% pitucas, 50% normal girls, 0% bricheras (I’m still in shock over this, in Cusco I was 75% bricheras)
Half 25-30, half 30+
Online, Latincupid is where I nabbed most.
Never got shot down for phone numbers at clubs/bars, but most went nowhere. Girls I met online rarely flaked, the ones I met at bars/clubs usually flaked.
Never figured out where bricheras lurk. I know around Parque Kennedy, but not sure if they nab backpackers in the park, outside the hostel, or there is some secret backpacker/brichera hangout that I’m not allowed to go to. Find the backpackers and you’ll find the bricheras. Possibly they are spread out so not one place to find bricheras. Two that are always roaming around Parque Kennedy are Jessica and her friend Daisy or something. Always stopping random dudes and talking to them. Don’t know if they bang or use backpackers for drinks but I see them with multiple guys per week.
Most my bangs I needed a few meets to seal the deal.
Calle de Pizzas has the most hookers, and not the best quality for other girls.
Anywhere with a steep cover charge $10 or more (Larco mall clubs, clubs on Bellavista and Libertad near Calle de Pizzas) has attractive women. There are others scattered around Miraflores on Larco Avenue.
No llamada perdidas, girls use texts (cell phone service cheaper than Colombia)
Logistics of Lima will hurt your chances. Many girls live far from where you will stay (Miraflores, Barranco, San Isidro), on a map it is not far but it will take them 30 minutes to an hour to meet you, possibly more. So for some it’s hard to see you during the week, which clogs your weekends. The ones that do live close are probably Pitucas and in general take longer to put out, want more proof you’re sticking around, have a career, etc. So if you’re gaming a girl find out where she lives and works to figure out if she is likely to bang you on a Tuesday. For whatever reason most of my lays came from girls living in San Miguel.
One night stands are not common, a few times I was close and the “friend” obstacle always screwed it up, bc they will stick together. These girls would later flake too or disappear then call you a week or so later.
90% of the time I watched local Peruvians hit on chicks sitting down they were denied immediately. Typical latin country where social circle game is where it is at, and people don’t trust strangers in bars. Most Peruvians told me, “don’t trust Peruvians”. I never had any issues.
Blonde , blue eyes, and tall would do best here. Don’t ask me about any other races bc I don’t know.
I leave in a few days, I learn anything new I’ll post it.
If rep points come back you suckas better not forget.
