OK Ok ok, getting close, close enough for us all to know our plans. It seems we can do a brunch amongst some of us on the 4th, k rrrrico.
Bueno, soy extranjero en Miraflores, żpuede sugerir un tiempo y un lugar con un patio y sin mariscos demasiado?

Well I doubt that there is a brunch on a Wed. We should probably consider a lunch and I think it depends on how deep the pockets are of those attending. The lunch buffet at the Marriott in Miraflores has a wide selection of food and plenty of sea food and sushi for those who enjoy that. The ambiance is also excellent. However it costs 74 soles and may be out of reach for a student studying in Europe. The referred to student might suggest an alternative if the Marriott is difficult to manage. OR since we are in Peru, the gentlemen could pick up her bill.

A simple lunch would be fine for me, on a patio with some beers and friendly banter... but no problem doing more upscale if it is the consensus (and no problem being a gentleman about it either ).
As for timing, Johny should speak up here since he is the one with travel plans that day, me I am flexible.

I need to fly at 8pm so the brunchier the lunch the better
Didn't I already say I cannot go to the Marriott since I fell off my stool and knocked all the Iberia FAs over?

I believe you did. How about breakfast then? I'm sure there's somewhere where a brunch-y breakfast is available.

Most good hotels serve breakfast until 10:00 or so. I have high status at Marriott, so am most familiar with that restaurant. However I imagine that the new Westin is probably OK as would be any of the 5 star hotels such as the Swisshotel, Novotel or Miraflores Park Hotel. I am around La Molina, so obviously lunch is better for me given the Javier Prado situation in the morning. But I will be happy to sacrifice for the greater good.

Where is la Molina? I'll be at óvalo Gutiérrez.
What's this chain hotel nonsense? I want pan con chicharrón off the back of a cart sold by a wrinkly woman with a gaudy ruana.

So, I may not be able to make breakfast (or anything really) on the 4th. :S If it's any consolation, I have confidence that we'll all meet eventually! I'll post again once I know what will happen that day. I do agree that San Antonio or something like that in Miraflores is a good idea.

Yes
Ok, I confirm that I can do breakfast tomorrow. Somewhere in/near Miraflores would be nice, so david_33's suggestions are good. (San Antonio is always nice. I've never actually been to La Tiendecita Blanca.)
