Peruvian ceviche could soon have a place on the international stage thanks to a new food competition announced by Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos. The project, described as a kind of "Food World Cup", will bring together dishes from different countries, with viewers choosing their favorites.
Ibai shared the idea on his social media and invited countries to submit a dish to represent their cuisine. For Peru, he suggested ceviche, one of the country's best-known traditional dishes and a food that has become closely associated with Peruvian gastronomy around the world.
The competition is expected to follow a format similar to a tournament, with dishes facing off against each other as audiences vote for their favorites. According to the reports, the event is planned for September 2026, although further details about the exact format and participating countries are still expected to be announced.
The proposal has already caught the attention of Peruvians, particularly because ceviche has long been one of the country's most recognizable dishes. Its possible participation would give international audiences another opportunity to discover a key part of Peruvian cuisine and the food culture that has made Peru a popular destination for travelers.
