Raymi Mosca, who owns Mi Peru South American Grill in Henderson (1450 W. Horizon Ridge Parkway), was a real estate agent in Chicago for 14 years before going back to his roots as a chef of his native Peruvian cuisine. He once had a small restaurant in Lima that specialized in criollo (native) dishes such as seco, dried beef and the mixed grilled local seafood specialty known as parihuela.
