Ignacio (“Iggy”) Otranto (co-owner) was born in Argentina and came to the United States in 2000. He was raised in an Italian-Argentinian family and food was always central to family life. His happiest childhood memories are watching his Nonna make pasta, empanadas, and other delicious specialties for Sunday family gathering. Later, while growing up in the United States, he learned the art of making mouth-watering meats over a parrilla (an Argentinian style grill) for his family and friends. While going to school, he worked in several restaurants and enjoyed sharing his passion for food with his customers. Iggy is a newlywed and he and his wife, Ariana, will celebrate their first-year anniversary in September. Ignacio loves to meet people and cannot wait to welcome you to Lima 32 and introduce you to the delicious Peruvian dishes that await you.
Victor Sangio (co-owner) was born in Peru and came to the United States in 2003. He has spent many years as a chef of different ethnicities and flavors. Victor began his culinary career in Italy, where he lived and learned different styles of Italian cooking. As he continued his journey in Italy, he knew his goal was to own a restaurant of his own. Victor brought his cooking knowledge and experiences to Connecticut working in several different restaurants. In 2017, in Meriden, Connecticut he opened The Flavor Point Restaurant. There, he introduced his amazing Peruvian recipes that were loved by all! Victor has been married for 12 years to his wife, Katty Sangio, and has two sons, 7 years old and 11 months old. He looks forward to welcoming all new and returning customers at Lima 32!
