A couple months ago, one of my favourites TV shows come to my town, not only to Puerto Varas but, Santiago, Valparaiso, and Curico.
Tasting most of our typical food, the chef Anthony Bourdain took over our streets and tasted from ” completos ” to ” Terremotos”. Although there are some “over presented ” dishes and a few mistakes in the concept of what is typical on our food, the idea of the show was accomplished , to let the world know how well we eat in Chile also showing where you can enjoy yourself next time you visit our country.
We listed below, the places you must to visit when you come to this part of the world, and of course presented in this show
- Fuente Alemana : ( Santiago) If you are staying in Providencia neighbourhood this place is very close from you . Located in Pedro de Valdivia Street # 210, almost in the corner with 11 de Septiembre Avenue. Of course is not the only one, there is another one in ” Plaza Italia ” close to the subway station “Baquedano”. Our Reccommendation : try ” Lomito Completo” ( pork loin with tomatoes, avocado, mayonnaise , pickles, sauerkraut )
