FROM THE SEA TO YOUR TABLE

Two years ago, Time magazine chose Chile’s traditional chacarero, the delicious sandwich made of beef, green beans, tomato slices and green chili, as one of the most amazing sandwiches of the world. The list noted its low cost (USD $7) and the popularity of this sandwich in the country.

Chacarero is not alone and Chile’s gastronomy has a wide variety of sandwiches. Here’s this delicious option to add to the hall of fame of sandwiches.

 Churrasco marino: its name may not be well known all over Chile, but for the people of the Coquimbo region, is a classic. A sandwich that is prepared in a typical chilean bread, marraqueta, and that has fried fish and a salad made out of tomatoes, onion and green chili (known as Chilean salad). No doubt it makes for a sublime culinary experience.
