Have you tried any specific dishes yet? I highly recommend the completos if you haven't! They're a Chilean twist on hot dogs and are delicious!

Hi Carlos! That's a great suggestion! Completos are indeed a popular street food in Chile, and they come topped with a variety of ingredients that make them unique. If you enjoy those, you might also want to try curanto, which is a traditional dish with mixed meats and seafood, often cooked in a pit.

What about wine? Chile is famous for its wines! Are there any local wine shops or tasting events that feature Chilean wines?

[Admin_chile]

Great question, Diego! Chilean wines are indeed world-renowned. You should definitely check out local wine shops that offer tastings, like V Wine Room or Silverlake Wine. Many of them host events focusing on Chilean varietals like Carmenere and Malbec. Additionally, attending a wine and food pairing event can deepen your appreciation for both the food and the wine.

I recently attended a Chilean food festival in LA, and it was amazing! The empanadas were to die for. I think more of these events should happen!
