As if I hadn't eaten enough delicious stuff in Chile, here's another one to add to the list. Parrillada! It's basically a giant serving of meat with some potatoes thrown in there for good measure. For my last almuerzo together with my whole host family, we went to a small town outside San Felipe called Putaendos to enjoy some parrillada. Our meal started out with some delicious and still warm bread, followed by picada (picking plate, no mas) with escabeche, olives and arrollada (pork rolled in spices and then rolled up in it's own fat...delicious!). Then came the parrillada. The waiter basically sets down a small sized barbeque right in the middle of our table covered in chicken, beef and pork. Not to mention intestines and coagulated blood sausage, both of which I tried and both of which were very good! Even though there were five of us and we ordered the parrillada for four, we only finished probably half the meat that was on there! It seemed like the "four" is probably four giant men. We definitely had some good leftovers for a few days. Yum!
