chivito de pollo.
El Copacabana Restaurant, Ciudad Vieja, Montevideo, Uruguay.
The chivito is Uruguay's specialty sandwich, so I decided it was worth a try during my short stay in the country. I was a bit intimidated before I ordered because I saw other customers chowing down on collosal towers of meat, eggs, cheese, and vegetables that could have easily fed all of Uruguay for a week. Fortunately, the chicken chivito I ordered was manageable. See notes for ingredients (if they aren't already obvious).
Sorry for the strange coloring; the red umbrellas above us gave a seriously pinkish hue to the photo, and I tried to salvage it a bit in Photoshop.
