Donde El Guaton (Where is the fat man?)

We have settled into the Spanish routine remarkably quickly - a leisurely lunch, back for a snooze and thin soup for dinner.  Helps the jetlag no end

Kin Mun researched a restaurant for lunch, Donde el Guaton.  After a walk, via various shops, we found it.

And walked in.

There was a big grill at the front of the restaurant

but it seemed to be only for the bread.

We ordered.

We had two traditional Chilean dishes.  I had Choclo, and the description of corn, onions, minced meat, chicken did nothing to prepare me for what came! It is the Chilean version of shepherd's pie, with corn instead of mashed potato and topped with sugar which melts into the corn.  Quiet sweet - but actually very nice.

Kin Mun had the house specialty - a huge piece of tender beef, salad and rice.

And postre (dessert).

And a glass of red wine - Chilean of course.  Limon juice  (which is actually lime), and coffee, all for AU25 each. 

You can see that the restaurant is not over-heated - nor is anywhere else.
