📖 The Story Behind This Dish

True to its name, which means 'complete,' the completo is a simple hot dog loaded with as many toppings as it can hold. The favorite is the 'italiano,' topped with mashed avocado, tomato, and mayonnaise in the green, white, and red of the Italian flag. It's Chile's national fast food, sold at street kiosks and fuentes de soda (casual diners).

🌆 Where it's eaten: At a street kiosk in Santiago, people on their way home from work eat completos standing up in the early evening.
