CHILE:

Chilean cuisine tends to the international, plus wonderful seafood that forms the base of many favored dishes. Ethnic restaurants abound in the cities. Vegetarian meals are available.  Soft drinks and juices are everywhere. The licuados, fruity milk shakes, are good. Try moté con huesillo , a peach and barley drink. Coffee is usually instant, but espresso is becoming popular. Tea is served black with lemon. Herbal teas, aguitas, are popular after dinner drinks. Try manzanilla, camomile, or a boldo .

Chilean wines are superb. Beer, pisco, aguardiente and imported hard liquors are popular. Make sure you try a Pisco Sour, made with egg white, lemon juice and powdered sugar. Try these Recipes from Chile. And when you're in Chile, be sure to try:

Cazuela: soup with meat or chicken, potato, corn and squash or other vegetables

Pastel de choclo: corn pie with meat, vegetables, chicken, olives and hard-boiled eggs

Lomo a lo pobre: fried beef, eggs, onions and french fries

Arroz con pollo: chicken and rice casserole

Curanto: seafood stew with chicken, pork, lamb, beef and potato

Chupes: stews of fish or beef
