What it is
The everything sandwich: chivito — a thin beef fillet in a bun with mozzarella, ham, bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato, onions, olives and mayonnaise — Uruguay's national sandwich (canadiense adds even more).

Recipe: 1) Grill the fillet fast. 2) Melt cheese over ham on top. 3) Stack everything in the toasted bun. 4) Serve with fries — a knife and fork are acceptable surrender. Serve: at bars and chiviterías across Montevideo. Flavor: excessive in the best way. History: invented in 1944 in Punta del Este by Antonio Carbonaro for a customer who asked for 'chivito' (goat) — he improvised with beef and history followed.
