Uruguayan cuisine is influenced by the cuisines of many other European nations. Here are three classic Uruguayan dishes you must try.
Chivito: Although its name translates to « little goat, » Uruguay’s national dish is a slice of grilled or roasted beef served in a bun with lettuce, tomato, mozzarella cheese, and a fried egg.
Asado: This dish is made by barbecuing meat over a wood fire, then served with side dishes like salads, bread, and of course, beer.
Chajá: This heavenly Uruguayan cake is made up of three layers of vanilla sponge cake, peach syrup, dulce de leche, finely chopped meringue cookies, and scrumptious whipped cream.
