Very near the hostel is located the Social Home for ex Sportsmen (Hogar Social del Círculo de Ex Deportistas Juan Ramsey). This “picada” has meals for $1.500 chilean pesos (3US$) that offers a diffrent chilean menu every day from monday to saturday. The bread with pebre, first entry and a main course for lunch. In the night some specialities like: chorillanas, pollo al cognac, sandwiches for a very convenient price and of course….very typical.

Also this place exhibits the chilean and world record of horse jump…..awesome!!

Open: Monday to Saturday until 23hrs in the night (great to go for a cheap chilean lunch)

Address: Fray Camilo 340, corner with Marin (yellow house)

In this typical fastfood restaurant which is on the corner of Bustamante street with Mujica you will find the biggest sandwiches till late! We recommend going there after a swinging late night party to finish your night in style! Not only the food, but also the prices are delicious! You can get a huge sandwich (which can be shared by 3 or 4 amigos) of meat with avocado and tomato for only CLP 3,800 (about USD 7). However, the real beauty of this place lies in the fact that it is served by its owner… “El Guatón”.
Seriously, this place is paradise for those who are starving!
