Barbequed food

Viandas Asadas

Barbequed food

On the Holy week verbena, the similarity and difference of some mexican and guatemalean food caught my attention.

At a start, in Guatemala this kind of fast food is called "Refacciones" a term that i as mexican associate more with car fix parts. Here in Mexico que called them "tentempi" or "refrigerio" o algunas "lonche" a near term to the english lunch.

Back on topic, what we Mexican call "Torta de Pollo" in guatemala is "Pan con Pollo" a piece of bread with chicken inside. wel the breads are different, but still is basically the same.

Other is the meat from the photo, over there is sold as "Tortilla con carne", that is basically the same as "Tacos de Carne" in Mexico, but well, the thing is even when its basically the same, a tortilla and a piece of meat, since the taco is folded, and here they are given kind of apart, its a different thing.

Interesting.
