Pairing Pastel de Choclo correctly — a note on mote con huesillo peach drink
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Pastel de Choclo. I ordered it with mote con huesillo peach drink and the smoky and herbal elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. shellfish from Patagonia in particular became more prominent in a good way.
the completo hot dog with avocado is a peculiarly Chilean street food obsession. The a Patagonian lamb restaurant is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Pastel de Choclo with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
