Road Trips: Guayaquil Ecuador Day 3

October 9 is Independence Day in the city of Guayaquil and the city celebrates. There was a parade, I skipped it. there was a regetta of ships on the river.

As the day progressed I felt an anticipation of the evening. I was told the party begins at eleven at night and keeps going. In my anticipation I asked around to discover typical street food and I was directed to this booth someplace near the downtown area. The lineup of people was a good hint something was special about the food here.

A pig on a bun, roast pork and pork skin, chili sauce and flavor overload, $1.50. If you visit know the sanduche, sandwich is called a Chancho, and this place is Mr Chancho.

This place is so popular they appear to be adding a real restaurant across the street., home of the once smiling pig. I was smiling after the sandwich, thank you Babe.
