The pepito is definitely the king of a Larense night. There are several theories about who or where this simple, but exquisite dish was created. What is not disputed is that it is "Guaro" of pure strain.
This is thanks to its simple preparation: minced beef (beef pulp, tenderloin, shoulder) on half a canilla bread (half baguette), ketchup, mayonnaise and mustard.
In recent years, various variants have emerged thanks to the versatility of the dish and the creativity of the chefs: up to a few more elaborate and better presented pepitos. Even, due to Venezuelan migration, it is being sold in several countries of the continent and even in the Iberian Peninsula (El SospechosoUsa, KurvanFood, KrispyGuasa).
