El Hoyo
Santiago, Chile
The read// why locals go
El Hoyo has been feeding the Yungay barrio from San Vicente since 1912, and Santiago has changed rather more than the restaurant has. The cooking is Chilean working-class food in its original register — cazuela, porotos granados, charquicán — served at midday to a room that mixes tradesmen with the artists and writers Yungay has drawn in more recently. Mains around 4,500 CLP. Over a century in, it remains the reference point people argue from when they argue about traditional Chilean cooking in this city, which is a heavier thing to carry than any rating.
