Chilean cuisine:
Chilean cuisine is based on a combination of Spanish cuisine with traditional Chilean ingredients. It is also influenced by other European cuisines, particularly from Germany, and Italy. Due to the long coastline, seafood and fish play an important role in the Chilean cuisine. Many Chilean recipes are enhanced and accompanied by wine as Chile is one of the world's largest wine producers.

Samples of typical Chilean dishes:
Mariscal - cold soup with all kinds of raw seafood
Humitas  - boiled corn leaf rolls filled with seasoned ground corn
