Panchuker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Panchuker Store in the street.

A Panchuker (also Panchuque, Pancho chino) is an Argentine hot snack that can be bought near some train stations and in some places of heavy pedestrian transit. It consists of a sausage covered with a waffle-like pastry, and has a stick in it (like a corn dog) so that it can be easily consumed. Some variations may be found in Uruguay and other South American countries.

Generally they are offered as low-price fast food and can only be seen at certain provinces of the inner country, like La Plata, Belgrano, Villa Albertina, Cipoletti, and in Buenos Aires they can be found in Barrio Chino. They are particularly popular in the province of Tucumán.[1]
