My favorite food

 One of the most usual comments that people do when I say that I am from Valparaíso is "Oh you must love fish and shellfish", and actually yes, but specially I love fried fish with chips and Chilean salad. One of my best memories of my childhood are the Sunday mornings with my dad, walking down the hill and arriving to the fishing cove and buy the fish recently removed from the sea. The fried fish is made with a piece of fish and a mixture made of flour and beer or wine, and then you fry it. The best way to eat this, is with chips and Chilean salad, this salad is made with tomatoes, onions and coriander.
I love this meal because mix the fried food with all his grease and the freshness of a delicious and colorful salad. Also, this is a very traditional food not only of Chile, also of Valparaíso, my natal city.
The bad news for my and this meal, it is that now, I am vegetarian, so I don´t eat this food anymore. I hope some day I can eat this again. Nothing like eating fish and chips with salad looking to the sea.
