Friquitaki

A grilled sandwich on a crusty roll (pan de agua) filled with cabbage, avocado, fried eggs, ham, and cheese. It is famous for a trick where vendors place the ham and cheese to stick out of the edges so it looks overstuffed, while the center is actually hollow. (Duarte and Paris is a chaotic, busy intersection in Santo Domingo known for street vendors).

I am so hungry, I would even go for a Friquitaki from Duarte and Paris.

Friquitaki

A Friquitaki is a cheap street snack sold outside nightclubs to help people sober up. It became legendary at specific local spots (like Erminia or Cambumbo, famous nightlife figures and locations in Santo Domingo) where street-smart locals and partygoers would eat it after a night of heavy drinking. It consists of a roll of water bread (a light, crusty local bread) filled with spicy ground meat, which is usually actually ground chicken innards.

Man, I really want to grab a Friquitaki to settle this drunk.
