  • About

This sandwich, the “little goat,” originally from Uruguay, is multilayered and hearty. It gained popularity in Valencia through cultural exchange and immigration, though it also fit into an existing fondness for hefty and diverse bocadillos one might enjoy during the esmorzaret, the midmorning refueling. The main meat layer can be beef, pork, even chicken, but never goat.
