About perros calientes
A perro caliente is a Venezuelan hot dog, and it is nothing like the ballpark version. The sausage is the starting point. On top goes shredded cabbage and carrot, onion, corn, two sauces, ketchup, mustard, parmesan and a handful of crispy potato sticks. You eat it with both hands and a stack of napkins. It is the thing Venezuelans miss most from home.
