The completo was brought to Chile by Eduardo Bahamondes, he then opened a restaurant in Santiago’s historic centre called Quick Lunch Bahamondes where he began to introduce the Chilean people to the hot dog. As people didn’t like the original preparation, he added other ingredients like tomato or avocado, that eventually ends to be accepted by the public.
