Overview
- Restaurants and sandwich shops across the country are participating today with promotions and special offerings.
- The date coincides with the anniversary of Leguizamón’s death in 2010, which inspired the commemoration.
- Coverage from Tucumán notes that the original shop founded by Leguizamón remains open under the management of his daughter, Soledad.
- Accounts of how the day was established differ, with LA GACETA citing the TV show República de Tucumán and El Litoral pointing to a 2013 local initiative.
- The traditional Tucumán-style sandwich features a soft ‘sanguchero’ roll, thin fried beef cutlets layered ‘staircase’ style, finely shredded lettuce, tomato, house mayo, and optional hot pepper.
