places to shop in santiago?

Santiago, the heart of the Country

We have lots of places to shop, depending on what you want to get.

There are a couple of "secret" places that we locals know about, that sell factory over-runs...Dockers, Liz Claibourne etc stuff at deep discounts. Then we have the real stores that sell top of the line stuff.

Cigars? Depends. The Nacional Supermarket has a nice selection and regular retail prices. There are a few places you could go to where you can get good cigars at a good price. For example the Supermercado Central, in back of the Nacional, also has cigars at a better price, but not so many. If you e-mail me, I can tell you more about this.

There is a Casa de Arte in the center of town.

There are five or six nice places to eat, depending on your tastes.

Nuvo Cuisine: Maroma
French: El Caf?
Italian: {Secret place, e-mail for info}
International: Cosa Nostra
Beef: Nano's or La Parrillita or Rancho Luna Steak House
Chinese: Two or three places. Pez Dorada, Jade Express, Cafe Caribe

Good Luck,

You gotta e-mail me

Secret means secret..

Cofres? is about 45 minutes to an hour from Santiago, and about another 10 - 15 minutes to the center of town.

YOu go right as you leave Cofres?, and left again when the road comes down to the Highway #1. You enter Santiago from the West. Go straight on that road, and you pass Hache-interesting place to window shop, and they have a nice wine section. Further on that same road (Estrella Sadhal?) you come to Nacional Super Market or Supermercado Central....
