Palacio del Silpancho

A budget-friendly old-timer on Baptista street in the city center that specializes in silpancho. The menu has only two items: silpancho over rice, and trancapecho, the sandwich version.

This listing covers the old restaurant at No. 434 Baptista street in the city center, between Mayor Rocha and México streets. There is also a branch on América Avenue. The menu is simple: silpancho (rice and potatoes topped with a large thin beef cutlet and a fried egg), available as a half or full portion, and trancapecho, the same fillings in a bread roll. It is served with Huari, Paceña, and Taquiña beers. The dining room is spacious and food comes out quickly. The average spend is about Bs 20–50 per person, and it accepts cash only. Opinions are divided. Some call it the best silpancho they've had locally, while regulars say it's not as good as before and that the cutlet is too processed.
