In the first half of the 20th century, the business of shucos began in the vicinity of Liceo Guatemala and the Chamber of Commerce.
As young employees in the area invited everyone passing by to stop for a moment and eat these shucos.
An interesting cart
Francisco Ramos was the one who set up a hot dog cart named "El Chino". Fortunately, his business began to prosper effectively and expanded to the corner of Liceo Guatemala.
At the end of the school day, students hurried to buy their shucos, further spreading the popularity of this food.
Something dirty
It is believed that the name shucos comes from the colloquial meaning of "dirty".
Since it was a name that consumers gave to the food because it was street food.
Some believe that it was the students of Liceo Guatemala who nicknamed the shucos this way.
