Two-Handed Crispy Fried Chicken Sandwiches

If there is any edible in the world that can be accused of lust, it is fried chicken. You have to be very frigid not to take pleasure in its crunch, greasiness, and juices, and eating it too often falls squarely into the category of mortal sin. For those who want to succumb to temptation and are not afraid of burning in hell, today we bring it in a double sandwich version.

One of our sandwiches comes from some border territory between the United States and Mexico. The other, from the streets of any Indian city. But both are made in two of our favorite places in Barcelona’s Raval, Gringa and Mirch, and they are incredibly good. If you want to see how their owners, Gastón Gabrielli and Ivan Surinder prepare them, watch the video above.

Having health insurance is a good complement to public health if we want to have the best possible assistance, for ourselves and our family, at any time and in the event of any unforeseen health that may arise. And it has many advantages. Here are the top ten benefits of having health insurance.

The top 10 advantages of having health insurance

  1. Free choice of medical center and specialist
    The first benefit of health insurance is the free choice of the medical center and specialist for any situation. Hiring health insurance gives us the possibility to choose, from a wide medical group, the center and the specialist we want, either because it offers us confidence, because of its prestige, because of the proximity of home or work…. And if we have any doubts, we can request a second medical opinion for the diagnosis of a disease or for surgical interventions, which gives us extra peace of mind.
  2. Innovative and quality medical treatments
    The next advantage of having health insurance is that private healthcare offers a quality service, with highly trained professionals and with access to state-of-the-art treatments, equipment and techniques and a wide variety of complementary therapeutic options.

  1. Reduced waiting times
    One of the most valued advantages of health insurance is that it offers a reduction in time and waiting lists when performing diagnostic tests and having the results available (in private health the average is 8 days compared to 47 in public health). In addition, when there is a specific health problem, it allows us to directly request an appointment with the specialist of our choice, without having to go to the family doctor.

Waiting times in health insurance emergency services are also reduced, since the waiting rooms are not so crowded and we can receive the care we need sooner.

  1. Flexibility and comfort
    The extensive medical chart of health insurance offers great flexibility of schedules that facilitates compatibility with work and personal life. And when it is not possible or not really necessary to go to the medical center or consultation, we have at our disposal 24-hour telephone assistance services, assistance through mobile app, home doctor and emergency services so that we can consult any questions related to diseases, treatments, etc. Even, depending on the policy, many insurances have psychological and pediatric telephone counseling.

  1. Different modalities and benefits
    Another of the clear advantages of health insurance is that it can be adapted to what you really need because it allows you to choose between different modalities and benefits according to your personal and family situation, budget, etc. In addition, if you are self-employed, you have tax advantages.
  2. More comfortable hospitalization
    In case you need hospitalization, another benefit of health insurance is that having insurance allows you to have your own private room with an additional bed so that a companion can help you in the most comfortable way, which it offers us more peace of mind and can facilitate recovery.
  3. National and international coverage
    If you need it and you are traveling, with health insurance you can go to centers throughout the country. In addition, many include international coverage, which offers assistance in practically any part of the world against public health, which is offered only in countries associated with the European Health Card.

  1. Compatibility with public health
    Having private health insurance does not prevent access to public health. If at any time you want to go to a public health center for any consultation, treatment or hospitalization, you can arrange it without any problem.
  2. Prevention coverage
    Medical insurance, in addition to treatments, offers prevention coverage, such as checkups and preventive tests for the early detection of health problems. And preventive medicine is important, because it can prevent the onset and spread of disease and reduce the need for more costly treatments and other health actions.
  3. Other coverage
    The last benefit of health insurance is that depending on the modality contracted in your insurance, you also have other coverage, such as dental insurance, with a wide variety of services included, and well-being services, such as psychology, speech therapy, acupuncture, physiotherapy, rehabilitation…

Having an agile and quality healthcare offers a lot of peace of mind when we want to protect our health and that of the whole family, but it is important to know that not all health insurance is the same.
