Subject: sandwiches, ochos, alfajores

I am interested in the tango move that may be associated with a particular
name - "alfajor". Benzecry Sabá, in his Glosario Tango Danza Glossary says
that this name is give to a pair of front ochos, which he also says is
called "dieciseis". Robert Farris Thompson, in Tango: The Art History of
Love, appears to give the name to the sandwich or mordida. Is there anyone
on the list who has been taught any step that was introduced as an alfajor?

Thanks!
