About Food in Buenos Aires
Already scared/excited about eating meat in infinite quantities from breakfast to dinner? Though Argentina still holds the image of a carnivorous country, the recent rise of organic food and global cuisines has brought diversity to many restaurants in the city. Another trend is 'puertas cerradas' - closed-door restaurants - offers even more options for exquisite food lovers.
All food goes along with red and white wines from Mendoza region. Additionally, you might try a rose wine, that is a new trend as well.
In the morning don't miss traditional coffee with 3 medialunas served in each and every place.
What to Eat?
After you are done with stakes, give a chance to empanadas (most of them contain meat too), traditional pizzas (different from Italians) and locro - best dish in a humid winter period. Additionally, visit Armenian, Corean, Peruvian and Chinese restaurants, and you won't regret.
