  • tour this time in the town of Villa La Angostura where we hit up numerous cafes

  • restaurants breweries and chocolate shops in search of a taste of typical

  • Patagonian cuisine in today's video we'll be eating in places like a cafe

  • shaped like a cuckoo clock a cozy restaurant serving up specialties like

  • deer and trout a local joint best known for its snow topped pasta it's really

  • just cheese a colorful tea room that features savory waffles a local brewery

  • where we learn to toast the proper way and stared people in the eye plus we

  • also sample lots of artisanal chocolates this right here is our Argentine food

  • tour of villa la angostura in Patagonia so we hope you guys are hungry today we

  • are having a brunch this doesn't quite qualify as breakfast anymore because

  • it's 11:30 and we wanted to have a little bite at a place called cuckoo

  • chutes which is pretty cool I think it gets the name cuckoo because the walls

  • are covered in old cuckoo clocks and they have a wonderful menu with cakes

  • and pastry

  • this place is enchanting the coffee is great the cakes on display are

  • mouth-watering and the decor is unique if you only have time to visit one cafe

  • in town we'd suggest this one

  • first up savory this is a Patagonian sandwich with salmon I squeezed a little

  • bit of lemon on top it's got lettuce mayo sesame seeds I'm very so fluffy no

  • Simon tastes wonderful especially with a little bit lemon nice little kick well

  • if I tuck into my dessert over here I'm gonna try the tea honey vanilla the cow

  • I'll say it smells wonderful time across the table the aroma of the vanilla is

  • comforting or cool day like today and how about that dessert so this is

  • basically coconut with dulce de leche looks wonderful I love coconut

  • creaminess of the dulce de leche it's sweet it's decadent it's everything

  • you'd want it to be it's delicious guys I've already tucked into this wonderful

  • apple tart the filling it's not just apples like it has walnuts raisins lots

  • of cinnamon crumble air like an ice cream here reminds me so much

  • of a recipe my mom has she doesn't make it very often she used to make it more

  • often when we lived in South America and we were little but it's so you guys had

  • apple trees in your yard so guys that was a wonderful brunch I should mention

  • the whole restaurant looks like a cuckoo clock

  • it's not just cuckoos on the wall there you have it over my shoulder pretty

  • awesome and we ordered a lot of food you know what I loved about the the

  • architecture of that place it's just how how massive the windows were there's so

  • much natural light peeking in and they always had our really nice terrace if

  • you visit in the summer you can eat outdoors under the umbrellas so the

  • price for that meal was 24 US dollars that being said the sandwich was the

  • most expensive part that was probably half the total just the sandwich so if

  • you just want to have like some hot drinks and some cake really affordable

  • spot really cool environment the staff was friendly took care of us right away

  • so yeah great way to start the morning next up we're going to take you to a

  • nice yellow which is officially our favorite restaurant in Villa La Langosta we

  • ate there almost every day because we just wanted to keep trying all the local

  • patagonian dishes listed on their menu right now we're going to show you the

  • trout trucha what's that you say you're gonna try white wine white wine for the first

  • of all I think this is the first time we've had energy to it Sam never drinks

  • white wine but since its trout I'm so love about that you just feel like a

  • what now

  • it's admiring that bottle of wine yes which is not a white wine no it's not I

  • just couldn't help myself the ball back it's just too delicious guys what can I

  • say so we're trying chacabuco it is from the pepitas los robles we've had really

  • good luck with them yeah we really like their wines so we saw this one picture

  • of a bicycle countryside it's like possibly Mendoza there you go 20:18

  • Malbec and this bodega has been around since 1939 yes who knows maybe we'll get

  • to visit this Sunday yeah we would like to visit bodegas yeah we like to drink

  • wine we like to eat well and we are planning to go to Mendoza we are well

  • lookie here is just arrived best surprise ever we were brought

  • complimentary empanadas whole guys juices just spread everywhere look at

  • this I believe it's kind of neat it's a fried empanada I love the fried

  • exterior mm-hmm the juiciness of the minute the two trout's have arrived at

  • the table I got one with black butter that's like a butter with a bit of

  • vinegar and I got baddest a word that I cannot seem to remember in English at

  • the moment I know what they are I know the word because I have this on pizza

  • all the time so what does it have as a side I'll try

  • to talk about my side I'll mention that yes the trout it does have a bow but

  • they're very like small thin balloons you can eat them with no problem yeah we

  • had a few different options for sides like lots of different potato dishes and

  • solids mm-hmm I went for the mixed match which was

  • mashed potato mashed pumpkin yeah we've really been enjoying our mashed pumpkin

  • so I was like yeah pumpkin for the win good stop huh very nice premium

  • wonderful as well yes I'll be putting down this camera and trying mine

  • it comes in a cheese and cream of mushroom sauce you can see there's

  • copious amount of mushrooms that have been also sliced up on top of there and

  • then was that style potatoes french style potatoes you know I can already

  • tell that the trout is crispy on the outside here so yeah the skin is nice

  • and crispy oh look at this cheese good it is one of their specialties oh my

  • gosh it's just so so tender good it and then on top of that to have a delicious

  • mushroom sauce and all that cheese this is a must try to come the Patagonia you

  • got to try the choke because I think in other parts of Argentina fish isn't as

  • common unless you're by the coast and so there's a lot of Argentina where you

  • can't really order fish mmm so here is on all we've noticed in some other

  • restaurants a trout is on the menu yeah so if you are here try a price point

  • price point that mia right so it came to 25 US dollars full bottle of red wine

  • really good Malbec we had outstanding bread bread we dip

  • free empanadas two dishes of trout which included all the side dishes while we

  • side not to get dessert we think we're gonna maybe pop in and

  • grab some regional chocolate chocolate my gosh we definitely are

  • and now we're going to take you guys for a mid-afternoon treat also known as

  • Midian that a colorful little cafe called LaMotta we stopped at a little

  • cafe that looks amazing as I was saying we stopped by the little cafe to get a

  • bite and this was a happy accident because we actually tried to order a

  • sandwich and they don't have sandwiches but they're like we have savory waffle

  • waffle so we have one with ham on kudoh

  • looks like it's been dried tomatoes and how about that lemonade I got the one

  • with a ginger and mint it's deliciously tart aha

  • when they brought the dessert my jaw was strong the size of the portion this is

  • amazing so this is a big piece of cheesecake with forest fruits

  • thik it's creamier it's really good how's the kind of a whipped consistency

  • and love fruit as well lots of fruit oh it's really tasty you're gonna like it
