Buenos Aires anymore yeah it goes via Santiago mm-hmm and in Santiago we had to get off the plane and wait till they cleaned it and board again and you know that the waste of time right so finally I just made it to the airport about an hour ago and I was starving because I don't like plane food that's the to feed you but I it's like to kill you so I have told this guy before I left Toronto expect

tomorrow keep in touch because you're gonna be amazed what we can put away hey guys it's night time we are hungry Potter appetites and we're heading to one of our favourite steak houses in buenos aires called parrilla peña and all what it's a bridge opinion opinion yeah this is a steak house family steak house it's nothing really extremely fancy but it is a really good place to eat asado parrilla peña we've been there a couple of times before one of the coolest things is that this place was recommended to us a few years ago by a local so I love that it's yeah just like you said it's a family type of place non-pretentious the focus is on the food can be down there and we go there every time we're in the city of buenos aires is unless good prices good portions yeah and good quality so one more Kenyatta exactly let's go have a bite now for starters getting some banana these are free of charge yes these look really good ground beef green olives the taste yeah YUM some people love olives others ate them I think they're great an empanada yeah it's like the polarizing ingredient they're very good excellent very fresh very peaceful you know just to open up the appetite exactly is an entree we already ordered the steak yeah and the asado I'm gonna have some salad and some Malbec the wine so this is kind of preferred Islamic what is coming okay and what coming is really good Rebecca so guys the company all the needs that he ordered the complete salad which has way too many to list them all but I do see like lettuce potato carrots tomato we have eggs we have celery it's good to get the greens in before the meat because then there's no room how can we come I'm waiting for my meat yeah it's not I feel like I'm a rabbit you know should eating grass right next to this she'll be coming any minute now yeah right this place it's 8:20 and it's already starting to feel it you know people are coming in like crazy yeah so when you see traffic like this yeah that means that place is good that's good yeah they keep coming in and they keep them in if you get here by 9:30 forget it you won't have any room on you line up outside yeah that's it tea thank you you come from North America from whatever it is that you come from come here early yeah around from 8:00 8:15 yeah you'll find a spot for supper yeah and guys this place hasn't changed since we've been here it's just as good it's just it's got that classic feel that we have these are the typical Buenos Aires places that they they look like like this forever you're gonna come in here at 40 years from now and they still want to look the same yeah these are traditional places where you eat good and the owners are not really worried about before making it fancy they concentrate on whatever it is that they give you people indeed yeah and that's a good amount good quality and people just coming back in yeah nobody cares about the pictures on the walls or stuff like that yeah you care about time to begin to filming so we ordered two cuts of meat horses are enormous so we're sharing it among station yeah we have the Peabody Tereza which is one of the most famous cuts using death and it's just unbelievable it's so juicy guys like lard it's just unbelievable this place is still so my favorite Parisian house I can clean up no one's did home - yeah maybe no one ever will decent people not because I was born in Argentina if you haven't tried Argentinian beef before your way in from Uruguay they have very good speed same like in Argentina we're not going to leave them out because they're good if you haven't tried the beef in this land you haven't tried anything yet nothing compared in the flavor of this beef these are animals that are raised grazing natural grasses and the flavor of the beef is something that you're not going to find any words in the world it only has salt and pepper they are famous for that and it's not just a cliche is the truth when you come here and you taste it it's it's a flavor that it cannot be reproduced with any spices with any sauce with any gravy with nothing it's a natural taste that's in the in the in the meat you know and it cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world so come now you know people come to Argentina coming here says the origins I'm in the gringos and the great desert us here I seem to be the only one who's actually attacking it a little something that you guys can share and then it arrives and it's a beast and a piece of desert our homemade tiramisu it's no good it's not like the lights on the flavor bit of cinnamon and cocoa powder on top there's so much cream do you have a great burden on your shoulders alright guys so we are back at home now back in the apartment that was a wonderful first dinner first barbecue back in Argentina how did you enjoy it oh it was amazing the that meat that we had it was just out of this world it's Argentinean beef your way and beef also I always say the people from your way they have a pretty good meat in the same like in Argentina so I always they always go together you know but this is something that you're not going to find any words in the world you know it's the flavor of this beef is just yeah to describe it you know yeah I got to taste it yourself yeah I'm a little bit still from I sister right this morning after a 14-hour flight and I'm still like I know I feel like I'm in the air I don't lag and kind of I'm not in my hundred percent capability so even to eat I was a little bit you know slow but yeah we took care of that one we ordered and not enough one portion for each of the three of us but we ordered for two people and that was more than enough because we almost we couldn't even finish we had to like push ourselves to try and finish everything in front of us because it was so much food I'm price wise well we're talking about the meal the total was 46 US dollars right so if you take that and you divided by three it's basically 15 u.s. dollar person and so that included the complimentary bread the empanadas yeah a bottle of reserved Malbec a major brand trek PJ yeah two cuts of meat two great cuts of meat this out an awesome solid and it huge slab of dessert to hear tiramisu they brought up yesterday's so even for three people that dessert was yeah there's no way one person should order a dessert for themselves because it yeah if you go to a place like this to this don't forget that here in Argentina the the portions are humongous yeah I mean we are not talking about European sizes or you know some other countries here when they they serve you they serve you in such an amount that how do I finish these so always be cautious if you order as always the waiter is this enough for two and they're going to tell you as a portion that is enough for two people so so you don't leave anything behind you know like you ordered to order and then you cannot finish it so that's that's the thing that you have to always be aware of when you come to this to this country but they eat they eat good everything is tasty but the portions are huge you know yeah so that's something you you need to be yeah so another fantastic meal we also have a fun schedule tomorrow what's yeah we're planning to go in search or what's been named the best milanesa in the whole city a super meanin asa that like overflows from a plate yeah so we're gonna track that place down that's the plan yeah now that we've got full bellies we're gonna get a good night's rest yeah maybe maybe a cafe con leche in the morning oh that's a must yeah Cafe con Leche when Osiris you need to try it is the best coffee Kaka fail there that you can get you know I mean I consider it one of the best around the world because I have tasted coffee everywhere and coffees bitter usually here is the coffees got an aroma so sweet that is is it or not and they bring it with those maybe as Lunas they're like a smaller butter croissant yeah they usually bring you three every time you order a cafe au lait they bring any croissant to to be part of that that breakfast yeah oh my oh my so that's a good breakfast yeah yeah tomorrow tomorrow should be an
