  • monster tree yeah this one would be a couple of hundred years old I think and

  • has probably seen Argentina's independence from Spain and these three

  • was probably alive in the 1810 so it's something that you don't see every day

  • and its really worth your time to come and visit if you are in Buenos Aires because

  • see anything like this any other world in the world in alright yeah huge

  • so our next stop on this very rainy day El Ateneo grand splendid which

  • has just been voted one of the most beautiful book stores in the whole world

  • are on the third floor yes not counting the basement Wow is

  • impressive sure it really is it's kind of like a cream-colored

  • building with lots of gold detailing a beautiful ceiling so yeah they sell

  • here we are

  • this was the last cut aboard this ship his name was alum possum

  • a Bobby deep we're gonna lose it we're gonna lose you so we are all aboard now

  • the ship opened shortly after 11 a.m. and we just had to pay 20 business to

  • get on board it's a contribution of donation which is the equivalent of less

  • than 50 cents so it's a very affordable attraction here in puerto madero and

  • yeah super interesting you're enjoying it I'm enjoying it yeah it's a nice

  • piece of Argentinian naval history this is a school ship of the Argentinian Navy

  • it was built in the late 1800s and it sell the oceans of the world till the

  • 1930s roughly it's an instruction ship like you know this is what the students

  • all over the world is a beautiful boat it's built solid like amazing of steel

  • and heavy woods and nice because you could see how they used to build in

  • those days everything is is done the metal work is all done rough you know

  • like I mean it's nothing is it's perfect and to smoothness like you would have

  • today you know with all the modern machinery this was done with a hammer

  • sweat and tears I guess

  • they have plenty of this in the shelf on the wall everywhere so we're having

  • we're having Argentine parrilla asado yeah yeah so our plan initially was CEO

  • bachelor favorite which is called buddied up in yeah don't we got there

  • and there's a big notice saying that their clothes will hold on because it's

  • summer vacations and they banished from January so then we found

  • like a little newspaper stand asked for a recommendation someone told us about

  • this place that's called Nina Bonita and any kind of like my visa slash will they

  • go on in terms of the style what do we have coming we have a similar tip which

  • here in Argentina they will deflate chorizo

  • that's our it's really good tender that my wife is going to have a steak if at

  • the Long Room which is the filet mignon someone is going to have a state matter

  • of vasile it's a cut from this part of the cow you know like at the flank I'm

  • gonna have a sausage and we're gonna have a french fries and mixed salad I

  • can with eggs complete and we have a nice MODOK wine yeah we're having a

  • extremely good Malbec baking Kimura and we're gonna order a cheaper wine but the

  • waitress told Sam well if you order that cheap wine I'm going to slap you up so

  • it's a lot of meat though you don't need the big enough for it is here we've dug

  • right in so already what you see on our plates is a fraction

  • of what initially arrived here but it is so good I got the beef or the Lomo look

  • at this so juicy at my 17 you honestly don't even need any chimichurri for it

  • it's so flavorful on its own I just put a tiny bit of salt

  • a very pleasant surprise we're stopped there how's yours mine just look at that

  • look at that behemoth yeah and I already I have already taken a piece out of it

  • yeah half of it is gone Ava's gone but the quality of this meat here is number

  • one the flavor is an equal anywhere in the world if you want real good meat

  • Argentina Uruguay you cannot get anything better than that is the way the

  • cows are raised here and the the grasses they eat in the Pampas it's a special

  • type of grass that gives the the the meat that that specific flavor you know

  • it only has a little bit of salt and that's all you need ready yes after all

  • that meat we're just sitting here sweating from the effort to consume all

  • of beef so what we did and what can we tell you

  • the words are not enough to describe the quality of this meal you people have to

  • come over try it and then you tell me and decide for yourself that's the best

  • we can do we are cooling down with some ice cream this

  • masterpiece right here this is a waffle cone with the classic blue salinity and

  • coconut with dulce de leche which it's the coconut one that's the flavor that
