  • parsley lots of garlic raw garlic which is just  amazing if you smell the parsley in this country  

  • i remember when i was a little guy parsley used  to taste like parsley this is elixirs from the god

  • amazing huh we should let you know the name of  the restaurant where we're eating this place is  

  • called los platitos it means the little dishes  but the portions here are massive and they are  

  • best known for their beef sandwiches so we ordered  three different kinds here what do we got my dad's

  • middle so we can all share and get a little bit of  water except this guy here he wants his own this  

  • guy here wants his own sam and i will share okay  i'm not hearing anything today today i am mean  

  • and then for the sandwiches we have  chimichurri how can we describe this  

  • everybody everybody knows chimichurri it's  like herbs and spices in oil and vinegar  

  • yeah it has salt and you just put it on  your meat and it transforms it completely  

  • yeah it's a condiment that uh it is made here in  argentina usually it's made in every household  

  • yes the people they make their own and it's a  mixture of herbs and spices and oil and water  

  • i have it right here and uh yeah and it gives the  meat a special flavor oh yeah i'm gonna put lots  

  • on my chorizo people say you shouldn't put  too much because sometimes it can be a bit  

  • spicy but honestly i like flavor so they  try it there you have it to the choripan

  • it's a spot

  • she was pushing for sushi let him know  tell her tell her now who was right one day  

  • my dad should try sushi yes  not in buenos aires listen

  • red blood meat eating argentina you're gonna  have to do a lot of convincing to switch sushi  

  • or something like this okay if i'm hungry enough  and there's nothing around i'll go for it but if  

  • this is around you'll never get me to go forsushi instead of pizza in a million years and  

  • i have nothing against sushi people don't start  screaming against wow you know he's never tried it  

  • also i want to mention the choripan it's something  that you can buy as street food so right now we're  

  • eating on a restaurant that's along the waterfront  and usually along the waterfront you can also find  

  • little food cards where they make this fresh on  the spot they also have the chimichurri the salsa  

  • yoda and all the different toppings so you  can eat it at a restaurant or you can have a  

  • street food either way it's delicious good stuff  huh yeah so we've got sam having the quadrille
