god bless the pampas

i just got back from argentina, or more specifically buenos aires.

before i went, i wasn't very fond of steak.
but oh man, do i like it now.

coincidentally, today someone at the site idlewords.com posted an amazing entry called argentina on two steaks a day that explains why argentine beef is so special.

honestly, it makes me want to head back to argentina tomorrow. i didn't eat enough cow. i probably only ate about 5 steaks during my two-week visit. however, i'm proud to say that i did order some sweetbreads - a giant portion of sweetbreads with fries, onion rings, and watercress - and managed to finish about half of it.

photos from our trip are here on flickr. and there are movies here.

stay tuned for my post about my argentine hotdog - a foot-long monstrosity called a 'super pancho.'
