Hi, my name is Julia Gonzalez and I welcome you to my channel. If you've never been here
before I love to travel to experience new cultures and amazingly delicious foods.
This week we'll take you on a tour of some of
the best places for steak and Buenos Aires, including the famous Don Julio.
It's no secret that Argentina is the mecca for meat lovers but what makes it so good though?
It could start with the grass-fed pampas cows to the unique beef cuts and special
Asado cooking techniques. Argentinian steak is a work of art from start to finish.
I'd like to share with you some of my favorite spots to enjoy some amazing steak,
starting with LA Brigada, located right across the street from the San Telmo
Market La Brigada, is defined as a classic of Buenos Aires.
You can tell the owner takes pride in not only his restaurant but his country with the.unique decor.
This episode we're just digging into the steak so we're starting here at La Brigada, the steak
is so tender when they bring it out to you they cut it with spoons. That's how tender it is.
This tenderloin was so tender so juicy it wasn't
overcooked it was absolutely perfect. We had an amazing steak at La Brigada.
I also really enjoyed their bread pudding... that's the one! Here's the breakdown of our total
bill. We had one bottle of wine, two empanadas one grilled provoeta, one tenderloin steak
with salad and fries, one bread pudding with a side of ice cream, for a total of sixty dollars.
Now just hop across the street to the San Telmo Market , you'll find another one of my favorites Hierro.
This spot comes with some entertainment because you
can watch everyone working in the kitchen from the seat at the bar.
Hierro, was not one of the restaurants on our list but once we saw the kitchen staff and saw
how much fun they were having we had to check it out, and we're so glad we did.
So for our amazing dinner right here we had one glass of wine, one Cuba Libre, one
steak, one sausage, one salad and one pumpkin side for a total of eighteen dollars.
Next up La Cabrera, we first introduced you to La Cabrera at the flavors of the
the country food festival,where we tried their Chori Pan with chimichurri sauce.
Oh my God, that's really good.
They started us off with these amazing little side dishes that consisted of
mashed potatoes, applesauce, smashed pumpkin and some pickled vegetables.
But tonight we're here for one reason and one reason only the steak....
Delicious
We had four glasses of wine, a very large steak, and a side of salad for a total of
forty dollars. And that was during their the happy hour which is 6 30 P.M to 8 P.M.
Welcome to the Holy Grail of steak!
Don Julio...Don Julio is ranked number 13 out of the world's 50 best restaurants.
So we've been told to go to, Don Julio, go to Don Julio, go to Don Julio. We couldn't get reservations
even a month out, we couldn't get reservations. So the outdoor seating is pretty much first
come, first serve, so if you get here early you can hopefully get a table. And additionally they
serve you Prosecco, Don Julio's Prosecco, while you wait in line, I'm coming here every night.
So if you give yourself enough time and you make reservations, you can go sit, in the inside.
If not you can join us on the outside. Oh we got two different kinds, yeah so this is the
pumpkin, the pumpkin, and cheese. Oh, pumpkin and cheese. And this is the classic beef... all right so...
Good? Yeah, amazing. I mean what else can you expect from Don Julio? All the beef at Don Julio is from
grass-fed Aberdeen Angus and Hereford cattle raised in the countryside outside Buenos Aires.
It is stored in a climate-controlled refrigerator for at least 21 days to reach optimal maturity.
(Thank you, Gracias)
There is no denying the food at Don Julio was amazing... the steak especially.
So let me break down the cost, we had one bottle of Don Julio, the Prosecco it was delicious. Two
empanadas, one side salad one grilled provoleta, one side of mashed potatoes, and one enormous steak.
For a total of sixty dollars.
I hope you enjoyed all the amazing steak that you can find in Buenos Aires Argentina.
