To end our day on a positive note, yes, Buenos Aires is a good place to be for those who like meat. We ate this evening at called El Potrillo Restaurante, next door to the much more famous Las Lilas. We'd tried both places on our previous visit to Buenos Aires with Greg and June, and agreed we preferred El Petrillo.
We greatly enjoyed the pork ribs, the ribeye steak tasted better than our last try at Argentine beef, and a 2008 Terrazas Riserva Malbec washed it down quite nicely.
These restaurants are near our hotel in Puerto Madera, the renovated dock area. As we left the restaurant and strolled back to the Hilton at 10:00 p.m. the night was just starting for the Argentines. We'll have to try harder tomorrow.
Kathy and Brian
Two retired educators alternating joyfully between seeing the world and enjoying our eight grandchildren (in order of birth), Jake, Avery, Taegan, Lily, Peyton, Riley, Blane, and Jace.
Kathy and Brian met in the clarinet section of the University of California (Santa Barbara) Symphony Orchestra several decades ago.
Brian's Western Canadian roots and Kathy's Colorado ties resulted in their making beautiful music together along with producing a cross-border crop of descendants.
Kathy spent a year studying in Vienna at the Institute for European Studies and the University of Vienna.
Brian started the school band program in Hope, British Columbia, and later became the high school's vice-principal for 6 years and subsequently principal for 15 years before retiring in 2001.
Kathy, in between raising our three children, taught kindergarten and first grade, middle school, and high school - mathematics, computer studies, ESL, and her first love, band, before retiring in 2001.
We enjoy sharing our travel experiences and providing the odd travel tip to friends, relatives, and visitors.
