Food


Today I almost had a Caramel Free Day, but alas, I bought a round double layered biscuit covered in chocolate, and it had caramel in the centre! In the supermercados, Argentines sell milk-caramel by the kilogram, seriously. In tubs (soft) and blocks (hard). Not that I´m complaining---I´ve had caramel on toast every [free] breakfast I´ve had here.

As for beef, I tried to buy some fillet steak today, but the butcher said (according to my limited Spanish) that this was a kak cut and that I should rather have the Angosta cut which is way more tasty.

He was certainly right!


CAPTION: Bus trip meal before the steak and red wine arrived.

Hi Colin, its good to see you are still alive and well over there. You say caramel is big, but I would like to how big the chocolate industry is?

Anyway, enjoy your trip, post some Alpaca/Llama pictures.

Btw... what is the Spanish for kak?
