Feast on steak, wine and empanadas
In Buenos Aires, Argentina
Buenos Aires is a food lover's dream, and eating well here is gloriously affordable. The star is the parrilla (steakhouse), where a superb cut of Argentine beef with a glass of Malbec costs a fraction of the price it would in Europe, a genuine must-do. Beyond steak, feast on empanadas, choripán, and the city's beloved Italian-influenced pizza and pasta, all cheap and delicious. Finish with dulce de leche in everything. Eat where the locals eat, at bodegones and parrillas away from the tourist spots, for the best value. We'll point you to the dishes to try and how to enjoy a proper asado affordably.
