My god, the food.


So, one of my regrets so far is that I haven't taken pictures of all the amazing stuff I've eaten. I honestly cannot describe how good the steak is here. The night before this picture was taken, I ate the BEST filet mignon ever created by god. It's called bife de lomo here, and for 18 pesos (roughly 9 dollars) I had a steak as thick as my fist and the size of 3/4 of the plate (and this was the small one!). I'll take a picture of the next one I eat.

Anyway, after eating a steak so massive, I had a serious beef hangover. I decided to try a vegetale parilla (grilled vegetables) and here's what they brought. It was absolutely incredible and cost about $4. Oh, and the red wine is dirt cheap here too and absolutely incredible. A bottle of wine at a restaurant might go for 18 pesos (less than $10) so, suffice it to say that I've been enjoying mas vino tinto (much red wine).
