If the over-priced restaurants located on Alicia Moreau de Justo in Puerto Madero aren’t for you, head down towards the park and there you’ll find a stretch of food vendors set up with their own parrilla selling food that doesn’t cost much but will easily fill you up. The staples for most of these street carts are choripan, churrasquito, and vacio. I’ve already once reviewed choripan while in Córdoba and this time decided to explore the street food scene in Buenos Aires. You’ll spend between $2-$3 USD for a sandwich, coupled with a soda and you’re looking at around $5 USD for a meal; beats the 90 pesos you’ll pay for Cabaña Las Lilas’ Baby Beef.

My first stop was for choripan. 4 pesos for a choripan! Most of these places are pretty standard with various toppings but all freshly made. The choripan was as expected, oily with a little spice to it. Add the chimichurri and pepper sauce to it and you don’t really need more. Next up was the churrasquito.
