Buenos Aires Street Food Tour in Puerto Madero - Churrasquito

September 23rd, 2008, in the middle of the damn afternoon

After devouring my chorpian I wanted more and my tour of this area of Puerto Madero was just beginning. Rather than eat choripan at every vendor I had to change it up. Next was a the churrasquito, pretty much a hot sliced beef sandwich. Though I’m jumping ahead before my vacio stop, the churrasquito was probably my favorite.

The meat, sliced thin, was still tender and juicy. I had to eat this sandwich in a position knowing that it was going to drip all over and be prepared with extra napkins. The selection of toppings were plentiful and I enjoyed loading up on the chimichurri. Even after eating the choripan, I found this sandwich to be so good that I probably finished it off within 5 minutes… and left a puddle of meat juices on the ground next to the table I was eating at. The cost for such pleasure for my taste buds, 6 pesos. Now I probably should’ve stopped at this point but there was still much more of the stretch to walk. I wasn’t going anywhere and had no immediate plans so it only made sense for me to continue and see what I might come across. I was ultimately led to eat some vacio.
