Private house in San Isidro
From the Old town we will drive to the English Quartier of San Isidro and right there we will go to a family house were we will start with the wine tasting and the cooking experience.
About the wine tasting: You will have the chance to learn about the wine regions of Argentina while tasting wines that are not so common to find in local stores. The wines come from small producers and reflect the spirit of the land they were produced.
About the cooking experience: We will introduce to different dishes that are typical from Argentina. There will be a starter, a main course and dessert.
Of course grilling is always present!
For example a summer menu can look like these:
Starter

- Choripan: A chorizo sandwich with chimichurri sauce
Main dish:

- Grilled beef ribs
- Rib eye
Dessert:

The menu varies according to the season of the year. All the chosen products come from local markets and are from small producers and organic, thus assuring the freshness and taste involved in the cooking experience.
