Jamon crudo!!

We just made one of the best discoveries yet!  And it's right around the corner from our apartment!  It's a utopia of cured, smoked, and roasted meats, rounds, wedges and wheels of cheeses, savory pies and pasteries, cases of prepared antipasti and all sorts of finger foods!  Eureka!  
It seems that Argentines love cheese and charcuterie as much as we do.  They've even coined a term for a meal of it - picada, which refers to little nibbles.   



Super friendly and quick with the samples, even shoving a whole empanada into my hand for us to try, we decided on a 100 g of everything.  Not really.  But close.

  2. It pleases me that five of your first six posts involve food.
