Thanks for the nice comments – are you planning on visiting Buenos Aires any time soon?

Frank,

I’m all about the dog riding the horse. It’s worth a repeat trip for sure

The last time someone mentioned the cold chain to me was when I worked in a supermarket over 5 years ago… but you have a good point. Although, I think many restaurants are just as risky as street stalls.

I still think I’ll keep playing this game of Russian Roulette… I need this kind of “spice” in my life (you already have yours).

Sorry, terrible pun.

See you at the Cookie event! Looking forward to it…
Alan

Also, one word of advice. The grilled food on the street looks great and smells even better, however meat and a broken cold supply chain is not the best combination. Feel like playing Russian roulette anyone?

Thanks for the nice words again, although this time the article was written by my new blog co-author, Rachel Signer. I added the videos and silly stuff near the end, but the rest is all her work

She also wrote the last article in this blog, on the Cochabamba 444 milonga in San Telmo – so maybe that would interest you too…

Best of luck with your Mataderos guided tours, and if any of my readers take your tour after seeing it mentioned here, ask them to come back and say how the day at the Feria was, in the comments section here!

Saludos,

Alan

Your post captures the fun and flavor of a real Argentinian fair.

And thanks so much for the shout out regarding Ruben and my guided tours there (with folklore and tango participation, if desired).

Saludos!
