First Food Fair of the Season

One fun feature of spring and summer in Buenos Aires is the number of street fairs that take place on weekends. Sometimes they are around regions of the country, or themes such as culture or types of music. But the overarching theme is food!

Yesterday, what they called a “Gourmet Fair” took place near Plaza San Martin, and Venetia and I went along to enjoy this first food fair of the season. Honestly, I wouldn’t have called it gourmet, but they did have some nice things. As usual, I went straight for the sweet stuff! I bought something called cane honey tablet. It looked and felt like the tablet we have in Scotland, except that instead of condensed milk, this one was made from honey. That suited my vegan food choices, but it was toooooooo sweet, even for me!

Anyway, here are a few pictures of the fair, us and the honey tablet.
