Yesterday I went to an early evening event of InterNations, which involved meeting about a dozen people and sitting outside on the terrace at La Biela. It’s a lovely way to spend a summer evening.

But when it was over, it was about 8 pm and I didn’t feel like going home to cook a meal. So I walked down the street to Clark’s, one of the oldest parillas in the area.

Just look at this steak! This was what they call a “half portion” — can you imagine what the full-size looks like? I cut it in two and brought half home for today’s lunch — which is a good thing because I’m going out tonight with another group and dinner will be empanadas and other picadas (snack foods). It’s all go in Buenos Aires!
