ASAAADO! No-one barbecues like the Argentinians. At least they throw in a few veggies these days. Thanks for a spectacular feast @bodegahcanale #guest.

Who would have thought to find a cheese-focused restaurant slap in the middle of Patagonia? Not only that but the chef at @latoscanarestaurante makes his own. Also the grilled pork topped with cheese and homemade crisps was just 💥💥💥. (They of course also had steak. OF COURSE) #guest.
