Frank and his staff could not have made our experience more enjoyable. The food and wine was great but we also learned so much about the Argentine way of life that we will always remember
Dear Joel,
Thank you for the kind words and for a lovely day. I had fun showing you the neighborhood and talking about Argentina all over some great food and wine.
Our "tour" with Frank was just great! It was very interesting visiting different culinary shops and we loved the information about the neighbor hood, including street art, along the way. The food at the asado was delicious. The beef steak was the best I've ever had! Highly recommend.
Dear LOMOH,
I'm so glad you enjoyed the tour and the steak! I also had a great time showing off my neighborhood and sharing a wonderful afternoon of steak, wine, dessert and conversation al fresco. My grill master's ego is certainly getting a boost from all of the consistent praise he receives!
My 3rd visit to Buenos Aires is just a one day-one night stop but felt like I lived there. I learned a lot not just about Asado but also about graffiti, mate, meat cuts, knife, wine and a lot more. Highly recommended!
Any questions I have, Frank and Agustin gladly answered. Well worth our time.
Thank you very much.
Dear Nelia,
I'm so glad you enjoyed the tour. Agustin and I also enjoyed ourselves. Thank you for a lovely afternoon of conversation over wine and some fantastic food!
If you want to know more about Asado - just go to AsadoAdventure. Asado is very popular in Argentina and you have a chance to find the answers to almost all your "whys". Brilliant house, perfect meet and amazing company to chat. Highly recommend!
Dear Albuba,
Thank you so much for leaving such a nice review! We also had a great time enjoying your company over some fantastic food. I'm glad you felt comfortable in my home and we were able to satisfy your curiosity!
We had the privilege of being hosted by Frank for our entire day.
If you are looking for a "tourist food tour" type of activity, try one of the other commercial tourism companies. This is an inclusive, hands-on and educational cultural and culinary experience that provides a deeper understanding of Argentine asado traditions.
The tour started with a warm welcome into a beautiful home and an introduction to the day. We were educated on techniques for setting and lighting the coals in Frank's amazing Asado. A beatifully clean and purpose built work of structural art in the home courtyard garden.
Salad and condiment preparations were made in the stunning open plan kitchen, (under the instruction of our expert chef Max and Frank), then off we went on our food gathering walk through one of the most stunning areas of Palermo.
Frank's knowledge of what the area has to offer (including the street art talent) and his relationships with the local business made the morning shopping tour very special.
Back at the house after collecting our meat, bread & wine, we were shown how to create traditional and "contemporary Palermo" asado salads.
Appertisers and a Fernet y Cola started the degustation, followed by an expertly cooked selection of fresh, premium meats, salads and amazing Argentine red wine.
Frank is a very relaxed and affable host, with great wit and knowledge, creating a great afternoon of laughs and good conversation.
Our meal was completed with a fantastic local variation to the famous Yerba Maté, with more than enough of the afternoon left to stroll around the Palermo boutique shops and craft beer bars.
Frank's Asado Adventure is definitely a highlight of our South American holiday.
