THE BEST FOOD - CABANA LAS LILAS

The bridge is actually a memorial to woman....but is supposed to remind you of a woman Tangoing. i don't think it is actually called "Tango bridge" I just call it that. :-)

I had one of the best meals ever. The food in Argentina is sooooo good and they feed you so much! When you sit down they fill the table with all kinds of food. The best are the cheese rolls, I think they have a different name than cheese rolls but they are soooo good. Then there is a platter of roasted vegetables and fresh mozzarella and other breads and a small cup of chicken broth. Then you order food for dinner. Asmelid and I shared a fried Provelone Cheese, it is cut about 1 to 1.5 inches thick and fried. Then I had tenderloin !!! Thank goodness I squeezed in a 30 minute workout before dinner....but in the end I am not sure how much help it was. We shared a homemade lemon sorbet...it was so wonderfully tart...yum.

They own their own beef cattle. Hmmmm....I wonder if Dean sells bull semen to them :-)

So the steaks come out with these cute little cows stuck in them. Mine was the pink cow and loosely translated means something like, "I am at the perfect point"...Asmelide who asked for hers cooked medium well was loosey translate, "I am a little over cooked" or "I am toasted"
