Did somebody say meat? Argentina...the home of Messi and great steaks with chimichurri, how can I resist Rincon De BA?
Located along Spring Mountain somewhere in Chinatown, you'll find this unassuming place. It's in the same complex as Cafe de Japon and Cathay House. They have a few tables and there was only 1 server when we went here - he did try his best to provide good service to all the diners so I can't fault him for that.
We were given a basket of bread with an amazing cup of chimuchurri on the side. That's it, end of review!
But wait, I still have to share the other fantastic parts of the meal. We had the empanadas (a beef, a chicken and a spinach) which were yummy. I liked the chicken empanada the most. The crust wasn't as crisp as the Spanish empanadas I'm used to but the filling was great. We also got the parrillada Martin Fierro (short ribs, filet mignon, skirt steak and flap meat) with a side of papas fritas de provenzal (garlic fries). The meats were so tender, juicy and packed with flavor then dip it in chimichurri? Oh my goodness! Intense tastebud experience! The papas fritas were warm, crisp and garlicky.
For dessert I finished a mixto flan by myself. The syrupy flan kind of looks strange but it's good. It came with a side of crema chantilli and dulce de leche. Eating the flan wih the dulce de leche was divine!
This Real Madrid fan gives Rincon De Buenos Aires 5 stars (even though Messi's our rival)!
