While we were planning the trip we bought a book called The Authentic Bars, Cafes and Restaurants in Buenos Aires, and we have been trying to visit some of the places that are profiled. Several of them are pizzarias - pizza is huge here (along with a lot of other Italian things; eveyone says Ciao, for example). This place had the
trademark on old school atmosphere. The slices pictured are fugazza, a traditional pizza with onion (really delicious); faina, more of a snack really, made out of chickpea flour; and a ham and pepper slice. All washed down with a giant bottle of beer, of course.
Happy Birthday, Emily!!
P.S. Yum! Those pizzas look fantastic. I fully expect you guys to recreate the recipes when you get back home.
