1. Empanadas
Doughy pockets whose style of crimped edging denotes the filling. A favorite is chopped steak with potato and boiled egg. Many steakhouses serve them as appetizers.
2. Choripán
This sandwich is a staple at soccer matches. It comprises a grilled pork sausage that’s sliced in half, tucked inside a bread roll and slathered in spicy chimichurri sauce. Try a gourmet version at fast food joint Chori.
3. Helado
With so many Argentines having Italian heritage, it’s no surprise Buenos Aires has such great gelato-style ice cream. Sample some at Heladería Scannapieco.
