Wow. There’s just so many cool places to go on the internet. I wish I had some place where I could share with the world some of the neat stuff I read there.
Oh, wait.
Of course, I don’t have the list handy, but via Making Light (or one of the sidebars, actually), here’s a lovely little piece on food in Argentina:
Eating steaks in Argentina feels like joining a cult. You find yourself leaning on friends to come visit, and writing YOU JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND in all caps more often than feels comfortable. Argentine beef really is extraordinary.
I’ve been told that I need to visit Argentina for the wines; now it seems like I might stay for the steak, and that’s not even beginning to touch on my intermittent fascination with Jorge Luis Borges. All of which sort of suggests that maybe I should learn Spanish someday.
