There is a lot to eat in Argentina, but the only real specialty is grilled meat (asado), as shown in the picture, which I took in Argentina, authentic local grilled meat. If you're in Buenos Aires, there are three types of food: European food (pizza, sandwiches, burgers), Arabic food (empanada, chicken tacos) and Chinese food (noodles, seafood over rice, etc.). Argentinians also love to eat a type of ham called jamon, but it's not an Argentine specialty, it's a specialty of its ancestor, Spain.
