ARGENTINIAN FOOD TOUR: Eating PARRILLA + PASTA + PIZZA in Esquel, Chubut, Argentina
643Come join us for an Argentinian food tour as we head all over Esquel, Chubut to eat at different restaurants specializing in Argentine parrilla, pasta and pizza in Argentina. Even though Esquel is known more for hiking and day-trips to National Parks you can find some fantastic Argentine food at various restaurants in town. Our first stop in town was at De Maria, a local parrilla, where we tried eating bife de chorizo, vacio along with beetroot salad and red wine. Our next stop on our Argentine food tour was at a restaurant called Don Chiquino that specializes in Patagonian pastas. We ended up having Sorrentinos with walnuts, ricotta and mushrooms along with lasagna including Patagonian lamb. Our favorite part about this restaurant was the amazing collection of items and trinkets giving it a bodegon feel. Our final restaurant in Esquel, a pizzeria called Fitzroya where we drank old fashioned style coke along with a Napolitana pizza. If we do another Argentina food tour what would you like us to show you next time?

ARGENTINIAN FOOD TOUR: Eating PARRILLA + PASTA + PIZZA in Esquel, Chubut, Argentina:
Hey guys! We are Samuel and Audrey, a travel vlogging couple from Canada. In this travel channel we share our travel and food vlogs while touring the world.
We had the privilege of traveling around Argentina for nearly 3 months from January- April 2019 on a trip covering a large section of the country.
We kicked things off with several days in Buenos Aires where we were joined by Audrey's parents eating and sightseeing around some of our favourite neighbourhoods in the city. We then flew from Buenos Aires to Cordoba where we spent a couple of weeks in the Sierras of Cordoba.
From Cordoba, we then travelled a considerable distance on an overnight bus to Mar Del Plata just in time for a special food festival called Feria Masticar featuring the best of Argentine food and wine. We spent several days enjoying beaches and seafood before heading south to Patagonia to visit the province of Chubut.
While on the Atlantic side of Chubut we visited Puerto Madryn, Peninsula Valdes, Trelew, Gaiman and Dolavon. To summarize our time in this area, we had incredibly close encounters with wildlife including penguins, sea lions and guanacos while also experiencing Welsh culture in Argentina.
Our time in Patagonia continued as we headed from east to west trading more barren landscapes for thick forests, impressive mountains and magnificent lakes. We spent significant time in both Esquel and El Bolson with day trips to visit Trevelin, Parque Nacional Los Alerces, Cholila and Lago Puelo. Highlights included sailing, hiking, riding vintage trains and partaking in the national asado festival.
We finished visiting Patagonia with time spent in Villa La Angostura, San Martin De Los Andes and Bariloche where we enjoyed more stunning scenery and hiking. On our way back to Buenos Aires, we took the Tren Patagonia to Las Grutas before meeting up with Audrey's dad again.
To finish off our trip in Argentina, we spent more time in the capital and later Mendoza where we got to experience wine tourism to its fullest extent. Overall, we had an amazing time travelling around Argentina having only scratched the surface of this vast and diverse country.
Overall our Argentina travel series explores cities, small towns that are off-the-beaten-path, and scenic attractions with a strong emphasis on Argentina cuisine and local culture.
