an argentine tradition

---

Not long after moving to Buenos Aires, i had the good fortune to make friends with dos argentinas who invited several of us exchange students to an asada at one of their (parents) homes (it is not uncommon for argentines to live at home into their 30´s). An argentine asada is an all day barbeque where meats are gradually cooked and served over the course of the party. The portenos (residents of BA) are unbelievably friendly, case and point Flor and Anita, our host, held this asada just for us! The spread they laid out was beautiful, as was their home (it is very uncommon to have a yard in central Buenos Aires). The event lasted about 12 hours and at the end when some tango music started playing, the girls, who are professional tango dancers here, just had to dance.

Our hosts, Anita and Flor, professional tango dancers, just couldn´t resist.
