This month we reveal the mistery every traveller wonders about. How do Argentinians live? What´s their traditional food? In “Gastronomy experiences behind closed doors in Buenos Aires” we´ll give you the answer to the questions you ask yourself about in the company of locals enjoying a fun and good moment while trying our delicacies.

---

Food is ready and everything laid on the table. The cook is getting the coal ready to start the fire. The beef is ready to get “its intense tan”.

Everything is ready to begin with the “having dinner at an argentinian family´s home” experience. It´s time to share what we call “the table” and have a close encounter with warmth and affection which are important ingredients in our society. We´ll tempt you with tasty “empanadas” and we´ll teach you how to cook them while having fun in the process,drink a glass of good wine and chat with the cook while he is getting everything ready for the big barbecue and the best beef in the world. For those vegie-lovers we´ll also cook some vegetables on the grill. All this in the middle of fun and relaxed ambience.

Another good choice is to enjoy of a”true Argentinian grill” where we´ll try our “picadas”(different cold cuts,olives,dry sausage and cheese) a good wine and share in the experience of preparing and cooking a delicious “asado”.

As soon as we are welcomed into the house they´ll offer us a tray with different cheeses and cold cuts on it(our picada).

Then the salads will start coming plus the sweetmeats and the insides that locals like so much.All that to work up and appetite. Then we´ll have the big “bife de chorizo”(350grs) a very tender cut that reap up all the applauses.

Every different dish comes along with different kinds of wines specially chosen for the meal.

That´s why to be a part in the process of cooking an asado is a “must” for every visitor who wants to learn about our secrets and traditions.

We are thinking of every kind of visitor to Buenos Aires that´s why we also offer the “Exclusive tour of Buenos Aires parillas(grills)”.
This tour is an opportunity to visit several rastaurants and try our traditional dishes while enjoying of a nice and friendly ambience.Learn about our culture,our customs,the way we live and think.

The top of the cake is a visit to an icecream-shop,because not only is Argentina famous for its food but also for its icecreams. The work of true artisans of this creamy dessert.And we thought why not end this great experience having a good ice-cream?

Let all travellers get their palates ready for a true “FOOD EXPERIENCE” in Buenos Aires.

Every tour must be booked in advance when visiting the “closed doors gastronomy” places and due to the reduced numbers of guests on every tour that make of it a wonderful and truly relaxed experience.

As good Argentinians, we love the tango. Therefore, we want to share this passion with you, our colleagues, because of that we have created a special program dedicated to the Buenos Aires Tango Festival (Tango World Cup).

---

Tango is from Argentina and lives in Buenos Aires. Each year Buenos Aires receives thousands of people, who are passionate, curious and willing to meet the tango, either watching the show or giving the first tango steps following these tunes from the poor neighborhoods. From 2003 Buenos Aires is Buenos Aires Tango Festival venue where creators and performers star in concerts, dancing shows and contests; and where the best world performers participate.

In 2015 the Tango Festival will be conducted from August 12th to 25th at the “Teatro de la Ribera” [Riverbank Theatre] which from 2010 became the house of the tango in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, at the neighborhood of “La Boca” [the mouth].

At the festival two styles are performed: tango scenario and tango salon (ballroom). Tango salon is characterized by the popular tango style where the close embrace cannot be broken or dancers cannot jump. On the other hand, tango scenario is characterized by the free and acrobatic choreographic style, which includes movements not allowed in the salon tango, as jumps and losing the embrace.

In 2014, a new venue was incorporated to the Festival: “El Galpón de La Boca”. A big ongoing dancing room, with live music, DJ sets, dancing exhibitions and classes was run at that place: “La Milonga del Puerto” [the milonga of the port area].

In addition to the above-mentioned Festival, and for those travelers who would like to experience this event from close we have organized a 4-day itinerary which includes: the events organized by the Tango Festival and World Cup according to each passenger’s interest, such as seminars, conferences, contests, milongas, films. The guided walk will finish at a restaurant, where we’ll share a
glimpse of argentine cuisine at your choice.

We invite you to find out about this proposal with the executive staff of Kallpa.

Once again, you can participate of the largest annual tango meeting that celebrates the tradition, promotes the innovation and contributes to the generational and interdisciplinary encounter. This meeting gathers emerging artists, tango historical referents and a multitude of tango lovers and dancing amateurs. Kallpa wants you to become part of it.
