Not being able to completely avoid the clichs of tango and gauchos, Anthony Bourdains stay in Argentina was a pretty good characterization of the country.
Being argentinian and residing in Buenos Aires (portea would be the local term for it) , I have to say that I would have liked him to tour a little more around the city. But I guess that Im partially influenced by the tendency to over idolize the city of Buenos Aires that us porteos have.
The quest for the right empanada, the walks on the glaciers with a couple of gauchos and Tonys introduction to the mate were interesting portraits of the country. There was still many other cities to see, north and south. A road trip to Mar del Plata, where Tony could take a picture with the seawolfs that guard the coast would have been great. But I digress.
Every time this particular episode finishes I cant help the feeling that Argentina may not be one of Tonys favourite places. Maybe it will take a second trip to change his mind. Argentina is more of an adquired taste.moreless

- After the scene where the cowboys are preparing the rabbit and everyone is moving outside, Tony hums a song. This song is the TV theme song for Rawhide, a famous 1960's Western.
