As a Spanish Spanish speaker I find the Argentinian term for etrecot seems just as…. Argentinian as the literal translation sounds in English.

I’m just not used to seeing entrecot or ojo de costilla (lit eye of rib) described as “ojo de bife” , but that’s a me issue, the translation is absolutely accurate. It’s translating a very specific term used in a specific part of the world. What I don’t understand is why “rib eye” would be correct and “steak eye” considered wrong, they’re both weird.

Bife de chorizo, that’s a term that REALLY throws me.
