Ojo de Bife (rib eye)
Entraņa (skirt steak, if Im not mistaken)
Asado de Tira (short ribs)
Vacio (not sure what this is in the USA)
Matambrito (...?)

Have a great trip !!! ^
Vacio (Is like skirt steak, thin, fatty and delicious)
Matambra (rolled stuffed flank steak)

Definately go to a Parilla restaurant and have Asado (individual grill brought to your table with all cuts of beef, chicken, entrails, chorizo and blood sausage. ) There many of these restaurants throughout the city with prices from A$R 16.00 to A$R 25.00 pesos. Try the Malbec wine it is outstanding and cheap. Local wine is inexpensive and good.
Stay out of the tourist places...Expensive is not necessarily better.
Locals do not cook, everybody goes out to eat. And NEVER before 9:00PM
Can you tell I miss the city?
