Restaurant Name: 348

Ok, here's the dilemma: Who has the better steaks, Brazil or Argentina?

If you have been in Brazil and fell in love with Picanha and all the other great cuts, thinking that nothing can top Brazilian steaks, you might want to try this Argentine restaurant called 348, have a Vacio or a Ojo de Bife, and you might reconsider your preferences...

Favorite Dish: Vacio

Restaurant Name: La Caballeriza

La Calabelleriza is originally Argentine (with a location in Bs As) and serves great steaks and has an extensive wine list. It is centrally located close to Avenida Paulista, and definitely a place for lunch.

This is not a rodizio-style of churrascaria! They have typical Brazilian cuts like picanha, but the main focus is on Argentine/Uruguayan meat such as entrana and ojo de bife for example

Favorite Dish: Entrana with sweet potatos puree
