A Side of Fries, Argentine-style

Argentina knows how to turn good food into an amazing, unforgettable meal. Traditionally, French fries were Argentina's answer to the homemade side dish at family meals. Today, they are a staple on trendy menus across the country. Order fries in Argentina, and get ready to be blown away by the country's take on this French classic.

One thing sets Argentine fries apart: seasoning. Chefs here fry the potato until it's golden brown and then sprinkle it with parsley and garlic. Bursting with flavor, these fries are crying out to sit beside a juicy steak, one of our favorite go-to meals in Buenos Aires. You can change it up by adding chimichurri sauce or throw some eggs and cheese into the mix. We're hooked.
