Tango, Terma and Tongue
A few days ago, my mom's friend from the pool that she swims at, invited my mom and I to go to tango lessons with her and her daughter (the mother is fluent in English because she lived in California for a long time). So, we learned how to tango for half an hour, which is an eight step dance from Argentina. After, they took us out to dinner at a small resteraunt, where we were greeted to another special surprise, tongue of cow for an appetizer!!!! We also drank some sour juice made from a bunch of herbs called Terma. All in all, we learned a lot about Argentinian culture on our last week in Trelew!

So, Abby, did you eat the tounge?? Did you like it???
ReplyDeleteYes Sarah, I did eat the tongue which was surprisingly not that gross! The Terma was really sour, and the tango very hard, especially if your dancing with a 50 year old guy who has been tangoing since he was 10 or something! Very fast!
ReplyDeleteAbby & Malin - Beef tongue used to be quite available in the US, particularly at delicatessens along the East Coast. It's a great favorite of mine but, sadly, now hard to find, as are old school delicatessens. It's much more appealing when it's been sliced rather than viewed whole as you apparently had to deal with it. Congratulations on the tangoing. Love, Toby
