kick off this ushuaia food tour trying argentine cuisine. first up we're taking you to a local tavern with a nautical theme this place is called taverna del viejolo well guys time for food we have come to a place that was recommended by our new local friends that we met on the street they said this is one of their top three favorite restaurants in ushuaia it is called taberna del viejolo the tavern of the old wolf yeah and it is the southernmost tavern in the world yeah pretty cool we're sitting at like these tables that look like old barrels it has a strong sailor theme i would say and food wise we have ordered the monster picada it's meant to be a snack but it's gonna be a lot of food like we're getting different deli meats cheeses we're getting shrimp calamari it's mostly seafood isn't it fries yeah lots of seafood mussels so that's coming and we are very very hungry so let's get to it it looks amazing the feast of feasts has arrived we have a double table basically oh yeah double tabla so over here we have various kinds of seafood yes and over here we have more cold cuts and fries shrimp over here uh-huh and then this is chicken yes we have king crab breaded cream crab jamon crudo regular ham cheese and some peppers and tomatoes yeah and then three different dipping sauces let's start with the shrimp paste the shrimp peas are plump let me tell you oh yeah spread it to perfection crispy on the outside and then the juiciness of the shrimp as you bite into it you gotta love that and then the king crab cakes these are my favorite so far oh those are just delectable there's just such a nice mushy mash inside it's a bit cheesy too isn't that yeah they're like croquettes king crab purple oh my gosh it's so good one more bite this is a whole lot of food we've got dessert on our mind we've got a work cut out for us with this my dessert guys i got the one that's called busted chaka it looks like a vanilla cake with two fillings i have a layer of dust which is like the the famous caramel spread made with milk and sugar yeah and then another layer that is whipped cream with peaches and then on top i have more cream and little bits of crushed meringue so it's like a triple layer cake i have to try and get a bit of everything so hold on this is half the bite and the other half we take our our food sampling seriously guys and this is really good is it you know what it reminds me of what our wedding cake oh wow remember we had our wedding yeah the nostalgic wedding cake yes this is what we got interesting this is also my dad's favorite type of cake so well it's too bad he wasn't here to try it with us he would love it well if you went for wedding cake i'm going for something just about as opposite as a wedding cake this looks like a slab almost like a brownie but apparently this is it's also a de leche layer with a coconut on the bottom i'm not sure what that is i'm curious to see what it's like on the inside so dig on in and oh my gosh i think that might be pure dulce de leche no or something sort of like that oh my gosh like a mousse a goosey lichen mousse that's what it is a bit of a spongy gelatin like taste but with dulce de leche flavor yeah thick layer of coconut at the bottom wow some crumbs man that is good and what's that on the middle are you gonna take a bite of that is that a ball of juice a coconut ball a coconut ball wow very good very decadent guys looks tasty next up we visited a restaurant called bodegon fuegino which specializes in hearty dishes perfect for those cool days here at the bottom of the world wine is sealed yes we've found a fantastic little festive polygon called fragino and we are having a familiar favorite alma maura malbec probably one of our favorite table ones it's not expensive it's not reserved but it's just a very nice reliable wine and all right our mains have arrived what do you got they sure have so i got the cod with blue cheese with roquefort the cheese is melted all over the fish nice and creamy it just like melts in your mouth it's so soft so tender and i got the pumpkin mash to go along with it which is so sweet and creamy and fluffy so overall we're off to a great
