Experience Authentic Argentine Cuisine at Che Argentine Grill

Located in Parkwood, Che Argentine Grill oozes charm and ambiance. The décor is rustic and industrial, the lighting is dim, and illuminated mainly by candles. The interior is moody with a secluded courtyard for al fresco dining for lunch or dinner.

Hosts Oscar and Bernardo offer an authentic Argentinian culinary adventure. Although Che is a meat lover’s paradise, offering a typical South American barbecue, or asado, chicken, fish and vegetarian options are also available.

The Menu at Che Argentine Grill

The menu boasts authentic Argentine cuisine. Starters include Provoleta, their trademark Argentinian smoked provolone cheese, served with pepper and salsa criolla sauce.

Other favourites are roasted marrow bones served with garlic bread, or their delicious homemade pastries – empanadas, stuffed with various fillings.

Their prime grass-fed beef is sourced from the KZN midlands, and all mains are cooked on the grill or typical Argentinian parrilla. Coated in coarse salt for that authentic Argentine taste, the steaks are served with their famous chimichurri sauce, which is also available to purchase in bottles.

Side dishes include roasted vegetables, papas fritas a la provenzal (French fries with garlic and parsley) and salads.

On the sweet side, their flagship dessert is Flan de Rio de la Plata – cream caramel with dulce de leche sauce.

Che Argentine grill offers take aways. They are available for private hire and for functions, as well as caterings. They can also be found at different markets on weekends.

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation? Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose.

Expensive is not always better. Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday. They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice. A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday.

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance. Of these, service is the most important.

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion. However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review. We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience? The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table.

Well that’s our theory anyway. It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced. However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience. In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe. It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
