It’s Good to Eat Plants
New: First and third Fridays of each month we’re also serving lunch at 1pm! Same concept but with fresh fruit and vegetable juices instead of wine! Carrying on with Thursdays at 8:30 as always. Our first lunch will be April 6!
Buenos Aires is famous for steak, empanadas, milanesas, pizza, and pasta – and those can be delicious. . .for a few weeks. Fortunately when the over-abundance of meat, cheese, and white flour products starts making you crave a celery stick filled with hot sauce don’t despair! Your corner verduleria is bursting with colorful fresh ingredients just waiting to be transformed into spicy, succulent meals. Jueves a la Mesa is where imagination meets the natural bounty of Argentina.
We all know it’s good to eat plants because they are full of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that protect us from cancer, improve cell functioning, and cleanse our bodies of toxins. There’s another reason: turning plants into food puts us in direct contact with leaves, stems, seeds, fruits, and flowers. While many of us have lifestyles that limit our exposure to nature or even a garden, the handling and preparing of plants offer a connection to the natural realm.
Come to the polka dotted table in San Telmo for hearty soups and salads, spicy main dishes including beans, whole grains, and nuts; and delicious homemade chocolate. We use little to no white flour or sugar, and we share our recipes! AR$100 every Thursday at 8:30 and the first and third Fridays of each month at 1pm.
