There are a few American-style restaurants that have popped up in Buenos Aires over the last couple years, run by American expats. But it's mostly Argentines who fill it up every night, not other expats.

yesterday on the way home from the wall, our driver took us to this outdoor roadside place that he liked to eat at..we picked out our own trout from a tank and the lady took it out, threw it on the cement and beat its head with a mallet a few times and fried it for us..we had some side dishes that is still making my ass burn...everything was delicious..
