I spent two days at the Argentine barbecue "Casa Portena"

🍖 Casa Porteña: São Paulo’s Argentine Grill Paradise A college-era favorite that still delivers—this spot has me coming back two days in a row (and still daydreaming about the steaks). Here’s why Casa Porteña reigns supreme in SP’s Argentine grilling scene. 🌟 Must-Order Dishes That Steal the Show Salada Porteña: Simple yet addictive—think fresh greens, tomatoes, and a tangy vinaigrette. 🥗 My "life salad" that somehow elevates every meal. Batata Wafer: Crispy, thin-sliced potato chips—dangerously easy to inhale as a starter. 🍟 Penne with White Sauce & Green Peas: Creamy, comforting, and surprisingly crave-worthy. 🍝 Portions are massive—easily feeds 3 people. 🥩 Meat Lovers’ Heaven: Steak Cuts That Melt in Your Mouth Bife Ancho: Tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection—no knife needed. 🥩 The kind of steak that makes you finish every bite, even when stuffed. Tomahawk vs. T-Bone: Tomahawk: Impressive bone-in steak (great for pics!), T-Bone: Juicier, cheaper, and (trust me on this). 🔥 Grilled Beef Intestines: Pink intestines, tender and juicy—explosive flavor in every bite. 🦴 Newbies, proceed with caution; offal fans, run here now. 💡 Pro Tips for a Perfect Feast Portion Reality Check: Sides are huge—share 1–2 between 3 people. 🥄 The white sauce pasta alone is a meal. Drink Strategy: Skip the limited drink menu; stick to soda or bring your own wine. 🍷 Branch Out (Literally): They have multiple locations—find the nearest one for your steak fix. 🌟 Final Verdict: Where Meat Dreams Come True Go if: You crave tender Argentine steaks You love sharing massive, flavorful sides You’re not afraid to dive into offal goodness Casa Porteña isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a carnivore’s paradise. Come hungry, leave happy (and maybe with a steak coma). 🍖✨ 📍 Address: Av.
