Yeah, the list is FULL of SHIT!
[QUOTE=Toymann]Hola Happy. Not sure when you were stateside last but as far as the cost of meat goes you've got to be having one too many cocktails. I was just in Corrientes and the price of a whole LOMO was 36 pesos. I mean the whole tenderloin! In the US today you will pay at least 60 USD at a discount market ordered by the case (3 whole) Have never bought LOMO in BA but really can't imagine that the cost is in excess of 200 pesos for the whole deal. Just keepin it real. Happy Mongering All. Toymann[/QUOTE]Lomo - About as low as $22.00 pesos per kilo to a high of about $32.00 per kilo.
An excellent lomo from a young calf / cow will weigh about 1.75 Kilos max.
Unfortunately you have to remove the nerves, the head and maybe the tail so you are left with the ¨Chateau Briand.¨
The center cut, or ¨Chateau Briand¨is about 3 porcions or 1 excellent FUCKING steak!
And yes, back in SEX PRISON that cut is every bit of $20.00 dollars a pound at the CostCo store!
Works out to about $44.00 dollars a kilo instead of $8.00!
Oh yeah, speaking of great steaks; Lálliance is on track to re-open in about 10 days!
Goddamn Boys!
Are you ready for some great steaks?
I know I am!
Found some local assholes to invest THEIR money in MY business.
We shall see what happens!
I will be the PR Manager and Party Chairman.
Now , Bring on the CHICAS and the LOMOS!
Hope to see you soon boys!

Norton Malbec Reserva 2010
It is going for 11.99 for 750 ml bottle at my local Costco in California. I think in November you could buy it for under 100 pesos in BA. Anyone on the ground know the price? Drinking wine is cheaper by far in Argentina.
