I have issues...(booze) Thanks to my new friends / wingmen, I made it back to the hotel safely, and with my credit card. Once again, I owe you guys big. Also, sorry about the name issue. I will keep everything anonymous from now on. Any how, it was fun hanging out with you all and watching the bicholas strut their stuff.
Lastly, if you want generic ambien, it is zolpidem 10mg. Here in argentina, the trade name is sumenan.
Went here last week after reading the various reports here. It's not written up in the BsAs guiaoleo for some reason.
Some mix up where I wanted some spinach and onion side dish, but the waiter only asked me if I wanted fries or a mixed salad. Hmmm.
Anyways, steak was nicely cooked and fairly tasty. Probably won't return, though, since I saw the grillman throw various garbage into the area where the coals are fired before putting them under the grill. I don't mind him doing it with paper, but he clearly threw some plastic things in there. Can't be good healthwise.
We do not burn plastic bags in our grill. We recycle everything. What you may have observed was the wrapper that the coal comes in. A biodegradable vegetable based bag.
I thought the very same thing when I first had dinner at Lálliance and I noticed the grill man tossing the ¨bag¨in the fire.
He explained it to me and I thought it was a great idea to bring to the states.
Biodegradable, vegetable based wrappers!
Thank you for your business!
Ramiro.
P. S - You are welcome to come over for Thanksgiving dinner if you are in town!

Anybody interested in a Thanksgiving Dinner Party? Or just turkey and stuff like that? Feel free to call me or pm me and if the response is good enough we should be able to get it done.
Suerte,
Ramiro.

If you ask Ramiro maybe he will put the game on his 120 inch screen.
Hello Boys,
Looks like they finally fixed my Directtv system so we can enjoy the NFL the way it should be watched. With a 120 inch widescreen!
Sunday's games looked great and Monday night Football was fine too but this week's Packers vs. The Cowboys should be a smash!
Not sure what time the game starts but it doesn't really matter.
Take Care,
Ramiro.

Hi All,
Greeting from the Great White North. Will be making a trip back in March probably and just wanted shout out to everyone that the food and service at L'Alliance was awesome. I spent two months in BA over a period of about 4 and never tired of the people or the food.
Ramiro, see in March. If you want me to bring you some PB let me know.
Dave.
Wisconsin.
GO PACKERS! Yeah, I know they lost to the 'boys.
Good to hear from you dude!
I was going to try to call you once I found your business card!
How's your leg? Your ¨chica¨told me that things did not go well with your operation. I hope that's not true!
Nothing new here. Just heavy duty stress!
New girl. (19 - 20 years old, non-pro, nice girl)
That's about it though. Need to do a few things at the resto.
Take Care Dave!
Ramiro
It can be really challenging to the point of nearly impossible to find good dishes here a la the better restaurants in New York or San Francisco.
Celebrating a friend's birthday at L'Alliance and having all ready had enough carne for the day I was looking for something other.
Although it wasn't on the menu, there was a Cebolla soup which arrived soon enough and shockingly good, probably with a potato and leek base and nice flavors of onion. My friend had a steak with a sauce. The dish was au poivre, a pepper sauce. Maybe a touch thick but wow, it was steak au poivre and nicely done. The baked potato, one of the best dishes on the menu for a north american, saw an upgrade as well, cut in half with something akin to sour cream, chives and crispy pancetta down the middle. The parilla is always on the mark here, the wine choices seem to vary by the day, whether by experiment or happenstance is hard to tell.
Bravo L'Alliance! I'm working my way up to a re-match with the Caesar salad. If this wasn't a one off you'll be running out of room downstairs and filling the upstairs.
Thank you for the ¨thumbs-up¨ and the well written restaurant review. As always, I need to hear the good, the bad and the ugly about my food and or service!
The Lomo ala Pimienta (black pepper, blue cheese, etc.) is really good but I prefer the mushroom cream sauce myself.
And yes, you are quite right that my ¨wine¨list is more of what I prefer at the moment. I am always looking for the best wines at the best prices for my friends and clients.
Right now I am on a Shiraz-Malbec kick. (Callia)
Good and Cheap!
Thanks Again,
Ramiro.

Hey TL,
Saw your sign last night as I was in the neighborhood. What time does all that start. And who's gonna be there?
Oh yeah, your food is good too.
I think I owe you a picture but haven't uploaded it yet.
If you see this, refresh my memory about what's on tap tonight. It seems I had a few last night (I know how atypical of me) and just remember something about a dinner tonight.
Either way I will be in sometime tonight,
Booka
TL,
Have fun tonight! And happy holidays to all the members!
;)
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
Yes, your mind does work in mysterious ways at times!
Tonight we are having a semi-typical American style X-Mas dinner but with an Argentinian twist.
Turkey, stuffing, suckling pigs, wine, desserts, champagne, etc.
And, as always, LOMO! I am getting really hungry now!
What else? Girls? Maybe?
Reservations may not be necessary since this will be a little low key and more for friends and fellow mongers.
You are all welcome to join us!
Happy Holidays!
TL.
P. S - Beware of the places in Puerto Madero, Recoleta, etc. That are trying to charge in DOLLARS tonight!
Same menu but they will tell you that the prices are in U. S dollars and not in pesos!
Chacra Khan next door is at 300 per head!
