Argentina After Devaluation
Argentina went through a currency crisis in 2002, that effectively devalued its currency in relation to the USD by 70%. Today, The Daily Reckoning has a description of a visit to Argentina and I was struck by this lunch for 12!
Ad tag:
Everything is cheap in Argentina. Yesterday, we had lunch on the verandah of a restaurant in the little town of Angustaca. A party of 12 ate steaks and pork cutlets, French fries and salad - lavaged down with coke and bottled water. The bill came to $27 for the whole group. First, we thought the waitress had made a mistake; we demanded a recount. The math was checked, but failed to raise the total.The country's scenery puts in on my list of "must visits"!
