A revolutionary force in the traditional Argentine parilla scene, Asian Fusion Grill Steak House combines Asian-style cooking with traditional Argentine flavors and produce, mainly meat, as the name implies. This restaurant prepares its dishes according to Sephardic custom, and serves salmon, lamb and chicken, among other dishes, all certified kosher by Rabbi Daniel Oppenheimer.

Freddo

Indulge in some kosher ice cream in Freddo

Argentina may be just as famous for its ice cream as it is for its meat. Taking its cues from the Italian motherland, Argentine ice cream is rich and thick, and will satisfy anyone with a serious sweet tooth. Argentina’s premier ice cream shop Freddo has many kosher varieties on offer, and each flavor is annotated with an AK next to it.
