The scenario at La Bamba de Areco

A group of friends, the most successful chefs from Argentina and Uruguay, living together for a week in an Estancia of the province of Buenos Aires where the group shared a living outdoors that allowed for a relaxed chat among colleagues.

 

Among the trees, with cows and horses in sight, everything is relaxed and in low motion, taking the time for a tour through the beautiful Estancia property.

Last week, lead by Francis, was concluded the recording of the cycle in Estancia La Bamba in San Antonio de Areco: cradle of the gaucho tradition, in the province of Buenos Aires.
Where local “asado”: beef cooked slowly on wood embers in some different ways is King, they got inspiration for their creative process of making new great simple recipes, and to recreate the old fashion typical dishes of la pampa in Argentina and Uruguay.

 

Filming idea for La Bamba de Areco:

The idea of Francis was to release this cycle that qualify as a “gastronomic docu-reality” on December performing a series of repetitions during the same month. “December and year-end celebrations are an excuse for this gathering of friends,” say the producers.
