Best Asado in Bariloche

We throw the best asado in Bariloche every Thursday night throughout SASS Argentina. The asado is a huge part of Argentinian culture and is the perfect farewell dinner for each session. Slow cooked over hardwood coals throughout the day while everyone is on the hill, this serve-yourself event is a favorite of pretty much everyone. We hang out next to the bonfire, eat a seemingly endless number of different local cuts and finish it off with a round of applause for the asador (Argentinian grill master).
