World leaders will have the opportunity to taste the famous strong meat diet of Argentina
Steaks, lamb and "choripan", a sausage served between the loaves – world leaders at the G20 summit in Buenos Aires this week will experience a traditional Argentine menu, said Wednesday to Reuters the chief of collective catering.
Between the discussions on international trade, the global economy and climate change at the two-day summit, leaders of the Group of 20 will have the opportunity to taste the country's famous food, rich in meat.
At a time when Argentina is increasing its beef exports to China and opening a bilateral beef trade with the United States, the country hopes that the G20 menu will serve as a showcase for its food products.
Traditionally sourced from grbad fed cattle in the emerald green pampas of the country, the often gigantic steaks, sprinkled with a glbad of robust red Malbec wine, are the pride of many Argentineans.
"The idea behind the menu was to showcase the high quality of Argentine food, seasonal produce and the food that represents us as a country," said Tommy Perlberger, the chef who runs the company who will provide food for the summit.
Friday for lunch, the chefs will dine at the steak. For dessert, they will have a flan with coconut ice cream and dulce de leche, a caramelized condensed milk sauce, said Perlberger.
The Friday gala dinner at the world-renowned Teatro Colon Theater will feature the king crab from the southern region of Argentine Patagonia, and the main dish of Saturday's dinner will be a Patagonian braised lamb, said Perlberger.
Meals will be accompanied by wines from all over Argentina.
But the star of the G20 menu may well be choripan, a sausage chorizo grilled on charcoal and served between two slices of bread, which will be served as an aperitif. Often covered with chimichurri sauce with garlic, sellers sell this popular street dish at football matches or in the parks.
"We did a comprehensive search to find the best chorizo in Argentina," said Perlberger.
"I would love that the food we lavish delighted the presidents – maybe at some point their countries will buy some of our products," Perlberger said.
