🎉 Happy Independence Day, Argentina! To celebrate, we’re serving up a second helping of one of our most beloved episodes — a vibrant, flavorful conversation with Pato from Las Chicas de La Tres, the heart and soul of the Mercado Central in Buenos Aires.

If you’ve ever wondered what Argentine food culture really feels like — from empanadas and tortillas to local love, loyalty, and a dash of street food stardom — this is the episode for you. We chat about the power of food to bring people together, how their tiny kitchen feeds a rotating crowd of loyal locals and international visitors, and what it’s like to run a restaurant as a couple and business partners.

This episode is entirely in Spanish, so if you're a Spanish speaker or learning the language, dive in! And if you’ve seen them on Netflix’s Street Food: Latin America, you know this isn’t just food — it’s pure heart.

🎧 Listen, laugh, and maybe even plan your next meal (or trip) around their unforgettable story.

🎉 ¡Feliz Día de la Independencia, Argentina! Para festejar, les traigo una segunda porción de uno de los episodios más queridos: una charla llena de sabor y emoción con Pato de Las Chicas de La Tres, el alma del Mercado Central en Buenos Aires.

Hablamos de lo que significa la comida argentina como espacio de encuentro, del día a día en su cocina vertiginosa, de sus fieles clientes (algunos con platos fuera de menú personalizados), y de cómo fue aparecer en Street Food Latinoamérica de Netflix. También exploramos cómo equilibran ser pareja y socias, la magia de las empanadas, y los sueños que tienen para el futuro.

Este episodio está completamente en español, así que si hablás el idioma o lo estás aprendiendo, ¡no te lo pierdas! Y si ya las viste en Netflix, sabés que su historia va mucho más allá de la comida: es puro corazón.

🎧 Escuchalo, compartilo y quizás te inspires para tu próxima comida... o tu próximo viaje.
