Mendoza: Faça um argentino Asado BBQ com hospedeiro local e degustação de vinhos

Thank you for your feedback and for joining the experience, Monika. I truly appreciate your kind words about the evening and the time we shared together. As you also mentioned during the night — and as your friend kindly expressed on multiple occasions — it was a very enjoyable experience, which I’m glad to hear again here. That said, I’d like to clarify a few aspects for future guests. This experience is not intended to replicate a high-end restaurant, but rather to offer something fundamentally different: an authentic, interactive evening inside a local home, where guests actively participate in the preparation of traditional Argentine food. Regarding the empanadas, part of the experience is precisely learning and cooking them together — which naturally means that results can vary slightly, especially when made for the first time. It’s all part of the hands-on, informal, and real nature of the evening. I must also say I found the comment about the bread somewhat surprising, as it is sourced fresh from a local bakery — not grocery store bread — which is consistent with the quality standards I maintain for the experience. As for pricing, it reflects not only the food itself, but also the full experience: a small-group setting, personalized hosting, premium ingredients, unlimited wine, and several hours of dedicated time. It’s also worth noting that booking platforms apply significant commissions, which are included in the final price guests see. I always value constructive feedback and will take your comments into account. At the same time, this experience is designed for travelers looking for authenticity, connection, and participation — rather than a restaurant comparison — and it continues to resonate very positively with those expectations. Wishing you all the best in your travels.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’d like to clarify a few points so future guests can better understand the experience. This is intentionally designed as an authentic evening in a local home, centered around Argentine traditions, rather than a restaurant-style or “fine dining” setting — something that is clearly described in the listing. On this particular evening, I also accommodated a special request to start one hour earlier than usual and to provide additional white wine beyond the standard offering, which I was happy to arrange. Despite this adjusted timing, the group arrived later than the agreed start time, which naturally impacts the rhythm of a traditional asado — a process that cannot be rushed without compromising its essence. As for the timing, slow cooking is a fundamental part of Argentine asado culture. It’s not a delay, but rather part of the experience itself, during which guests participate, enjoy appetizers, and engage socially — something that, as mentioned during the evening and reflected in the atmosphere we shared, seemed to be well received at the time. Regarding the menu, the experience focuses on traditional Argentine flavors, where meat is the centerpiece. That said, I always appreciate constructive feedback and will take your comment about vegetables into consideration. I’m glad you found the food enjoyable and that you had the opportunity to experience a local home and culture. This experience is designed for travelers seeking authenticity over formality, and it continues to resonate very positively with guests who value that perspective. Wishing you great travels ahead.
