MEATLESS IN BUENOS AIRES
Argentine cuisine is internationally famous for its succulent grilled meats, but this
doesn't mean vegetarians - or even vegans - are completely out of luck.
Most restaurants, including parrillas,serve a few items acceptable to most ve-
getarians, such as green salads, omelets, pizza and pasta. Key words to beware of
include carne(beef), pollo(chicken), cerdo(pork) and cordero(lamb). S in carne
means 'without meat' and the phrase soy vegetariano/a(I'm a vegetarian) can
come in handy.
