		<description>Interestingly, was just watching an episode of Man vs. Food, and turns out that Salsa Golf is pretty much the same thing as what, in Utah and Idaho they call &quot;Fry Sauce&quot; - ketchup and mayo blended in the original recipe, though these days there&#039;s sometimes pickle relish and onions added, making it more like the Thousand Island dressing I talked about above. From the Wikipedia page on Fry Sauce:

In Argentina, a similar condiment known as salsa golf, or &quot;golf sauce,&quot; is a popular dressing for fries, burgers, and steak sandwiches. According to tradition, the sauce was invented by Nobel laureate and restaurant patron Luis Federico Leloir at the &quot;Golf Club&quot; in Mar del Plata, Argentina.
In Brazil, many fast food restaurants provide &quot;rosé sauce&quot; (equal parts mayonnaise and ketchup, sometimes with hot sauce added) alongside the traditional ketchup and mustard with fries and onion rings.
In Costa Rica, a salad dressing called Salsa Rosada (pink sauce) is served with a cabbage salad. The main Salsa Rosada ingredients are ketchup and mayonnaise.
In Flanders, Belgium, the mixture of mayonnaise and ketchup is known as &quot;cocktailsaus&quot;, often refined with the addition of some paprika powder or whisky. Mayonnaise and ketchup separately on a dish (usually fries) and topped with freshly chopped onion is known as &quot;speciaal&quot;. A mixture of ketchup, mayonnaise, finely chopped onion and sometimes spices is known as &quot;riche&quot;, literally &quot;rich sauce&quot;.
In the Netherlands a variation of mayonnaise is served with fries which is calles fritessaus, it contains less fat then regular mayonnaise. In contrast to Flanders a frites speciaal consists of French fries, fritessaus, curry ketchup, and finely sliced onions.
In France, many Turkish restaurants and other fast-food establishments serve fry sauce and call it sauce américaine; it is also common for customers to request &quot;ketchup-mayo&quot;—a dab of mayonnaise and a dab of ketchup—alongside their French fries at such places. Both American sauce and the more thousand-island like sauce cocktail (somewhat similar to that of Iceland) can often be found in supermarkets, and occasionally also premixed &quot;ketchup-mayo.&quot;
In Germany, a popular product called &#039;Rot Weiss&#039;, meaning &#039;red white&#039; is sold in toothpaste-style tubes, and consists of ketchup and mayonnaise.
In Iceland, a condiment similar to fry sauce called Kokkteilsósa (&quot;cocktail sauce&quot;) is popular. Originally, the sauce was used with prawn cocktails—hence the name—but in course of time, it became indispensable with French fried potatoes. However, Icelanders use the sauce with many other dishes, including hamburgers, pizza, hotdogs, and fried fish. Substituting sour cream for some part of the mayonnaise is also popular, making the resulting sauce thicker and somewhat healthier.
In Ireland the sauce is commonly known as pink sauce, cocktail sauce or burger sauce and is enjoyed as an accompaniment to chicken goujons, chips and burgers.
In Macedonia, liberal amounts of ketchup and mayonnaise are often served with grilled sandwiches, French fries, and the ubiquitous Balkan hamburger-like pleskavica.
In Puerto Rico, the sauce is commonly known &quot;mayoketchup&quot; and is prepared with ketchup, mayonnaise, garlic and a hint of lemon. The sauce is often used as a dip for sorullos and other fried dishes as part of the traditional cuisine of Puerto Rico.
In Québec, Canada, it is one of the standard sauces eaten with fondue chinoise.
In the United Kingdom, fry sauce is commonly known as burger sauce. Mustard is often added.
In Venezuela, fry sauce is known as &#039;Salsa Rosada&#039;(same as Costa Rica) and it&#039;s usually served at parties with snacks like Meatballs, Pigs in a blanket and Tequeños.

There you have it, it&#039;s practically universal.</description>

		<description>[...] Montevideo - After our rather large lunch, neither of us could face a huge multi-course dinner. I asked Jos&#233; Luis if he knew of a place for really, really good chivitos. While in most parts of the Spanish speaking world chivito means a baby goat, in Uruguay it means a particular type of sandwich. Chivito stands are ubiquitous, but, with his eyes lit up, he announced we were going to the best, if I didn&#8217;t mind waiting the two hour drive back to Montevideo. Chivitos Marcos is now a four-shop operation, but originally started out with one small shop, nearly 20 years ago, we hit the one at Dr. L.A. de Herrera 1186 in the Punta Carretas district as it was only a couple of blocks from the hotel. A chivito is a sandwich that Dagwood would envy. A thin (&#189; centimeter) slice of steak, usually loin or rump is tossed on the grill and browned on both sides. It is then topped with a slice of smoked ham. This is placed on top of lettuce and tomato on a bun. It is then topped off with your choice from an array of toppings - olives, pickled peppers, pickled vegetables, onions, red bell pepper - and a choice of different mayonnaise based sauces. I basically took mine with a little of everything, and then, of course, topped it off with salsa golf. Then several slices of mozzarella are laid across the whole thing and it&#8217;s stuck under the broiler until bubbly and slightly browned. The top of the bun is slapped on top and it&#8217;s stuck on a plate in front of you. This isn&#8217;t wine food, so we split a large bottle of Uruguay&#8217;s national beer, Zillertal Premium - simple, good, refreshing, and perfect for this sort of sandwich. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] The restaurant is a combination pizzeria and parrilla, and, given my penchant for pizza, I opted for the former. The house specialty is the La San Miguel, which I hesitated to order, though my waitress assured me that it would be b&#225;rbaro, or &#8220;way cool.&#8221; It was very possibly the oddest couple of slices of pizza I&#8217;ve ever had, though at the same time, not bad. I won&#8217;t go for &#8220;way cool,&#8221; and I probably wouldn&#8217;t order it again should I find myself back at San Miguel, but the combination of tomato sauce, thinly sliced ham, a thick slab of mozzarella, slices of hard-boiled egg, wedges of heart of palm, whole green olives (I still don&#8217;t get the whole olive thing here - pit them already!) which were supposed to be whole black olives, all topped with generous squiggles of salsa golf and mayonnaise. No doubt a cholesterol nightmare, but interesting nonetheless - and the dough and sauce were excellent, the latter loaded with garlic and oregano. I think I should have gone with my non-specialty of the house choice of the Espa&#241;ola, a pizza topped with chorizo cantimpolo, roasted red peppers, black olives, fresh tomato, and lots of garlic. Maybe next time. A whole &#8220;chica&#8221; pizza is a bit large for one person, coming it at around 9-10&#8243; in diameter, and the large is about a 15-16&#8243; affair, so this is definitely a place to go for pizza with at least one other person.

		<description>[...] Although billed as &#8220;international&#8221; in style, I&#8217;d put Lola pretty firmly in the classic French cuisine camp. Service was impeccable throughout the evening. I think this is one of the first places in Buenos Aires where a waiter has approached shortly after being seated and asked if we&#8217;d care for an aperitif before we peruse the menus (not that I haven&#8217;t been offered something to drink first before, but it&#8217;s usually &#8220;do you want anything to drink?&#8221; as opposed to &#8220;would you care for an aperitif?&#8221;) Neither of the boys drink, so I ordered a glass of Luigi Bosca Malbec Reserve 2003 for myself - excellent red, classic Malbec with dark plum and black cherry flavors, a touch of spice, noticeable but not overdone oak. We settled into the menu, and my charges ordered a platter of poached shrimp with avocado and hearts of palm (fresh), served with a housemade Salsa Golf; and a beautifully presented sort of giant &#8220;beggar&#8217;s purse&#8221; of filo pastry wrapped around melted parmesan and gruyere cheeses, served atop a zucchini and carrot sauce. Both dishes excellent! [...]</description>
