Comments on: Paper Anniversary http://www.saltshaker.net/20060213/paper-anniversary Casting a little flavor (and a few aspersions) on the world of food, drink, and life Thu, 20 Nov 2008 15:45:56 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: SaltShaker » Blog Archive » Entering The Second Year http://www.saltshaker.net/20060213/paper-anniversary#comment-520 SaltShaker » Blog Archive » Entering The Second Year Sun, 02 Jul 2006 14:06:42 +0000 http://www.saltshaker.net/20060213/paper-anniversary#comment-520 [...] Buenos Aires - I recently “celebrated” the one year anniversary of this blog, and given that I launched into it as I began my adventures outside of New York, it’s no surprise that another birthday pops up. My arrival in Buenos Aires to, potentially at that point, live, was July 2, 2005, a grey, drizzly day punctuated only by the food experience of my first provoletta, and a mediocre one at that. Wow! A year here already, amazing how time flies, it sometimes feels like I’ve barely arrived, and other times like I’ve been here for quite a long time. I’ve learned a new language, explored a new culture (with much left on both counts to accomplish), I’ve been in a happy, live-in relationship for the entire time, I bought an apartment in a “foreign” country, I’ve opened a business there as well, experienced a cyclone, been threatened by border guards in Bolivia… Not things I would have predicted a mere twelve months ago.

You used the "Argentine advantage" on your burgers! Using the excellent local sirloin may have helped to raise them up to a rating of "unsurpassed". They certainly qualify as the best we've ever tasted. For us, though, the real test of your recipe will come when WE make them back in Canada. There, they will probably only be very, very, VERY good. Did I mention we liked them? - The Oyster Sauce? And the harmony of the herbs :-) Admit it, Dan.
