No. 42 in the world · November 2026
San Telmo
No. 42The one to order off the fire
The tira de asado (short ribs), the bife de vacío and a provoleta
What it burns: A 2.5-meter charcoal parrilla
A Buenos Aires parrilla in a Melbourne lane, built around a hand-made charcoal grill.
Cook it at home
An Argentine asado at home: skirt steak, provoleta and chimichurri
1 hr 15 min, 45 min hands-on · 4 people. The parrilla rule is low, steady heat from embers, salt only, and patience. Skirt or flank cooks fast and tastes like the real thing; the provoleta (grilled provolone) and a sharp chimichurri make it an asado.
