In today's video, we attend our first food festival in Argentina! Feria Masticar is a food festival that celebrates Argentine food and drink, and draws hungry foodies from far and wide - ourselves included. The event hosts numerous classes and seminars for cooking enthusiasts, and it also brings together some of the most highly acclaimed chefs and restaurants. The festival is usually held in Buenos Aires, but this year they expanded to the coastal city of Mar del Plata and what better reason to visit!

In this video, we'll show you some of the Argentine dishes we tried including:
1) Calamari chorizo with pickled vegetables
2) Pork sandwich with Japanese BBQ sauce and coleslaw
3) Obama pizza with pepperoni and cheese
4) Super sorrentos stuffed with ground lamb confit, sundried tomatoes and mushroom sauce
5) Sauvignon blanc by Costa y Pampa
6) Churros stuffed with dulce de leche
7) Super dulce de leche ice cream cone
8) Wild boar hamburger

And that was just our first day at the food fair! We came back the following day to try some other Argentine dishes, so stay tuned for that.

🍴 Feria Masticar Food Festival Experience | Street Food, Desserts & Argentine Wine 🇦🇷

🎉 Arrival at Feria Masticar: Argentina’s Ultimate Food Festival

We’re here at Feria Masticar—the highly anticipated food festival in Argentina! We skipped lunch and saved our appetites for a serious day of indulgence. There are endless food stands, desserts, local wines, and so much more to explore.

💸 How the Festival Works: Tickets & Entry

Payment System: Cash isn’t accepted at food stalls; instead, you buy “Feria Masticar” tickets at special booths (100, 50, 20, 10 peso denominations).

Entry Fee: Tickets cost us 150 pesos each (prices go up once the festival starts, so buy early if you can).

🦑 Foodie Highlights: Street Eats & Creative Flavors

🦑 Calamari Sausage
Unique twist on a local favorite—calamari sausage with pickled and fermented veggies (carrots, green beans, onions).

Taste: Surprisingly juicy, not chewy, and delicious with a tangy, slightly spicy sauce.

Price: 120 pesos.

Verdict: A must-try for seafood fans.

🥩 Chicito Sandwich

Japanese BBQ pork sandwich on flatbread, topped with pickles, apple, and cabbage.

Backstory: Tried this because our Airbnb host raved about it—and it lived up to the hype!

Flavor: Smoky, refreshing, with crunchy veggies.

Price: 150 pesos (most expensive dish at the fest, but worth it).

🍕 Obama Pizza

Pepperoni pizza New York-style with lots of cheese—quirky name, classic flavor, hits the spot.

🍝 Sarmientos (Lamb-Stuffed Pasta)

Lamb-filled ravioli topped with smoked mushroom sauce and sun-dried tomatoes, made by a family-run stand (Don Francisco).

Texture: Cheesy, meaty, earthy, decadent—one of the best pastas ever sampled at a festival!

Price: 150 pesos.

🍷 Wine & Drinks

Wine Sampling: Pay 60 pesos for a glass, then sample various local Argentine wines.

Process: Buy the glass first, then pay by the pour at different wine bars.

🍩 Dessert Round: Sweets & Treats

🥐 Churros with Dulce de Leche

Crispy outside, gooey dulce de leche inside, finished with a pinch of salt.

Super sweet, super Argentine. A festival essential!

🍦 Super Dulce de Leche Ice Cream

Ultra-rich and creamy—a sugar overload for anyone with a sweet tooth.

Pro tip: Eat fast before it melts!

Samuel-Approved: For “super people,” apparently.

🍔 Wild & Unusual: Final Gluttony Stage

🍔 Hamburger with Wild Hare

Unique protein: Wild hare burger—smoky, slightly gamey, definitely different from your average burger.

Verdict: A peculiar but worthwhile try—when at an Argentine food fest, go wild!

🏁 Festival Tips & Wrap-Up

Go Hungry: Portion sizes are generous, and you’ll want to try everything.

Plan for Sweet Overload: Save room for dessert—churros and dulce de leche are non-negotiable.

Buy Your Tickets Early: Entry price rises when the festival opens.

Sample the Wines: Affordable and a great way to try regional varietals.

Festival Value: Most dishes range from 120–150 pesos (about $3–$5 USD). High quality for a great price!

🤤 Full Bellies, Happy Hearts
