La Patagonia (Camden Town)

• Both my friend and me were keen to have some good meat
• I thought price was just too high
• As it normally happens with all of the Argentinian restaurants in London
• Happened by La Patagonia while a friend and I were in the area and we decided to lunch there
• Tried the beef and chicken empanadas to start with and the Chicken Cannelloni for mains
• At the weekend I was surprised with a last minute dinner reservation
• To my surprise it was for a quaint little Argentinian place in Camden
• There were mixed grills with huge sausages
• S quite an intimate restaurant with maybe 10 or so tables
• The kitchen is literally at the back of the room &ndash
• The walls are covered from floor to ceiling in an array of different sized frames filled with photographs
• They made me feel welcome even when I was sitting on my tod
• M being flooded with memories of how yummy the food was
• 300g rump with green chimichurri served with chips and salad
• Crem caramel served with dulce de leche
• The provolone cheese literally turned up in a hot plate with a side order of bread
• It was baked with onions and what tasted like basil
• It was absolutely amazing and was reminiscent of mozzarella
• I mean I definitely could have finished it but I wanted to save some space for the mega ton steak that was coming my way
• The steak was genuinely the size of my forearm and was a steal at under £
• I was unsure which oil they were fried in because they had a bit of an odd taste
• Considering it was a rump steak
• I would say it was more of a medium than a medium rare
• I believe that was to allow us to savor the chilli sauces alongside it
• The salad was seasoned with more of a sweet tasting dressing rather than a bitter
• T too over bearing which is what you need
• Beautifully partnered with the caramel
• La Patagonia is the place to be
• Camden as it is is a very lively place with great street shopping options and loads of Global street Food
• When I was in London this Summer before we could party Friday night we decided to go out for a dinner with our friends and then hitting the dance floor
• Our friends recommended La Patagonia because they were regulars and loved the place
• My first experience with Argentinian cuisine and I am Impressed
• La Patagonia is an Argentinean Restaurant located in the hip and happening Camden town Area in London
• Argentinians love their meat so being a meatohollic myself I was super excited to try this new cuisine
• Unpretentious and cozy restaurant with a cute ambiance
• They claim that majority of their food is prepared on the parrilla charcoal grill and all of the wine is sourced from Mendoza
• Thankfully we had already pre booked a table for 4 earlier because I realised that the place is quite a favourite and people are willing to wait to enjoy their food
• It's menu is varied and they have all Major well known Argentinean Meats and Empanadas and Chimichurri accompanied dishes with some reasonably priced steaks and other meats on the menu too
• An argentinean steak with a Salad and Mash costs less than 8 quid which is great
• Food is great and the serving is decent and the service staff is very attentive and friendly
• We ordered a Cannelloni in Tomato sauce which was spectacular
• A mixed Grill with grilled chunks of beef
• Fries and Salad and an Argentinean steak with mash and Salad
• We decided to too it with a Bottle of Argentinean Wine
• La Patagonia is a great Argentinean restaurant which is a must visit if you are in London
• Friendly vibe (except when people entered and exited sitting next to the door in the January chill proved trying but we soon fixed that with lashings of Malbec
