La Plata
Boquerones Fritos

Monday is a bad day to order fish, because fishermen don’t work on Sunday and therefore there is no fresh fish the next day. However, at La Plata they are the first to get the best sardines as soon as the fishermen arrive to port on Monday afternoon. And gosh, are they amazing! How would a bar that serves only three specialties survive for over fifty years? Fried sardines, pork sausage and tomato salad; all served on tiny plates that are easy to hold in your hand, which comes handy when there are no tables available inside and you have to eat your sardines standing outside! Make sure to order your wine on a ‘porró’ recipient: much easier to hold in hands full of plates than a glass would be.
