Monthly Luncheon — Thursday, June 29 — 12:30 pm

Please RSVP to Michael at mweldon213@yahoo.com 
Phone – 4815-4660
Date: Thursday, June 29, 2017
Time: 12:30 pm
Place: Che Taco – Estados Unidos 501 – corner of Bolivar
Cost: Maximum of 220 pesosChe Taco has a daily special that lets you order any of their taco or burrito offerings plus a non-alcoholic drink. Their guacamole is definitely the best I have encountered in Buenos Aires. I plan to order dishes of chips and guacamole as an appetizer to share so I can’t quote an exact price until I know how many are attending. However, the cost will be less than 220 pesos per person. They have a full range of tequilas, both regular and Mezcal, and a great margarita will add upwards of 100 pesos depending on your choice.

Please RSVP to Michael to secure a place.
