These are some menu boards outside a restaurant we ended up eating at in the La Boca part of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is common to see menu boards like this outside restaurants with what they have on offer that day written in chalk.
This photo is to give you an idea of what they have on the menu in that part of town and what you will be looking at should your stomach start rumbling and you have to decide what and where to eat.
So, let’s see how good your Spanish is…
The first menu board (on the left) offers:
- Pescados
- Cazuela de Mariscos P/2 Personas
- Rabaz a la Romana P/2 Personas – $28
- Arroz c/calamares
- Abadejo c/salsa mediterránea – c/papas

The third menu board (on the right) offers:

The c/ is an abbreviated form of con in Spanish which means with (or includes)
Of course the prices will be different when you go as the photo is from last year.
