Afro - Mate tasting with local activists

Hours: 17:00 - 19:00

Afro–Mate Tasting with Local Activists is an intimate cultural experience hosted at Lunfarda / El Tambo Afro, designed to open a meaningful conversation around Blackness in Argentina through everyday rituals and lived experiences. The experience begins with a mate tasting and demonstration, where participants learn about the social codes, history, and symbolism of mate as a shared tradition in Argentina. Guests will sample mate prepared in different styles while enjoying traditional pastries, creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. At the heart of the experience is a conversation with local Afro-Argentine activists, who share personal stories, historical context, and contemporary perspectives on Afro-descendant identity in Argentina. Topics may include visibility and invisibility, cultural resistance, activism, and what it means to be Black in a country that has long denied its African roots. This is not a lecture, but a dialogue—a space for listening, asking questions, and connecting through food, tradition, and honest exchange. The experience offers travelers a deeper understanding of Argentina beyond stereotypes, grounded in voices that are too often left out of mainstream narratives.

The meal concludes with a traditional flan con dulce de leche, honoring the comforting flavors of local home-style desserts. As with any true asado, part of the magic lies in the unexpected—the chef’s spontaneous additions, special preparations, or off-menu surprises that reflect creativity, seasonality, and mood. These small twists make each gathering unique and unrepeatable. More than a meal, this dinner is about coming together around the fire: sharing stories, easing into the group dynamic, and experiencing Argentine hospitality at its most genuine. It’s a first night designed to feel less like a formal event and more like being welcomed into someone’s home.
