Lomito

Lomito

The lomito is the cheapest-eating expensive cut: a whole-tenderloin sandwich graded by how thin the lomo is sliced and how well the soft Córdoba bread survives the tower of egg, ham and cheese.

Lomito Árabe

In Tucumán the lomito comes folded: a thin disc of pan árabe pressed around seared lomo, mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato, the mark the Syrian-Lebanese northwest left on Argentina's steak sandwich.
