    MADEIRA, PORTUGAL - Are you looking for the best steak in Madeira? If the answer is yes and you want to eat a perfect flame-grilled steak, then join me as I taste the food at La Vaca Negra Argentinian Steakhouse in Funchal.
    The food at La Vaca Negra (The Black Cow) is rooted in Argentinian steak culture and cooked in the traditional way. It, serves the juiciest, thickest and tastiest steaks on the island. Everything is cooked to perfection over a beautiful open wood grill. It is great to watch but really adds a unique smokey flavour to the food.
    The Argentinian steakhouse (and the grill which the steak is cooked on) is traditionally called a Parrilla.
    The quality to price ratio (bang for your buck) is high here. Portions are absolutely huge, especially if you choose the mega t-bone or tomahawk steak, but the prices are so reasonable for the quality on offer.
    All steaks come with sides, either baked potato or fries and the three house sauces.
    Don't forget to try the homemade empanadas - They are awesome!!
    The staff are super friendly and welcoming, but you do need to book. This place gets busy!

    Took you advice on this Joe..and how pleased we did! Staying only 10 minutes away it would have been wrong not to! We mirrored your choice and glad to say it’s probably the best piece of beef we’ve ever had. They took time to chat with us despite a full house and there well aware of your TH-cam reviews. It’s taken us three years to get to Madeira but we’re loving everything this island has to offer. Thanks again Joe👍👍

      So pleased that you enjoyed the restaurant. It's hard to beat a piece of meat cooked with fire isn't it. They certainly know what they are doing. Nice to hear their service was as good as it was when I was there too, that too makes a difference.
      I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip and find more awesome places.

      @@hungrytoexplore actually thinking about it I had the rib eye once and the T bone the next time. I almost certainly would've tried something different. Also, I had to book on both occasions. To be honest though, I never had a steak in Madeira that wasn't very good. Oh, and you're right. Fat IS flavour! Look forward to your next one Joe!

    Well hello there Joe, we've just been directed to your channel from one of our mutual viewers Paul (below) and how pleased we are! We're going to have a peruse at a few more of your video's and take in some of your recommendations. Incidentally we're in Funchal for a while, so if you're around and have the time it'd be great to meet for a coffee and say hello, if that doesn't sound too creepy!! No pressure and all the best to you mate.

      Hey - Thanks for reaching out. How are you finding Madeira? Would love to meet up, but unfortunately, I have exceeded my 90 days and have to wait to return. But, I will subscribe and keep in touch, your channel looks very cool. Maybe we will be in the same city at some point again over the next year.

    Hi Joe. There's a TH-camr called living walks who does some great walkarounds. I've recommended you to him. He's still there as he's just posted another video and regularly visits over Christmas. I said it would be great for you to get together and do a vid between you!

      Hey Paul, that's very kind of you, thank you. His channel looks very cool. Unfortunately, I left Madeira a couple of weeks ago as I used up my 90 days. So now I have to patiently wait until the Schengen Zone lets me back in. However, I will be back and around Europe, so maybe a collab will happen in the future.

      Aren’t many cows in Madeira my friend! Did you see any? A lot of the beef you eat in Europe comes from South America
