Cuisine Amériques - Caraïbes Midi-Pyrénées

Carlos Gardel and Maradona dominate the wall, the national flag, the Latin music, the decor is planted: La Pampa is the Embassy of Argentina in Nîmes. A small restaurant, which is located in the beginning of 2000 in a rue de Nîmes, where the world tables hold the top of the pavement. The cook will vary the offers around the specialities of his country, long influenced by successive European immigration, especially Italian. Morcillas and faïnas (chick patties) are topped with generous beef pieces, the soup in the quinoa is beside a spicy sausage. The very popular empanadas are small, salted slippers filled with meat, cheese, vegetables, etc. There are plenty of possibilities. In the room, Romi informs customers about menus or wines, which are also American. The Malbec dominates and allows you to taste this French grape for a long time under-exploited in our region. But before, ask a maté to discover the typical drink of Argentina. A dépaysante address where the reception is nice.

Fans of Mexican cuisine! In the heart of the day before city, Ô Mexicain is an address not to be missed. The chef, although French, holds the talent to take the classic fajitas, tortilla, enchiladas and quesadillas with great authenticity. Only the pepper is an exception to the rule, because it proportions it according to the taste of each. The dishes are well presented and served with generosity. Unlike many establishments known as Mexican, here, the decoration, very successful, does not fall into the kitsch. As for drinks, the friendly owners of Ô Mexicain offer imported beer selection - Floor, Corona, Dos Equis Lager, Bohémia - and wines from Mexico and California, that is for sure!

Welcome to the United States of the fifties. This replica of an American dinner welcomes you in an acidulous atmosphere, worthy of a B-series film, made of chrome, vitrified checkerboard, seats in Rouge red or Blue Pailleté. The map will delight the most voracious apétits with hamburgers, of course, but also tender and ribs grilling (typical from the Atlantic), hot dogs, onion rings, batonnets of fried or omelet cheese, most often accompanied by potato chips. The place does not negate the well-known influence of Mexico's distant neighbors and also offers tex-mex dishes, such as nachos, burrito or other faijtas with a glass of margarita. The most récalctitrants palaces will not be the following: there is also a menu of meal salads and even pasta! Like his American cousins, the restaurant also couler sodas at will; We chamaillera between the fans of Coca-Cola and Dr. Pepper's followers. The dessert will be made of milk shake, Ben & Jerrie's ice cutting, cupcakes, donuts, brownie, or cheese-cake. Of course, we'll be able to take a real, traditional US breakfast with pancake, Bacon eggs and even fries.
