An inculcation to the thinning middle class, successful integration of multiculturalism, and to their pastimes such as weekly carnivals, amateur football, and laid back airplane counting. Bourdain's trip to meat-centric Buenos Aires features a meal at famous local spot Don Carlito's and an after-hours soccer match.
