"Salt Shaker" (I think that's the pseudonym under which he posts in this forum) may be able to help, Neil, as serving food is his business.

From what I've seen of carnicerías in the Cono Sur, you probably wouldn't prefer employment as a butcher (nastier than in Britain or the States, and ill-paid to boot). Owning a restaurant, by contrast, appears to be as profitable proportionately as it is in our home countries.

Thanks RWS Would still like to give The food buisness down here a go,yes i think the butchers here are terrible and so backdated but I am qualified to teach european butchery which optimises all the cuts to there best potential,But change is the hardest thing ive found .Thanks again RWS

Just curious, what are the practices among butchers that you see that you find objectionable? Are conditions unsanitary?

Maybe you should apply to one of the culinary schools? Or you can do what lots of people do, bring people on Argentine parrilla & cooking lessons.
