"In 1851, Merengo stuck two biscuits together with dulce de leche (milk caramel) and invented the alfajor, now Argentina’s favorite snack. It's still going strong: this cute little shop on the plaza is one of several branches."

They sell the best dulce de leches of our country, and lots (the best ones too) of good alfajores.
