No. 41 of the 50 Best Restaurants of Latin America – really??? – Restaurant Tegui (26. October 2017)
I was really looking forward to pay the Restaurant Tegui a visit – currently ranked No. 41 on the list of the 50 Best Restaurants of Latin America. Unlike in the Don Julio, the No. 21 on the same list, the reservation process wasn’t an issue at all. I even had to move the reservation […]
Solid drinks with nice interior: Bar 878 (26. October 2017)
The Bar 878 is located in the heart of Palermo and definitely worth visiting. It offers quite good drinks like the “Sofia” which just has the right amount of sweetness. However, just make sure to get it from the same waiter I got mine from as my friend had ordered a Sofia too and it […]
Oh la la – so French: Restaurant Frenchie Recoleta (26. October 2017)
We had walked by the Frenchie about 10 days earlier and found it quite funny as it was located right next to the French embassy. Given the car rental station Sixt was also right next to it, it was time to eat something small right here. The “menu of the day” (250 ARS) which included […]
Better than expected – breakfast @ Restaurant @ Holiday Inn Express Rosario (26. October 2017)
I was honestly positively surprised of the breakfast selection in the restaurant in the Holiday Inn Express. To be fair here, my expectations were relatively low, so it was quite easy to be positively surprised but I really didn’t expect that there would be a variety of cheeses, cold cuts … … cereals and fresh […]
An absolute no go – never come here: Restaurant Nicasio (25. October 2017)
When you’re really hungry it is still the best thing to be patiently looking for a nice place and not settle for the first best which pops up. Unfortunately, that’s what I did that evening as I was basically starving after a 400+ km drive from Córdoba to Rosario. I shouldn’t have. I went for […]
Another average breakfast: Restaurant La Pampa @ Sheraton Cordoba Hotel (25. October 2017)
The breakfast selection in the La Pampa is quite decent as you get a bit of everything you could potentially need for breakfast – fresh cut fruits and a variety of vegetables … … milk, chocolate milk, and some sweets … … a huge variety of sweet pastries … … and some regular bread. And […]
A very solid experience: Restaurant Alcorta (24. October 2017)
The “Arrollado de Ternera con Verduras (dressed veal with vegetables)” (120 ARS) is something you can kind of find on every menu in any Argentinian restaurant – at least that is what it seemed like. Therefore, it was finally time to try that ‘dressed veal’. And while it did not entirely look appealing at first, […]
Right at the border to Chile – there’s nothing, but: Restaurant Portal de Las Cuevas (22. October 2017)
When you have been driving almost 200 kilometers from Mendoza through the Andes to the last town towards the border to Chile, you end up in Las Cuevas. When we’re speaking about a town here, we’re exaggerating a bit. There is a couple of houses, mostly restaurants, and a church. Japp, that’s it. Nothing else […]
