Negro – Buenos Aires
Marvin Gaye and a cup of coffee (Ecuadorian, Brazilian origin). Need I say more? Negro (la Cueva de Café) is great place for a cup of java. Locations downtown (Suipacha near Córdoba) and close Plaza San Martín.
Sucre – Buenos Aires
At Sucre, celebrity chef, Fernando Trocca, has been pleasing diners for years in this trendy venue with both excellent food and service. This is the best upscale dining experience in barrio Belgrano.
El Burladero – Buenos Aires
El Burladero is a classy, modern-day take on Spanish cuisine in a sophisticated and comfortable ambience. It’s not authentic. It’s better than authentic! And the mid-day fixed-price menu is a steal. This is a first-class casual-dining experience.
Green Bamboo – Buenos Aires
Horrible execution of Vietnamese cuisine. Horrible! It’s now on our list of overrated restaurants! Read the gory details here. Only saving grace was the pretty waitress. But there are lots of restaurants with those.
Il Gran Caruso – Buenos Aires
Traditional Italian restaurant specializing in homemade ravioli and other stuffed pasta. Food was good but not great. Ambiance is Just a little on the stale and boring side.
La Crespo – Buenos Aires
A unique restaurant menu that’s a mix of New York delicatessen and Jewish and Eastern European classics. This is one of Ollie’s O’s favorite lunch spots. The problem is deciding whether to have the pastrami on pumpernickel or the lox on a bagel sandwich. Why not have both?
