this Thursday, February 14 is the beloved and feared by equal celebration of Valentine’s day. If you live in Buenos Aires and still you book anything, here you make some suggestions from bars and restaurants according to the status of your romantic relationship (and where probably find table). If they are almost unknown would just begin to leave and the Valentine’s day is going to be a second, third, fourth appointment? Still not discovered all good or all bad in the other and do not know what well prefer each. The only certainty is that the night has to be special, but without being too overwhelming. The key is to look for a cute, original place in its setting and/or in its concept, with a menu that is suitable for everyone (omnivores).
In this sense, the great antiquary become restaurant and bar Naples (homemade 449, San Telmo) is a good choice: is one of the most beautiful avenues of Buenos Aires and the space is notable for its bizarre, and warm decor with a myriad of treasures hidden. In its singularity, continues to be smart and conscientious, Italian appetizers and worthy dishes (both pasta and pizzas are a safe bet).
If San Telmo is very far away, a great alternative in the other side of the city can be Catalino (Maure and Freire, Coleraine), a restaurant behind closed doors with an intimate patio and a menu based on the small and medium producers that provide food for each dish. The scenario is fine and picturesque and always seduces the idea of discovering a place closed to the public in general, but the real experience requires understanding where comes is what to eat, from vegetables to meat, dairy products through bread, oil, and any ingredient that is on the table. The service is excellent and the morfi, a luxury. If they already want pretty, but they keep getting surprised things are clearer, declared officially in love and they are accustomed to spending the time together. At this point, they visited several restaurants and feel in confidence to embark on the adventure… Or not for both, but they are suitable for testing rare meals or visit places out of series.
The new destination can be flowers. For many, visit that part of the Federal Capital already is all a trip. In the Korean neighborhood appears, almost redundantly, a Korean song (Carabobo 1549), iconic restaurant to discover a cuisine so strange as intriguing for the Argentine palate. There is spicy preparations, other friendly, there is kimchi, there are soups, there are vegetables, there is meat, there is everything and is hard to choose because each option is tempting and stimulating. The menu has pictures, but the best thing is to listen to those who serve: they are extremely friendly and dedicated to explain each dish to Diners.
Is the Asian not going? You can go to the other extreme culianrio (and in a more accessible area): Palermo, near Villa Crespo, the Santa Evita (Julian Alvarez 1479) is well argento and Peronist, that is to say much the same thing. If they don’t love the General, do not be afraid and dare as well. The kitchen of Gonzalo Alderete Pagés with the love of his life, flower Barrientos peace, moves beyond mural giant Eva and the March playing on speaker. Bread with butter and anchovies from entry, steak with noodles, garron of deer, fishing of Argentine River, mud-baked pies, homemade flan and the list continues. Prejudiced, abstain. If their relationship does not already pay patent you are a classic. All lived them and understood like no one else. Love remains in force and cobra force at the most crucial moments, though there are no tickling of the principle. Sometimes they hate each other, but end up resolving half his problems for power continue out to dinner. They deserve a 14 February as people, but without taking many risks: that no discussions arise and neither of them will be non-conforming. They are looking for a happy, comfortable and romantic night.
Facebook: Salon 1923 in the Barolo Palace (Avenida de Mayo 1370, Center), steps away from the Congress of the nation, has opened 1923 lounge, a bar on the 16th floor of the landmark building in Buenos Aires. The trip to the dome is charming, with the glow of the elegance of yesteryear and elevators that seem imported from Titanic (eye: they reach level 14 and then you have to climb walk). Once up, the really important thing is out. The terrace offers a privileged view of Buenos Aires which, no doubt, be the best of any appointment. The bar itself is unimportant: there are snacks, beer and glasses of wine of the House and not much more. Take something simple and follow path to another location should.
For example? Nearby is the greyhounds (Avenida Callao 501), a notable bar restored where you can ask excellent traditional dishes (breaded, fritters of chard, cuts of meat), drinking very well prepared drinks and take a coffee break to close an evening of another time. If the greyhounds already were, on the same line, but more to the South of the city, is coffee Rivas (United States 302, San Telmo), perhaps one of the most picturesque and elegant that you can find for these payments. The food is varied, although a little more elaborate; the classic cocktail is excellent and Thursday there will be music live, three Jazz hand to interpret movies memorable songs.
