Posts: 1043Neighborhood Parrilla
I'll be back in BA in about 10 days, so I'm trying to gather some current information.
It's been 5 years since I lived there permanently and I remember during my last visit (early 2010) that several of my old hangouts were gone.
I'm looking for a replacement for El Yugo that formerly existed on Ayacucho and Las Heras. I know a lot of you guys remember it, but for those who don't, it was just a mid-range, informal Argentine parrilla with maybe 4 waiters. You could get a decent bife de chorizo, matambrito de cerdo, provoleta and some wine with pretty good service for an average price.
One might think that this kind of place exists on every corner in BA but it doesn't. The old location is less than 2 blocks from Recoleta Village, but I consider that a tourist area.
Any suggestions for places within 5 blocks?
Replacements for Affaire Pueyrredon (another casual local place, but a "caberet") are also welcome! I'll probably post something in that area.
Many Thanks,
Moore

Or checkout saltshaker. Net for lots of food info about BA.
My experience with BA seafood is that the range and quality of options isn't that great compared to lots of other countries.

Is indeed a good help. Better rated restaurants are normally good and bad restaurants as well.
I enjoy the curry in Gibraltar, but I not an experienced Indian food eater. Mumbay is supposed to be good, but I haven't been there in ages.
I think the restaurant on the pier near Aeroparque is supposed to be the best seafood restaurant in the city but I also heard it's expensive and have never been there
When my mom was in town she rarely enjoyed the salmon, probally the best way forward is check out Guia oleo and go for the best or one of the best

Guía Oleo has an advanced search function which allows you to search by type of food (http://www.guiaoleo.com.ar/busqueda/avanzada).
There's a place on Las Heras which sells (what appears to be) fresh seafood and there is supposed to be a restaurant upstairs. It's within a few blocks of Las Heras and Austria.
In my experience even nicer restaurants which have salmon on the menu. It's not likely to be fresh salmon and won't be very well prepared.

Posts: 20Two good places
I enjoyed dinner one night at Cafe Ditali, which came at the recommendation of a member and is located downtown at Maipú 902, at the corner of Paraguay. The steak meal I had included artichoke hearts and asparagus. The meal and a water ran me about 89 pesos before the tip.
Off of Santa Fe, on the way to Palermo, is La Aguada, at Bilinghurst 1862. They're also at ww.laaguadacocina.com.ar
This place delivers as well.

Posts: 86Good Breakfast?
Anyone know of a place that serves a really good breakfast?
Maybe a cross between American and Argentinian?

Posts: 19Went to lunch at Bennihanna's Japanese Terriyaki, Alto Palermo. This is a chain of show restaurants from the US. The cost for a duet (beef and shrimp) was $ar49, included salad, fried rice with veggies, soda, shrimp and beef, and dessert (ice cream) I've been to a number of these types of restaurants in the US. This one opened in late November 09. The cook / chef looked like he had his first lesson in showmanship that morning. I rate the show a 2 out of 10. The food was Ok, the server was polite and spoke English well. While the price and food was good (compared to the US) the show was poor at best. They're new, so they probably need more time to master the juggling, knife work, and fireworks. The Argie with me liked it.

Tancat
Paraguay 645
Outstanding food done properly.
I have eaten there three times now and it's always busy and the quality is outstanding.
Had the salmon twice.
Seems popular with the local gormonds.

Limited menu and it may take a few days to work-out the kinks but I think you will enjoy it.
Plus my deserts are a GREAT RIDE!

And yes, it would have been about half the price for a much better meal.
Served by the owner and in English!
Plus my deserts are a great ride!
Hope you can make it soon!

P. S - I am re-opening tomorrow for lunch but I think that it will take a abuot 10 days to get the kinks out of the deal.
Trying new wait staff and meat providers, etc.

I went there yesterday. Mediterranean french restaurant. Good price around 40 pesos for main course, sprite and coffee. They told me this is a school so they only open for lunch. Very good experience.
