Once we had accepted the fact that Argentina was out of the WC it was clear that we needed some culinary healing. Our minds weren't in the mood for trying something new but revisiting an old favorite: Bar Uriarte in Palermo Soho. So we grabbed a radio taxi and drove through the warm winter night and got their around 10.30pm - they had one table left.
It's the perfect restaurant with a long buzzing bar, open spaces, high ceilings, great food and decent prices (AR$120 for two if sharing the courses). But the most fun are the people there; very vibrant, stylish and interesting. It's everything from the accidental tourist (very few) to families, couples, young crowds, fashionistas and semi-celebrities.
We had Carpaccio Clásico, Ojo de Bife and Chocolate Fondant with some Trapiche Roble. The food is well thought out in taste, portion and display. Sharing works great, gives us the opportunity to try more dishes.
Bar Uriarte also have a coat check and a security guy that can hail a safe cab for you. It all adds up to a very pleasant dinner out.
