註釋
Modest prices, generous servings, friendly owners, and a devoted local clientele all define these caf�s, bars, restaurants, and pizzerias where you can taste the traditional everyday cuisine of Argentina in authentic settings. New or old, each one of the seventy profiled here has details that make them worth visiting. Many were the settings for clandestine political meetings in the days before the May Revolution; others provided inspiration for the artists and writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, who frequented them. At one bar, the most prestigious young tango musicians of Buenos Aires gather nightly, and, after a few drinks and a few empanadas (made by the owner himself), spontaneously perform. There’s a tiny
parrilla–
steak house
–
known not only for the best roasted meat at the best price but for its eternally festive atmosphere and chaotic charm. At another intimate
pulperia
, simple homemade meals are served communally at a wooden marble-top table.
The Authentic Bars and Caf�s of Buenos Aires
also includes Gabriela Kogan’s recommendations of what to eat at each venue, a map, and a glossary of Argentine food.
