I have just arrived in Buenos Aires. It is wonderful, but would love some suggestions for authentic restaurants, excellent Argentinian food in the city. I heard from a friend that gnocci is a favorite here. Where is a place to find the best. She said there was a hotel she found that had great gnocci--but I can't remember the name and haven't got her email with me. Any suggestions for exciting places that won't remind me of home in Boston would be great. Thanks. |

Sam, here is a little secret. You can walk into virtually any "fonda" anywhere and eat great gnoccis as well as any other tasty dish. But if you insist on names, check Sottovoce in La Recoleta, La Parolaccia also in La Recoleta, Piegari in Posadas street and/or Cosa Nostra in Palermo. One of my favorites is Broccolino in Cordoba street (centro). |

Hi! If you do not find "gnocci" on the menu, try "ñoguis"! It´s kind of pasta served with creamy (or others) sauce. They ara based on potatoes! As Roberto told, you can get them almost everywhere.. cheap food, good solution for kids for instance! |

I love to go dining at the restaurants of the Oja Group, like Alé Alé (Estado de Israel) or Los Chanchitos (Angel Gallardo 600). Great value for money and good pastas too! |
