DIXIE DINER
Avenida Libertador and Carlos Pellegrini
4807-0703
North American
Open 7 days, breakfast, lunch and dinner
Inexpensive
The 1950s diner is an American classic that will
never fade. Instead, it is constantly reincar-
nated without ever taking on a different per-
sona. It is a faithful reproduction, from the
booths to the chrome counter with bar stools,
and even the menu is all American. Order a
greasy burger with fries or onion rings and a
shake. We did notice one variation on this popu-
lar theme. There's an espresso maker behind
the counter.
The Carritos of
Costanera Norte
Costanera Norte is a waterfront promenade
that runs along the River Plate. At different
points en route, run-down dock areas have been
converted into shopping malls, modern sports
facilities and private clubs. River Plate Sta-
dium and Aeroparque Jorge Newbury are in
this area, but the most notable attractions are
the
carritos
that line a stretch of one inlet,
Avenida Rafael Obligado. The
carritos
of today
are popular restaurants that serve Italian,
parrilla
and seafood specialties.
There is another
Dixie Diner in
Costanera
Norte.
