In-Depth Information

Iron
lamps and brickwork restore the romance to this 1914 flour mill - undoubtedly the nicest
restaurant setting in town. On weekends it's busy, with the wood-fired
parrilla,

steaks and even vegetables.
Drinking & Nightlife
Touring Club
CAFE
(Av Fontana 240; 6:30am-2am)
Old lore exudes from the pores of this historic
confitería
(café offering light meals; snacks AR$12), from the Butch Cassidy 'Wanted' poster to
the embossed tile ceiling and antique bar back. Even the tuxedoed waitstaff appear to be
plucked from another era. Service is weak and the sandwiches are only so-so, but the am-
bience is one of a kind.
Boru Irish Pub & Restobar
PUB
(Belgrano 341; 8pm-4am)
Hip and attractive, featuring a beautiful wood bar and a row of
cozy red booths, Boru serves up icy beer and plates piled high with french fries.
