Argentinean dinner for six
Ray McVinnie discovers the old-fashioned charm and European-city style of Argentina’s capital.
I recently spent what could be described as a very enjoyable long weekend, Friday to Tuesday, in Buenos Aires. My first time, I was there to get the feel of the place and naturally, eat the food and see the sights. Buenos Aires is big with wide boulevards, leafy parks and a varietyof architecture. Each building is signed by the architects with a plaque naming them. There is everything from elaborate ornate Belle Epoque buildings to more utilitarian Soviet style blocks, one with a gigantic neon of Eva Peron which greets you as you drive into the city.
