1. Aramburu
The only two-Michelin-starred restaurant in Argentina. Gonzalo Aramburu has been persevering for nearly two decades. He was so confident in himself and his cuisine that he weathered years of an empty dining room in his first establishment in Constitución until he managed to position Aramburu among international tourists.
Currently located at the end of Pasaje del Correo in Recoleta, it offers a remarkable 18-course menu with rhythm and excitement, in less than two hours (those who wish can extend the evening with desserts and coffee upstairs). The dimly lit room lends a theatrical air to the affair: the only lights illuminate the open high-tech kitchen and those directed at the center of the round tables.
The highlight: From the current menu, we loved the oceanic section, where Aramburu's creativity shines with top-notch products like Fuegian king crab and oysters from the south of Buenos Aires Province.
Where: Vicente López 1661, Recoleta.
