Bar Isabel
Sophie´s is a very exclusive bar in Palermo Soho, owned by the same people who own Casa Cruz and Oslen´s. As you can imagine, it is very expensive, and although the chic-retro atmosphere is worth a visit, you may find it hard to rationalize a visit here over some of the areas other top [...]
Parú
Páru is the new Peruvian/Japanese restaurant opened by Jan Van Oordt, the previous head chef and one of the owners of the famous Osaka. I was very excited to try this place out, but unfortunately, left a little disappointed.
The restaurant itself is nicely done up, it has two floors, and both are broken down into [...]
Lujuria Cabernet Sauvignon 2007
Lujuria is one of Suter´s upper end line of wines. The 2007 cabernet is a complex, full bodied wine full of ripe red fruit flavors, with smoky and spicy undertones. It has a nice long finish, where you will notice some vanilla and chocolate notes as well. I must say, this wine was a nice [...]
Mark´s Deli
Mark´s Deli is a small sandwich and soup café located in the heart of Palermo Viejo. It stands out for it´s big orange awning and the large crowds that it often has. If you´re looking for a great homemade sandwich, salad or soup, this is one of the best spots to go in the area.
It [...]
Don Nicanor Blend 2008
This wine is a classic from Nieto Sentiner. It is a blend of Malbec, CabSav, and Merlot, and this particular vintage is from 2008. It was a very impressive wine – medium bodied, complex flavors, well-rounded tanins and a very long, finish.
Nose: very fruity with a hint of wood.
Palate: This is a jammy wine, [...]
Oro & Cándido
Oro & Cándido is a small deli and restaurant located on the corner of Guatemala and Maria de Oro. Their idea is to serve food that originates from all parts of Argentina, north to south and east to west. As you can no doubt imagine, their menu has a large variety of different foods, though [...]

El Francés
It was a Friday night and we were craving French food – we were hoping for fondue, but to my dismay found that our local fondue favorite had shut down…so we decided to try El Francés, a small bistro style French restaurant in Palermo SoHo. The atmosphere is nice, it is very spacious, large windows, [...]
Finca Beltram – Malbec
This wine has to open up a bit (about 30min), but once it has done so, it is pretty decent. Rich red berry, fig, and vanilla flavors lead to a medium finish with hints of leather and coffee. The tannins are a little astringent, but it is quite decent for a $10 peso wine. Would [...]
Humberto Canal Blanc de Noir Blush 2009
This is a rose wine that will bring back memories of the sweet blush zinfandels from the 90s. Sweet, cloying, no complexity, and a poor finish make this wine a dud. Unless you liked those zinfandels, this one is not worth trying. A disappointment from Humberto Canale, which for the most part [...]
