    I've been to several Jewish restaurants, and grew up on the classics, but I've never been to a…read morerestaurant like Mishiguene, elevated Jewish cuisine. Ranked in the Top 50 restaurants in Latin America, it's well deserving in my opinion. We shared two apps the sweet potato and charred onion hummus and beef. Everything was delicious , service was excellent, ambiance was spectacular. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for something different.

    I wanted to try this restaurant ever since I knew I was going to be in Buenos Aires. I missed the…read morepopup that Chef Tomás Kalika had at Intesect by Lexus in 2019 where my son-in-law was a sous chef. This was my opportunity. I seized it. I secured a reservation for my wife and I and was not disappointed. Situated in a neighborhood not unlike Surfside in Miami, this so-called Mediterranean restaurant exceeded all my expectations. From the greeting we received upon entering; to our server, Mariano, explaining portion sizes as well as the many dishes in which my wife could order or that the sous chef could alter due to allergies; to the suggested wines that may accompany our order. I had my heart set on BABA GANOUSH appetizer and PASTRAMIED RACK OF BEEF- their signature dish; the Baba Ganoush had tomato in it so that was out for Edna but another eggplant dish was substituted and it was just what the doctor ordered. The Pastrami preparation I opted for was not available but the PASTRAMI WELLINGTON: Beef Short Rib Pastrami, Mushroom Duxelles, Swiss Chard and Dijon Mustard; Served with Date Demi-Glace and Assorted Peppercorns, I eventually ordered was to die for. Edna opted for the fish of the day which was MULLET in a fine sauce made with Pastis. For dessert, I wanted something different and we got it: PUMPKIN, BLUE CHEESE AND MISO consisting of nixtamalized Pumpkin, Blue Cheese Mousse and Pumpkin Tofee with Miso. it was a small portion but it was delicious. A few words about the ambiance: the inside was beautifully decorated; the lamps hung in a low glow to accentuate the dark wood walls; the Michelin certificates proudly hung in a discreet spot; an outdoor section had been assembled to accommodate the throngs of diners as the interior is on the small size. Geez, it was only a Monday night!

    I was pleasantly surprised by Kebab Roll. I've been in Buenos Aires for about a month and we wanted…read moresomething different and relatively quick to eat that wasn't a fast food chain. When you walk up to the place it automatically has a different vibe than most - it's just relaxing. On a nice night, people are chilling outside with a beer in hand socializing. It was a group of 4 of us, so we had to try different things and sample each other's food. We tried 3 different kebabs, split a samosa, split a beer (some kind of IPA but it was GOOD) and I had to try the chicken. The chicken was delicious and had a good taste to it (I'll be back for it), and the ribeye kebab was a flavored bite of goodness. The owner (Shehryar) was entertaining - quirky, friendly and chill. He's one of the nicest people we've met in Argentina thus far (and we've been here for a month). I was also super happy this place took credit cards. In all, I'd go back for the food, beer and conversation with Shehryar.

After a few days of gorging on Argentinian food I was craving some curry and oh boy did Sheriyar, the owner, deliver on my cravings! This is no ordinary place .. every single dish was crafted to excite the taste buds and satisfy the soul. We gave Sheriyar some general ideas in terms of what we wanted to have and he whipped up a meal that hit the spot. The ingredients were fresh, the taste was authentic and the experience unique! Sheriyar engages his customers, takes an interest in their story and has a unique story to tell of his own. If you are in BA and are looking for some 'real' food from the Indian Subcontinent .. make a trip here. You won't be disappointed!
