The place is run as a sort of private dinner place, no signs at all. You ring a doorbell and are greeted by the chef. Definitely one of the greatest meals I had for quite some time. The wine pairing and the presentation of it was an event of itself.
Before the dessert was served you were asked to test your senses. Little bottles were moved around you were supposed to identify the scent. Fun!
The B&B I stayed in couldn't have been a better choice. It felt like sharing a friends house. Situated in the Palermo district of town it is close to a variety of great restaurants (see above), shopping in Palermo Soho and a short walk to the subway, which gets you to downtown. Please visit Tripadvisor and read all the overwhelming good reviews. Run by a German and his Polish partner you experience European hospitality at it's best. Would they be in Boston, they would be serious competition for Encore!
The Collecion de Arte Amelia Lacroze de Fortabat in a new building designed by Rafael Vignoly was simply overwhelming, because totally unexpected. It looks like this lady was what Isabella Stuart Gardener used to be for Boston. It is located in the Puerto Madero area. which has been redeveloped with international flair, drawing interest from renown architects such as Santiago Calatrava, Norman Foster, César Pelli and Phillippe Starck. Don't miss to visit the Faena Hotel with the impressive interior design by Phllippe Starck.
