Buenos Aires — Where We Ate & Drank
We ate at 8 restaurants and drank our way through 6 bars in Buenos Aires—from Güerrín's standing-room pizza to Don Julio's parrilla and some of the 50 best bars.
Two trips to Buenos Aires taught us the rhythm: pizza at Güerrín standing up, parrilla at Don Julio if you planned ahead, then Presidente's stained-glass salon or Tres Monos until far too late. The city's bar scene—with multiple spots on global best-of lists—is South America's deepest. Spring and fall are the seasons; the steak is year-round.
