4 bodegones in Buenos Aires with huge portions
The Cotorro Store
This tavern has one of the best milanesas in the city
In this beautiful tavern that seems frozen in time, they have one of the best Milanese in the city. Ideal for people who like to eat a lot and well. “The milanesa demoniada” and the “nuclear” are the specialties of the house. Located in the heart of Parque Patricios, in the Pulpería there is much conversation, discussion about soccer and copious drinking. Symbol of a Buenos Aires that refuses to disappear and worth remembering from time to time. It is located at Pepirí 320, CABA.
the bohemians
Los Bohemios is the restaurant of the Atlanta club.
As some may have guessed, Los Bohemios is the Atlanta club restaurant which, located next to the field, has a life of its own. The drinks are one liter, the dishes are shared and it is perfect to come with family -and children-. It’s spacious, the food is served fast and it’s super plentiful. Here, they will not find any “plates” and “portions”, the plates overflow and what is left over is taken. The ravioli are a hit, the tortilla is baby and the prices are in line with the times. You have to go early because it fills up fast. It is located at Humboldt 538, CABA.
german bar
Here you will find smoked sausages with sauerkraut.
Germany at the plate has been installed in Villa Devoto for 114 years. Here you will find smoked sausages with sauerkraut; the typical German sausage and even goulash. For lovers of traditional Argentine food, the waiter brings you a milanesa that is bigger than the platter and cuts it for you with a spoon at the table. Another speciality, not so German, is paella and rice with seafood. It’s a neighborhood classic that people come from everywhere because it doesn’t fail. On national dates, there is locro, empanadas and puchero. Inescapable for lovers of family food. The bodegón is in Av. San Martín 5992, CABA.
the ombú
It’s not cheap but the portions are large and shareable
Italian trattoria, bodegón, grill and restaurant, El Ombú falls into all categories. There are risottos and fish of course, the pastas come with a lot of cheese, selected grilled cuts and the inevitable antipasti such as vitel toné or the fritters that are prepared here on the grill. The desserts are just as tempting and succulent, prepared to conquer the most greedy palates. It’s not cheap, but the portions are large and shareable. Another classic from Parque Patricios. It is located at Patagones 2976, CABA.
