"This is one of the many restaurants around Plaza del Congreso, where I usually stay at the Ibis Hotel.When I had lunch there on Thursday, August 15, 2013, they were not on Trip Advisor’s website. So I asked for this place to be added to TA’s site, as I had done with a couple of dozen restaurants and hotels in Europe, the US and in South America. A couple of days later, it had been added, so here goes my review.I chose this restaurant last week because I didn’t want to go too far away from my hotel and also because they offered an interesting two course set menu with wine for only 60 AR$, which is somewhere between $8 and $11.32, depending on the exchange rate that you choose…Those who are not familiar with Argentina will think that I had too much fermented grape juice before writing these lines, but those who have been there recently, know what I am talking about.In Buenos Aires, if you go to a bank or an official exchange office, you will only get around 5.30 pesos per dollar. However, as you walk on pedestrian streets Lavalle or Florida, you will hear dozens of people repeating “cambio”, “cambio”, who will exchange your dollars at a rate fluctuating between 6 and 9 pesos.On the other hand, many cafeterias and restaurants take your precious dollars at a rate going from 6 to 7.50 pesos, and I know two of them on Lavalle Street that will give you up to 9 pesos per dollar.At this Borgatta restaurant, they also take dollars but at a lower rate than next door, where I had an espresso for 15 pesos and exchanged a $20 bill at 7.50 pesos per dollar, which is the most common rate in many restaurants.The “Menú del día” at 60 pesos offered several choices for the main dish (NO starter) and also for the dessert.I chose a good “Pollo napolitana” which was plentiful and good. It was a very big piece of chicken breast with ham, cheese and tomato sauce. It came with “papas a la española”, which is simply French fries cut in round slices.Since my chicken could tolerate some more salt, I asked the waiter why there was no salt on the table and he told me that it was forbidden. This means that Nanny Bloomberg has made at least one follower in the Argentinean government…For dessert, I chose a “flan” (custard) which was OK, but I wouldn’t sing a Gloria for it, as I did for the one I had at the “Cueva de Antolín” in Alcalá de Henares (Spain) on June 5, 2013, for which I already posted a review here, in Trip Advisor.Finally, a big cup of drinkable wine was included in the menu.If you read my recent reviews about Frankfurt (Germany), you will notice that the same two course meal over there would cost twice as much, because 99% of restaurants in that charming city only work “à la carte”, which is always much more expensive than taking a 2 or 3 course set menu like in Buenos Aires, Madrid, Paris or even Vienna.This place is conveniently located at the corner of Callao and Rivadavia, across from the Argentinean Congress. However, it does NOT have any street tables, unlike many other restaurants around this big square. Therefore, I went a couple of doors farther, on Callao, to have a very good espresso at a covered smoking terrace, because Argentina is not as “advanced” as California, where you must walk between 15 and 20 feet from buildings in order to smoke your cigar…The same night, I had a slice of ham and cheese pizza to take out for only 9 pesos, which is merely $1.20 at the exchange rate of 7.50, which I always got every time I had an espresso in a couple of coffee shops, one of them right next door on Rivadavia.In December 1990, during my first trip to Buenos Aires with my elder son Melvin, we slept right over this restaurant in a cheap hotel that still exists, a couple of doors down, on Rivadavia. In 1990 it was called “Mar del Plata” but now it is called “Hotel Dos Congresos”. However, I have never returned there since my first stay 23 years ago, so I don’t know how it is now. I usually go to the Ibis Congreso, a couple of blocks away, on the other side of the square, for which I posted a review in Trip Advisor in January 2013."
