Cluny, Buenos Aires

Cluny has become my Boston Navy Yard Bistro of Buenos Aires. The actual space is fantastic.Seems as if it was an old garage, part inside part outside.Staff are very attentive and the food is excellent. Salmon tartare, steak and grilled octopus cannot be beaten. Great wine list. You get the picture I really like this place. Go check it out and if you are really lucky you may even get to talk to the chef with the crazy Lancashire accent.

MOTT Buenos Aires
by supershag on Dec.15, 2011, under Bellini, Buenos Aires, Cocktails, Free Wi-Fi, Happening, Mojito, Roof Deck/Patio, Salmon, Tuna
Do not be put off by the very naughty name (in British English).This is another one of “the” places to hang out.Located in the bohemian area of Buenos Aires,Palermo Soho , Mott is a big open space that just yells COOL.The bar is very well stocked and the caipirinhas will knock your head off.Smoked salmon sandwich is excellent and most of the food is locally sourced.Definitely worth a visit.

Red Resto and Lounge Hotel Madero Buenos Aired
by supershag on Dec.15, 2011, under Buenos Aires, Cocktails, Gluten Free, Salmon, Stay Here If You Can, Sushi, Swanky, Tuna, Wine
As we were staying at the Hotel Madero seemed only right to check out the in house restaurant of celebrity chef Stephen Jung.We had the salmon and tuna and when they heard part of our group had a gluten allergy the promptly accommodated with a sushi menu. It was ok but nothing to write home about. The one thing that is really good though is the cocktail ‘Un Hombre’. The drink is sweet and almost like a dessert by itself.

Le dOMe Four Seasons Buenos Aires
by supershag on Dec.14, 2011, under Buenos Aires, Chicken Club, Free Wi-Fi, Irish Coffee, Octopus, Salmon, Swanky, Wine
Le dOMe at the Four Seasons is one of the most sophisticated bars in Buenos Aires. A place where local power brokers would meet but thank god just as comfortable with me in my shorts (they are very nice shorts though).Grab a seat at the bar lean back and look up at the dome after which the restaurant is named. If you do not feel sick from being light headed tuck into the salmon burger. Absolutely brill. The wine list is first rate and of course the service is great. Make a reservation at Le dOMe
Free wi-fi and a great soundtrack (not what I expected at all) made this the ultimate lunch experience.
Gran Bar Danzon Buenos Aires
by supershag on Dec.14, 2011, under Buenos Aires, Champagne, Cocktails, Free Wi-Fi, Happening, Mojito, Osso Bucco, Steak, Sushi, Wine
One of the great bars of the world which actually serves great food. Never been disappointed. I had the Mojito V. S. made witch Congac and topped with champagne, it is a must try if you stop in. The sushi was really good we had the California and Vegetarian rolls. Osso Bucco was outstanding along with the Salmon/Sole Ceviche. To follow suit with the overal Urban downtempo the wine list was presented on an iPad much to my entertainment. Make sure to make a reservation for Gran Bar Danzon prior to arriving. If you take a taxi to this hotspot be sure to tell them the entrance is 1161 Libertad between Santa Fe and Arenales or you may circle the block a few times as their is no sign. The vibe reminds me of Sonsie in Boston, always busy and great for people watching. Bar Danzon offers free wi-fi which is very handy when traveling abroad. By far a Buenos Aires must do.
Sam’s – Boston
by supershag on Dec.09, 2011, under Beer, Boston, Champagne, Chicken Club, Happening, Parking/Valet, Roof Deck/Patio, Salad, Scallops, Steak, Tartar, Wine
After swearing never to come back to this seaport area eatery I was pleasantly surprised on my last visit that it really had changed. Located above the famed Louis of Boston it has the feel of a very hip diner. Overlooking the harbor and downtown the views can be really spectacular. Service has really improved and the food is great. They worked to provide adjusted menu items for gluten and dairy intolerance. I had the the steak tartar which was excellent and the (steak frites) hanger steak which I would prefer with fries rather than the farro they came with. We also had the radicchio salad and seared scallops which were prepared without dairy/gluten yet both were delectable. Wine selection is good but be prepared to buy bottles as by the glass is limited. I enjoyed a japanese beer ‘Asahi’. Diners get 2 free hours parking which is brill and the bar area has a great TV. When the weather permits the outside deck is really pleasant. Overall well worth a visit.

Trade Boston
by supershag on Dec.04, 2011, under Beer, Boston, Dairy Free, Gluten Free, Happening, Steak Frites, Wine
Latest offering from Jody Adams of Rialto fame. Cool architecture similar to that of Albert Dock in Liverpool . Great view of Occupy Boston tented village.Allagash White beer very good. Tasted the Gotham Project Cabernet, a wonderful peppery wine on tap from the Finger Lakes in NY. Skirt steak and fries excellent for 21 bucks. Will return
Book your reservation using the Trade website or UrbanSpoon.
Others in the party tasted the mushroom soup and brussel sprouts, both were gluten and dairy free. Vegetarians be aware the mushroom soup uses a chicken stock. The staff at Trade were proactive in providing a menu with identifiers of GF for Gluten Free and DF for Dairy Free.
Fleming’s Boston

Enjoy some fine dining at Fleming’s Steak House in Boston, great steak and seafood dishes. They have an extensive gluten free menu and are amenable to accommodate any allergies. The wine selection is great, we tasted: ‘Three Saints’, ’14 Hands’ and ‘Catena’ all were great! They also had a few favorites of mine ‘Two Hands, McLaren Vale’, ‘Orin Swift, The Prisoner’, Stags’ Leap Petite Syrah’ and ‘Ravenswood, Zinfandel’ can’t wait to come back! Check out the Fleming’s website for monthly deals, menu and to make a reservation.
