Seasoned owner Marco Casas Beaux -- aided by the Midas touch of celebrated chef Marianne Zdobysz -- has devised a seductively dim, shockingly affordable dining room, a haven in these oh-soy-healthy times for those who live by the motto, 'Damn the low-density lipids, full speed ahead.'

Here, even the menus are leather-bound. Start with the deep-fried empanadas (including ground beef), the signature salad (adorned with smoked pork loin) or matambre (vegetable-stuffed flank steak). Hungry and indecisive patrons should make straight for the parrillada mixta, a veritable 'carnecopia' of delights including ribs, pork, steak, chicken, sausages and sweetbreads, served up with magical fries, tender veggies and chimichurri sauce, redolent of garlic and chili. Wash it all down with a bottle of Argentinean Malbec. As in much of Europe, in South America patrons start late and stay long, so don't rush the dining experience. Not so hungry? Or a wayward vegetarian, perhaps? While away a few hours at the bar, sipping on mojitos and swaying to the sexy tango soundtrack.
