For our friends Jennifer, Sophia & Ramón, a lunch at El Preferido de Palermo is the best, hands down. A taverna since 1952 this beautiful pink restaurant is as eye-catching on the exterior as it is in the interior. Whilst the meats and charcuterie is a must, the veg grown on the kitchen allotments is just as tasty. 

An intimate quirky bistro with an open kitchen, the menu (written on a chalkboard) changes daily depending what is freshest at the market that day. If you can't make your mind up, ask chef Rodrigo Castilla to surprise you.

On the hunt for an intimate, chilled restaurant? Head to Gran Dabbang for fusion small plates inspired by the chef's travels that are made with local fresh Argentine ingredients. Don't miss the Swiss chard pakoras with carrot chutney.

Nola is an intimate popular gastropub with mouthwatering fried chicken delicacies and tasty craft beers.
