La Bourgogne

Frommer's Review

The only Relais Gourmand in Argentina, Chef Jean Paul Bondoux serves the finest French and international food in the city. Travel + Leisure magazine rated La Bourgogne the number one restaurant in South America, and Wine Spectator gave it the distinction of being one of the "Best Restaurants in the World for Wine Lovers." Decorated in elegant pastel hues, the formal dining room serves the city's top gourmands. To begin your meal, consider a warm foie gras scallop with honey wine sauce or perhaps the succulent ravioli d'escargots. Examples of the carefully prepared main courses include Chateaubriand béarnaise, roasted salmon, veal steak, and lamb with parsley and garlic sauce. The kitchen's fresh vegetables, fruits, herbs, and spices originate from Bondoux's private farm. Downstairs, La Cave offers a slightly less formal dining experience, with a different menu, though the food comes from the same kitchen as it does in La Bourgogne. Wine tastings are offered Thursday in the restaurant's wine-cellar area called Cave de Vines; contact La Bourgogne directly for details.
