The 15 Best New Restaurants in Buenos Aires | Eater

"If you’ve read a Buenos Aires guidebook published in the past decade, you’ve probably noticed the “Puertas Cerradas” box recommending the intimate multicourse dinners inside private homes that were once all the rage. Today, times have changed, and fresh young minds are transforming the “closed door” supper-club concept. After organizing pop-ups in kitchens across BA, freshman chefs Mica Najmanovich and Nico Arcucci settled on the eighth floor of a high-rise on the Palermo-Colegiales-Chacarita border, complete with an outdoor terrace overlooking the Dorrego Flea Market. The vibe might be laid back, but the masterful dishes reinterpreting Eastern European, Italian, and Middle Eastern cuisines are anything but relaxed, and each small plate emphasizes texture, freshness, and flavor. Vegetarians won’t leave hungry either, since more than half of the menu is meat-free. The wine list features an excellent selection of boutique wines, like the orange torrontés and chardonnay blend from Pielihueso. Anafe serves dinner Thursdays through Saturdays, offers a fixed-price all-you-can-eat brunch buffet on Sundays, and regularly uses the space for gastronomic events and pop-ups." - Allie Lazar
