Mishiguene

"Situated just a few metres from the stunning Jardín Japonés, a verdant garden that highlights the friendship that exists between Argentina and Japan, you’ll come across Mishiguene (“crazy” in Yiddish), a restaurant that is full every day and that everyone is talking about. In its busy dining room, with its classic English style and a bar counter for customers, discover cuisine that revives the flavours of Jewish cuisine from a contemporary perspective. These revive Jerusalem-trained chef Tomás Kalika’s childhood recollections and his quest for “emotional memories” that demonstrate the imprint of an immigrant population marked by history. On his à la carte, which is complemented by a tasting menu, you’ll find delicious and copious dishes full of personality which usually feature lots of ingredients. One of Mishiguene’s signature dishes is Pastrón, a beef prime rib cured for ten days with salt, herbs and spices, which is then smoked over wood embers for four hours, and steam-cooked for a further fourteen." - Michelin Inspector
