Hotel Madero: Red Restaurant

After staying a few days at the Hilton and didn't like the businessy ambience of the Hilton I've moved back to Hotel Madero (also since this hotel has a wonderful free breakfast. :D).

It was already 2PM and my room was still being prepared so I settled to eat lunch at the Madero's Red Restaurant and ordered a grilled rib steak with malbec wine and for desert some parfait .

Even though I was not used to eating at places where there are more than one pair of kubyertos I still found the place cozy. So on with my dining experience:

As with every restaurant that I've been to in Buenos Aires, they serve different kinds of complimentary breads with butter and/or pate. I'm not sure though if it was just my luck that the bread was freshly cooked or was reheated, in any case it was good!

After seveal sips of wine, the main course was served and it was good! (coz everything was good!)

And finally when the dessert came in, all i can do was make a smiley face made out of cold molten bitter sweet chocolate. ^___^

Norma's Yumpanada and Stroganoff supreme.

Again with the food! I'm not complaining or anything, it's just so... so... delicious!!!

Thanks again to Margarita and Ricardo for such a wonderful home cook dinner! ^__^

Just a moment: A Photo Collaborative

Good thing a friend of mine Rev, invited me to participate on an NY Time initiative to take a photo on May 2, 2010 at exactly 15:00 UTC which is 12:00PM in Buenos Aires.

So here's my entry. Note that this is not a contest, just people compiling a snapshot of history. :)

Dinner with the Quinteros

Since I've arrived on the middle of the week, Friday was just around the corner. And what better way to finish of the weekday than with new friends!

Margarita and Ricardo invited Sylvie, Bernardo and I to some left over food. Which I really looks like a feast!

and after some (a lot, really) food and wine. The group shot. 

The night ended late with good laughs and a full belly! \:D/

Hotel Madero

At last! Finally arrived at the Hotel Madero in Buenos Aires. 

The room was cozy and spacious and a small balcony to bum around.

a safe place to store my precious equipments.

But the highlight of the Hotel is the breakfast buffet! Fresh fruits, wide selection of pastries, cold cuts, cereals and juices makes me excited to waking up to another breakfast. :))

 

But alas the end has come and have to move to the Hilton as Hotel Madero cannot accommodate my hotel stay extension.

happy happy happy happy mushy mushy mushy mushy

Four happy years have gone by,
more happy years will pass by.
