Cumana

One of the first popular, Argentine country style criollo eateries to take root with Buenos Aires' youngstah's. Crayons to doodle on paper tablecloths while waiting for succulent sliced steak empanadas, hearty locro stew, chewy mondongo (tripe) and other traditonal Argentine country eats - but right in the middle of Barrio Norte. Soft lights, rustic wood tables and chairs, country-themed knicknacks hanging on the walls create a warm ambiance. Mate and bizcochitos de grasa in the afternoon are a simple, welcome treat.
