"Le Sud" has a special menu at 620 pesos.
There will be live bands in many places to dance "guinguette" style!

Only for the very Rich One's

Not that expensive by international standards of course. The degustation menu costs about the double. I was a bit deceived last time I went there though. Should try Crizia next time, or La Bourgogne.

Just go to DISCO, get a bottle of Cabernet, two baguettes, and a stick of butter.

Much cheaper than AR$620 and twice as French.

 

[Napoleon]

Actually, make that TWO sticks of butter. Because if you've seen "Last Tango in Paris", you know that one stick is needed for the baguettes, and the other stick is needed for...

...Tango.


It's so Fraaaaaanncchhh.

Actually, one of the most famous song of the French 14th of July ("Ah ça ira, ça ira, ça ira" = Edith Piaf version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzu01gO3pi4), +200 years ago, was inspired by Benjamin Franklin (very much appreciated by the French) who used to say "ça ira, ça ira" when asked about the US war for independence.

 

[Gringoboy]

I love French food, the French language, France, the French and most of all, French women.

Just go to DISCO, get a bottle of Cabernet, two baguettes, and a stick of butter.

That takes care of breakfast. But what's for lunch and dinner?

If I could spend the day making myself sick eating kilos of various wheels of french cheese I happily would. I would only stop to take on board several of those delicate little pastries they make....and the occasional litre of Châteauneuf du Pape.
