Mmmm....Villa Crespo restaurants.

salgadoalimentos

This is fantastic pasta restaurant specialising in fresh homemade pastas. Salgado was originally a deli but got so popular the owners decided to open a restaurant. The decor reminds me of a trendy East End deli, worn rustic tiles, retro deli counter top, simple wooden tables and a spot to eat at the counter. The dishes are not your usual fair that you'll find in Buenos Aires, so if you're looking for something a bit different then this is the place to come. To start, why not try the delicious spanish tortilla with chorizo or meat balls with pesto; for mains I love the asian salmon ravioli, beef cannelloni in a rich tomato pesto sauce topped withe mountains of mozzarella, seafood spaghetti, lamb and mint sorrentinos or the buffalo ravioli. There's plenty more to choose from, including vegetarian options such as goat cheese ravioli or gnocchi with courgette, sweet potato and almonds. You'll also find some traditional argentine dishes and interesting salads.

For two mains, a large bottle of beer, a jug of freshly made juice and slice of cheesecake came to $90 pesos. (23 US dollars)

Cash only.
