Comments from some of the guests:
"M... and I had a lovely evening at your house -- the food was tasty, the wine was superb and the company interesting. In fact, we ended up sharing a bottle of wine after dinner with the American couple at the wine bar you recommended. We joked that we're going to start our own puertas cerrades concept in the States :)" - L.D.
"The food was great and we really enjoyed the evening. The wine pairings were wonderful, as well. Having spent two months in Argentina, I was very accustomed to drinking mostly Malbecs and only deep, red wines, so the white, spumante and rose were a yummy diversion for me. J... really liked the sea bass and mushroom empanadas. I don't know if this is something you might do differently, but I would have enjoyed one big table that could fit every guest. Thank you. We would certainly recommend Saltshaker to others." - E.B.
"We are still thinking that the dinner was one of the best things we have done in Argentina :) We realy enjoyed it. The food was delicious, good mix of people, tasty wine - that's our idea for good evening. We were just thinking that it could be an idea to have everyone at one table or maybe at three smaller ones. But it is minor thing. Overall we had great time with you. Thanks again. We will recomend dinner in Casa SaltShaker to everyone going to Buenos :)" - K., M. & A.
"We just returned to Chicago today, so I'm catching up on my email. Casa SaltShaker was easily one of the three best experiences we had in a trip full of great experiences! We absolutely loved the food, the other guests, the atmosphere, the house, the timing of everything. Don't change a thing! I'd recommend Casa SaltShaker to anyone visiting B.A. It’s very real without being intimidating, which is not easy to pull off." - M.C.
"Mom says it was a lovely evening, the food was terrific, the company and service sensational and the wine was spectacular. I loved everything as well. We both give Henry a big hello and kisses to u both. Sorry we sort of ran out quickly, but it was getting late for Mom." - B.P.
