Gourmets: Casa SaltShaker, Buenos Aires
If you haven't yet made your way down to the booming social scene that
is B.A., better hurry: After a rough couple of years, experts are
predicting the Argentine economy is headed for an upswing, which would
mean an end to the rock-bottom prices on those two-inch steaks and
five-star hotels. Once you're there, duck off the tango-heavy tourist
track for a dinner at Casa SaltShaker, the local answer to New York's
Freemans (Freemans circa 2004, that is). Expat American Dan Perlman
runs this tucked-away spot in his home in Barrio Norte, where he cooks
elaborately themed dinners (past efforts have included an English
Renaissance spread) for a maximum of a dozen diners just once or twice
a week.
Approximately AR $60 per person. (646)
