Cool Down in Buenos Aires
by Daniel Neilson

[Excerpted]

Eating
They say Buenos Aires is a place to live in, not just to visit. And for porteños, as Buenos Aires residents are called, this means eating, sitting in coffee shops, having a glass of wine, and eating some more. The meat here is predictably exceptional and reasonably priced. For one of the best, munch your way through an entire cow at Las Lilas in the expensive Puerto Madero area. For pasta and veggie, follow Madonna to the creative and cheery Filo. But for the most original menu, inspired by anything from Mother Goose to, erm, cryogenically preserved people, try Casa SaltShaker in the home (yep, home) of US chef Dan Perlman.
