This is a bar, with loud rock music and soft lights. It’s not an elegant place, if you know what I mean, but it’s fine if you want to drink beer, whisky or fernet.

Food Scene
Italian Cantina to eat "fusilli with pesto" or meat balls. The old woman there kneads the pasta in your face. It's a whole experience. Don't expect any luxury. They don’t take credit cards.

Historical pizzeria from Villa Ortuzar. Tasty, simple, intense, and cheap. It's the oposite of the pizza gourmet. I challenge you to eat more than two slices.

Cocinarte
3900 Av. de los IncasOne of the cool places around my place to have breakfast or brunch
Mediocre grill. Hungry taxi driver's stop. The virtue is that never closes. I mean, NEVER. You can eat a piece of meat with fried potatoes, any day, any hour. In normal lunch hours is usually crowded.

It's a restaurant, though I only tried their pizza. It's good. With a very thin crust, more like a gourmet type, made in a grill. It's a good option if you want to eat pizza. They also do delivery.
