The second installment from Gonzalo Aramburu and team (of the great Aramburu) takes traditional dishes out for a new-school spin.

Who needs Starbucks when you can plot out your day and catch up on work emails at a stylish coffee-shop/mobile workspace equipped with everything from conference rooms to printers?

This Scandinavian restaurant serves the city’s most notable brunch in a sleek, modern warehouse space with a beautiful ivy-covered garden. Order the Danish smorrebrod and sip and swill one of 60-plus vodka shots.

Simple and seasonal fare served at a restaurant-deli where chalkboard menus rest on wooden fruit crates, walls are covered in bright white corrugated zinc, and the floors are painted a striking avocado green.

Resign yourself, before you even visit, to the fact that you will walk out of here wondering how a person can consume so much steak. It’s okay that you ignored the gruff and helpful waiters who suggested you take it easy. Blame the dark wood paneling and the inviting chalkboard menu. You were a goner before you started.

Francis Mallman is easily the most interesting, lusty, and rugged chef in South America. He's usually grilling on a pampa somewhere, but if you're lucky, you'll catch him at his elegant and welcoming outpost in La Boca. The neighborhood is sketchy, but the restaurant, easily one of BA’s best, is worth the trip.

Put on your Sunday best for high tea and garden dining at one of the city’s finest hotels. Finger sandwiches and custom Alvear blend tea are delivered by servers wearing white gloves. Make reservations in advance and ask to sit in the courtyard.

The modern cafe hangout for locals is an ideal spot for a quick lunch or a long, leisurely brunch. Try the smoked eggplant and goat cheese croquettes for a savory afternoon treat.

You haven't been to Buenos Aires if you haven't tried fugazetta, a tomato-less pizza with onions, and mozzarella melted on an airy flat bread with a thick, flaky crust. Grab a slice at one of the city's oldest and best pizzerias and wash it down with a bottle of Quilmes.

Part restaurant, part lounge, the industrial basement space is a local favorite for its international cuisine and expertly crafted cocktails. Head barman Ludovico de Biaggi has been mixing drinks since the age of 13.

When in Buenos Aires, eat grass-fed beef. Lots of it, especially as lomo (sirloin). This is one of the city's best parrillas, full of old-timey gaucho style.

Dont be fooled by the small, unassuming space and the limited menu. Star chef Germán Martitegui, of Olsen and Casa Cruz, is doing impressive Argentine food here, and it will be one of the meals you talk about when you leave.

Sushi meets ceviche at the excellent Palermo Hollywood restaurant specializing in Japanese food with a Peruvian twist.
