We would like to try some of the steak restaurants but since my wife is not a big red meat fan, we would also like some other choices. Can you recommend some moderately priced restaurants and in addition a really worthwhile expensive one.

Most of the restaurants there are very moderately priced compared to other cities. The best meal I had there was at La Cabrera, on la calle Cabrera, in Palermo. In Puerto Madero, you can try out La Caballerisa (i don't know if I wrote the name well) as well as Bice, an Italian restaurant. If you go there, you can also try out one of La Faena Hotel's two restaurants, which both serve great fish dish. A restaurant I really liked also was Miranda, on la calle Costa Rica, also in Palermo. Bio, also in Palermo, is a great place for people who don't eat too much meat. Finally, try Dora, the "must go" resto in B.A., according to many people. I have been, and enjoyed it, but really had a better experience at la Cabrera. Enjoy beautiful Buenos Aires!

I'm sure we'll return to BA one of these days, and perhaps we'll try some other restaurants. But we'll hit Dora first, and if it's same as it ever was we may not venture too far.

How about a report on your experience in BA?
