Once frequented by tango legend Carlos Gardel, and writers Neruda, Ruben Dario, Lorca and Borges, the Tortoni literary cafe is an insight to the Argentine belle époque, even if you do have to line up with 100 tourists to get a look in.

  • It has the feel of Cafe Grecco in Rome...But the history of Argentina's greatest and most talented. The good news is that is open till the early hours of the morning, so if you cannot find a table during the day, come back after midnight and you'll find a different crowd.
