Restaurant Bio:

To know a great city is to touch it, see it, and feel it. Hear the native music ringing in your ears and taste the local spices on your tongue. What city better to experience than the great city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Generally acknowledged as the Paris of South America, Buenos Aires exudes romance, sophistication and tenderness. It’s a “home away from home” for even the most foreign of people. It serves as an escape for those in need of tranquility, it makes
for a wonderful place to seek thrill and stimulation and furthermore, it inevitably breaks open the shell that prevents us all from truly experiencing the meaning of life.

Three things that come to mind when thinking about Argentina are Tango, wine, and food. Tango is the heart of Buenos Aires with its unique candences and the taste of urban history in its lyrics. Tango represents the soul of Argentina. The originator of Tango and perhaps the most idolized person in Argentina was Carlos Gardel. It would be unethical to mention Tango without referencing the person considered to be the father of Tango. The figure of Carlos Gardel epitomizes the very spirit of the Tango. The wine in Argentina is made from grapes harvested in Mendoza at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. The unique combination of excellent weather and soil of this valley allows grapes to achieve ideal ripening conditions. Traditional dishes of Argentina include Empanadas, Asado, Matambre, Chimichurri, Pastas, Vino, Mate y dulce de Leche.

It is imperative to mention the true passions and idols of the Argentine people when speaking of their homeland. In addition to the celebrated Carlos Gardel, another man the Argentine people all over still commemorate is the famous Juan Manuel Fangio, otherwise known as The Maestro, was a legendary race car driver famous for winning a race at the slowest possible speed. His record of wins against starts may probably never be matched in Tennis Guillermo Vilas and Gabriela Sabatini and Juilo Bocca.

Buenos Aires offers a variety of options, the feel of this magical city changes with her unique Barrios, the word for neighborhoods. If you are seeking thrill and excitement, La Boca would be the neighborhood for you. It is the oldest neighborhood of the city, and it still maintains its colonial air with its cobblestone streets and century old buildings. It is popular, colorful and the architecture is remarkable. It is the home of the famous and reputable La Boca futbol (soccer) team. The Boca Juniors is one of the biggest soccer teams in Argentina and included players such as the great Diego Maradona. Their stadium, La Bombonera, is not so surprisingly located in the La Boca barrio. Buenos Aires gave new life to its old port, turning Puerto Madero into a popular tourist attraction and beautiful place to visit. It is one of the most novel, urban projects of the last decade. The best restaurants are located by the port. Drinking a cup of coffee while enjoying the view of Rio de la Plata is something worth doing. La Recoleta, an unmistakable Parisian residential sector of Argentina has the largest concentration of mansions, parks, elegant avenues, museums, luxurious shops, and the famous cemetery. The name comes from an old Spanish word meaning “to remember”. The name suits this place, for it is truly unforgettable. If you are looking for a genuine tango and real romance, San Telmo is the place. The growing buildings at night with their ornamental tops create the most picturesque vision. The sound of tango music resonates through the town while the feel of passion and fervor lingers in your body with each swig of Malbec grapes vintage wine. Monserrat is the historical center of Buenos Aires. The president and Argentine government toil in the very center overlooking Plaza de Mayo, a famous and beautiful plaza.

What makes Buenos Aires unique is that it offers such a rich culture. Visiting Buenos Aires allows you to travel back in time by experiencing and catching sight of a pure existence. The Argentine people are still smiling about the sound of a specific rhythm or the taste of a traditional dish. Family takes precedence to anything else. The gathering of friends and family gives the opportunity for happiness and laughter. This bliss is contagious. It’s a feeling that never leaves you.

Buenos Aires is a faraway place, both in distance and in way of life. It permeates your soul and relinquishes your inhibitions. It is a city that deserves commemorating, for it is one of a kind.

Posted on 02/15/2009 by: LIdiner User Rating: 2 Okay, I know they were too busy on Valentine's Day, but our entrees took forever, and they brought out the wrong food. I called to gently complain afterwards, and they didn't really seem to care. Very bad first impression.
Posted on 11/10/2008 by: metsfan User Rating: 4 Cafe BA's food is delicious. The empanadas were a hit with our group. I recommend it. The reason why I am giving them a 4 is because I felt "rushed" w/ our dining experience. Our reservations were for 6pm and we finally sat down at 6:15 when most of our party was there. The person who sat us down informed me that they had reservations for a group of people after us so he hurriedly directed us to our table. Do I really want to hear about the next group of people - esp. when I am paying good money to dine at Cafe BA? Also, it was LI Restaurant week. - perhaps Cafe BA should have planned better for the huge crowd.
Posted on 05/05/2008 by: spears User Rating: 5 Love, love, love this place... This place is a complete treat from start to finish. I absolutely adore the food here, and the drinks are awesome. Everything is filled with so much flavor - without being overpowering. I just wish their portions were bigger - I can't get enough! This place is a must when you are in Huntington.
