Cassis Restaurant in Bariloche, Argentina
Dinner in Argentina can vary from grilled meat at a traditional parilla (which is usually excellent, by the way) to something close to a tranformative experience. I did not expect to find the latter in rural Bariloche in the lake region of Patagonia, but my trip to Cassis near San Carlos de Bariloche was just that.

db Bistro Moderne, Miami
Despite having read very favorable reviews of Daniel Boulud’s restaurant in Miami, db Bistro Moderne, I’m always afraid that eventually a fine chef will open one too many restaurants for his or her (or especially, the food’s) own good. That may happen to Mr. Boulud one day, but it certainly didn’t happen with db Bistro Moderne.
