Favorite Places:

We visited Francis Mallman's amazing hotel and restaurant El Garzon for nowness.com. The inspired Argentinean cuisine is centered around a giant, wood-fired oven. In addition to the delicious food, we fell in love with the cooks and staff here, as well as the architecture and landscape. The hotel is a hybrid of frontier colonial style, and peasant italian vibe. We loved the color palette of the painted wood benches which dominated the gardens. Each evening we headed out to the sleepy town square, or a few blocks beyond, to watch the sun set over the grasslands.
