Buenos Aires

OK...this is it...all things considered...Buenos Aires is the worst restaurant in Tallinn. It's not easy for me to say this and I'm not taking it lightly. I've been unfortunate enough to visit this place three times, so there's no bad luck or dark mood on the chef's part involved. It got worse - not better with every visit.

Let's see - the prices are outrageous, specially considered, that 80% of the stuff - yep that's right, stuff on the menu is just inedible. Without getting too wrapped up in higher mathematics I can safely say that Buenos Aires is in the same price category with the yard stick of all eating establishments - THE Fat Duck. The difference is that one is commonly referred too as the best restaurant in the whole wide world and the other is well.....


And WHAT is the deal with these round stacked wooden thingies? Either the designer was smoking dope or had been reading way too many stories by Dr.Seuss or just an idiot. In any case they are either disturbingly silly or scarily ugly. You pick. Well done - whoever you are.

The menu - mostly meat - forgets to mention that it doesn't really matter what you order, since everything will be either over-cooked or tasteless or both. So save your money and get the cheapest thing on the menu, chances are you are not going to be eating it anyway.

Alright, enough ranting, I'm starting to feel guilty for saying such nasty things. I'm not used to this and it's taken me a long time to gather up all the courage to say all these nasty things. ANYHOW...Buenos Aires - all things considered is the worst restaurant in Tallinn.
