Week end in Colonia del Sacramento ? Uruguay The visit of Colonia is proposed now by many tour operators when in BA. And many portenos are spending their weekend there during the spring and summer time. Go there during the week if at all possible. Be aware that many of Colonias old town restaurants are tourist traps and will serve very average quality and charge a premium price. Here is our recommendation depending on your mood and the time of the day so that you can be sure of what lands in your plate and actually discover new flavors and tastes : El drugstore for lunch to enjoy an excellent Chivito. Uruguay national sandwich. Together with a Pilsen beer. Uruguay national sandwich. Budget 15USD per head.
Lentas maravillas in the afternoon. Colonias best kept secret. Santa rita 61. Excellent tea collection, home made pastries, great garden and delicious argentinian owner maggie. 10 USD.
La bodeguita at night where you will find excellent home made and fresh pasta. Very good pizza as well as delicious postres. More importantly it offers a sea side terrace. Perfect for sunset. 15USD. Colonia is absolutely worth a day or 2 during your trip to Uruguay or Argentina. Leave your blackberries and iPhone home, and just accept to switch off your mind. Hasta pronto mi querida Colonia !
