More information on Dora
This restaurant looks like nothing inside or outside, with its almost invisible exterior on the ground floor of an office building and plain brown wooden interiors, its walls lined with bottles of wine. Dora has been open since the 1940s (and is still run by the same family -- third generation -- that opened it), and while there may be more chic places to eat, nobody comes here for the decor: Dora is all about the food. It's loud, noisy, crazy, and chaotic in here, an odd mix of businesspeople from the surrounding offices and casually dressed older locals who have probably been coming here for decades. The specialty at this expensive restaurant is fish, though a few beef, chicken, and pasta dishes are thrown in too, almost as a second thought. The "Cazuela" Dora is the specialty -- a casserole of fish, shellfish, shrimp, and just about everything else the sea offers thrown into one pot. Appetizers alone are expensive, from US$4 to US$14 (£2.10-£7.40), but some of the options are made with caviar. After such heavy fish and meat selections, a surprisingly varied choice of light fruits in season is on the dessert menu. Naturally, with so much fish, Dora has one of the largest white-wine selections in all of Buenos Aires. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
