Buen Ayre
50 Broadway Market, Hackney, London E8 4QJ
This tiny Argentinian restaurant is an established favourite on uber-trendy Broadway Market. It’s one for meat lovers only, as the house speciality is huge charcoal-grilled steaks, all imported from Argentina. If you’re super-hungry, go for the two-person Parrillada Deluxe – 14oz prime sirloin, 11oz grilled rib-eye steak, two Argentine-style pork sausages, black pudding and provolone cheese. And if you’ve got still got space, round things off with crème caramel or almond flan. The restaurant features simple decor, with the odd photographic exhibition hung on the walls, and a warm Latin American welcome. Their impressive wine list is exclusively Argentinian, but you can sample Spanish, Cuban and Belgian beers.
