La Calle de los Naranjos is an interesting restaurant cuisine that is on 25 May 272, the historic heart of San Isidro and 2 blocks from the Cathedral (Avenida del Libertador 16300)
Last night was the first time I dined in a restaurant on the street May 25 and was due to the suggestion of a friend who discovered the cuisine of this busy area of \u200b\u200bSan Isidro. Used car chaos during the day (Courts of San Isidro, Central Commercial, etc..) And the delay time has run on its crowded streets, was very nice to find a parking space where I wanted, including on May 25 and before the door of the restaurant. Really amazing! And rags in sight! Best possible, so do not worry about where to park as there is plenty of room for everyone. This is how we got the car at the entrance of the Calle de los Naranjos (I'm still amazed) and were greeted by a super nice girl who opened the important glazed wooden door and offered us the table gustásemos to enjoy dinner choosing on our part that stood at the window overlooking the street.
already ensconced and enjoying the air conditioning in the place (remember the heat and humidity of last night), we reached a simple and rudimentary letters that indicated the cuisine of La Calle de los Naranjos. Fish and meat ran the narrow range of dishes, along with the inputs and the wine list which was attached to the main menu. The truth is we did not know much of this restaurant and we did not know their specialties or their criticism. Also not take us long to decide to only five dishes available, opting for Trout with port sauce, pork loin with fennel and caprese salad to share (featured in the entries.) To was chosen to take water for both. Done
ordering and enjoying the magnificent cucumber dip with sour tartar sauce (much like the German brand salad dressing Khune Salat Fix), we began to notice how relaxing it is the atmosphere of this restaurant, starting with the old and comfortable chairs were arranged for all the tables alternately. The table is very big, tall and gallantly prepared with an individual color long board that is shared among the guests, soft to the touch and exciting to the eye. We note that the glasses were low and matched the plate for the bread (clear glass) in simple harmony, not to monopolize or obstruct the view between people. The environment itself is prepared with intelligence, shame the lighting is weak and does not show it, perhaps with some candles or other spots could show how, the violet and blue, an amazing way to fuse with individual tables , the ocher of the chairs and thick wooden floor ... not to mention how great blue wall of the north end masterfully incorporates two psychedelic paintings, creating light where there is none.
cucumber dip finish, the waitress came with our three dishes, taking us by surprise at the presentation of the food prepared. Trout with port wine sauce with mushrooms was covered with the souffle potatoes. When you taste it was a blessing to feel like this did not affect fruit sauce at all with the taste of fish lake river, accompanied simply avoiding excess grapes, really spectacular. The mushrooms accompanied with its subtle flavor, while the soufflé provided constant freshness and renewal against the flavors of fish and grapes, you could see how little by little the soufflé losing height as it cools, showing his hard and accurate processing. The trout was fresh, obviously with their respective fat due to be farmed, perfectly cooked just right (and when) with no cracks or traces of meat detached corroborating the experienced approach the chef. On the other hand, my dream was back with anise. I knew I had ventured to order a dish with anise and that if the chef does not know the properties of the seed, meat and ends up polluting the result being a perfect back-flavored candy DRF. In this case, the dish turned out to be victorious, with a good back-up, covered with toasted anise seeds that had lost its intensity with the heat and cooking (aplausos!) gave them a crust crunchy and tasty, ideal for feel a new and different flavor in the meat that we all know. Along with the flesh, a delicate sweet onion wrapped in bacon, accompanied wonders (perhaps more on the plate would cool) to a baked potato and decorated with a charred twig of rosemary ... flawless! Finally, the caprese salad, generous in size, brought freshness to your basil, dried tomatoes, cherry and Creoles, but the mozzarella was old, fat, and degranables, presented in grotesque and cut slices without interest, this cheese was very similar to the cylinder La Serenissima mozzarella sold in supermarkets for a salad pizza ... to forget and erase the menu (forever).
After finishing the main avocado and enjoying the night, ask for the dessert menu, decided by the volcano and Dulce de Leche Lemon Brulée. The volcano made me regret my brulee, seeing as the sweet milk boiling hot surfaced at the first onslaught of the spoon. This volcano had a wet mass, but consistent, like an American pancake, both in form and texture and flavor. It was accompanied by a small portion of whipped cream topped with crunchy dried banana. My brulee lemon taste was exquisite, with their candy without burning and perfect communion with its soft acidity. Perhaps the brulee was beaten or stirred too much, because its texture looked more like custard. Acid also was delicious and just right.
This restaurant has a very good kitchen and to recommend but with three contradictions in their performance I do not understand: 1) Quality of food shows a commitment by the chef that surpasses many famous restaurants, with dishes of more than $ 57, in an environment achieved with dedication and classic coastal design ... but in a letter presented to the diner made from simple photocopies (poorly done and even with excess toner!) Enclose, as if in some Parrillita summer at the intersection of Route 2 to 63. 2) The caprese salad: it is incomprehensible how one can pass from the complex and perfect combination of meat and anise seed to unpresentable mozzarella salad, would have preferred that this dish is not available, I felt that I was kidding. 3) At the entrance of the restaurant says COCKTAILS, but does not offer any.
La Calle de los Naranjos is a very good restaurant to recommend, with a privileged and convenient location, its attention is highlighted and the dishes fail to dazzle the diner. Ideal to go with a partner (particularly newly formed) or in groups of women, this restaurant lies a strong commitment and interest that few waterside restaurants still have.
The Price? Expensive but worth it: $ 192 in total. Ordered 1 input, 2 entrees and 2 desserts. Simple drinks.
