BA wine bar touted one of ‘best new restaurants in world’

(Condé Nast Traveller) These are the best of restaurants to have opened in the last year, our 2021 Hot List. They are the spots we can’t wait to eat in as soon as it’s safe to do so.

NARANJO BAR, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Chef Augusto ‘Aspi’ Mayer and front of house Nahuel Carbajo worked together at the city’s once-hottest address, the now-shuttered Proper. But they longed to open an easygoing wine bar together. While it took a year to find the perfect location, they’ve been nailing the concept since Naranjo raised its blinds last October. The duo convinced the owners of an antique bathroom-fixtures warehouse on busy calle Angel Justiniano Carranza, in hipster barrio Chacarita, to rent them the space; three months later they had the keys to the building, its façade framed by the orange tree after which the bar is named, and began an almighty clear-up job.
