Cafe San Juan in San Telmo was a wonderful find

the braised rabbit with polenta was my favourite - crispy wedges of cheesy polenta which added to the delicate rabbit

the gnocchi were the lightest I've ever eaten and the cream based sauce had rich roasted tomatoes and eggplants.  almost enough to turn me vegetarian (but perhaps not in Argentina...)

we had three gnocchis for a table of 8 and barely made a dent in it.  one of those fabulous dishes that fills you without filling you (if you know what i mean)

a range of desserts were ordered - creme brulee, chocolate terrine (here) and a tart passionfruit bavarois which tempted even us non-dessert eaters, and then tempted us some more
