TRAVEL AROUND ....... URUGUAY



Discovering places! A wild countryside, famous beaches, excellent meat - for those that are lovers like me - and very good wine. Uruguay surprises...If you are around Montevideo and need tips, check them here:

Looking for an 'asado': La Perdiz, Don Andres, El Palenque and Terracota are my recommendations.

El Palenque: www.elpalenque.com.uy
Terracota: www.terracota.com.uy




Francis is also an excellent option. A classic of the city, this restaurant has an impeccable service and a variety of meats and fishes www.francis.com.uy



If you are looking for a charming restaurant , try Tandory. You are not going to be disappointed. The chef Gabriel Coquel is considered one of the best in town. Don't forget to make a reservation:www.tandory.com



Revisiting receipts of his grandmother, the new restaurant of Hugo Soca carries her name: TONA. After several years running the restaurant of Alliance Française, Hugo and Gabriel receive in a new address with the same quality as before!

If you are looking for a guide to visit around - Montevideo, Colonia and Punta, my friend Anelise is the person to contact : aneliber@gmail.com . She organizes your stay giving suggestion to enjoy your trip better, she speaks Spanish, Portuguese and English.


Maybe you are wondering about..... shopping. I think that one of the things more original that I found there are coats and wool pieces. The handcraft is also original. 
My bets are:


Manos Del Uruguay - The concept of that shop is really nice with pieces from several areas of the country. www.manos.com.uy





Don Baez - In my opinion, the most beautiful design in wool of Uruguay. Beautiful pieces to wear and to decorate home. Take a look:www.donbaez.com
