La Biela is an Argentine institution, "the best in all of Buenos Aires," according to our elderly neighbors. It is a place where locals come for an afternoon coffee, beer or dessert. A group of men gathered at one table this afternoon while we were there, wearing their old fashioned suits and bow ties, sipping their espressos and having a jolly conversation with one another.

This cafe is such a great place, partly because of the food and drinks and partly because of its location. Just outside this restaurant is a huge, 200-year-old rubber tree. There are several benches situated around the tree, and lots of people milling about selling things or playing music.
