So says the description of the restaurant. This cozy little spot on the main street of Ushuaia offers a variety menu of the typical local cuisine just for you. They usually start you off on portions of different types of bread and your main meal. The only thing I dislike, especially down South, is the fact they take forever to bring you your check, you literally could wait there all day. Make sure you ask for it as soon as they bring your meal. The place is a nice, trendy atmosphere and chances are you'll find a lot of people here with their computers, just like how I was every time I came here. And nope, no American outlets or adaptors so bring your converter.
Favorite Dish: My favorite dish would have to have been the Argentine steak with potatoes. Soo good.

This cafe/bar was a pleasant place to get a drink and a snack. I had a small pizza, fries and a soft drink. The food was nice and filling although more expensive than average for a bar/cafe but cheaper than the surrounding bars and restaurants on the main street.

I had their lovely home made hot chocolate - expensive for what I got but delicious. The hot chocolate reminded of the hot chocolate I used to have at the closed down Happyness Cafe in Leeds so I felt at home! I did not think it was worth 25 ARP for an average size cup of hot chocolate.
As well as it being a cafe, there is a chocolate shop below selling very expensive chocolate. I bought a alofjar which was delicious.
Favorite Dish: I enjoy their home made hot chocolate!

I just had a drink at this chocolate shop/cafe. I had a submarino, a drink of hot milk with a piece of dark chocolate (shaped like a submarine) and you simply put into the milk and it melts - it is so delicious!
Favorite Dish: I just had the submarino.

I enjoyed visiting this cosy cafe and chocolateria. The hot chocolate is divine and there is a variety of chocolates displayed that you can choose from.
Favorite Dish: I had a hot chocolate and churros for 22 ARP on one visit and a coffee for 20 ARP on another visit. The hot chocolate was wonderful! The prices are expensive compared to other places in Argentina.

Eating out in Ushuaia is very expensive so I cooked most of my meals at my hostel's kitchen. However, for a change, I found this take away shop who did deliveries so, as a treat, I ordered some empananas and they were delicious! I ordered 12 which worked out 49 ARP including delivery charge. I was able to have them as snacks as well as a couple of meals as they were so filling! It was cheaper than ordering something similar downtown.
The takeaway does promotions from time to time.

Aside from Kaupe, another fine dining experience that we had in Ushuaia was the French restaurant Chez Manu. Like Kaupe it has glorious views of the Beagle Channel being located up the hill on the road to the glacier, across from Hotel del Glaciar. As food choices go, we had to pick between centolla, the king crab (of course), fish & seafood, lamb. I didn't try the centolla, but I can really recommend the lamb. Service was very good, same goes for the wine list. A bit expensive but definitely worth the price.

To be honest I didn't expect to find in Ushuaia such a great restaurant as Kaupe. Not knowing a lot about Ushuaia before going there, I imagined it as a small town where I would get decent food but nothing on the scale of Kaupe. Up to this point in my Argentinian trip I had eaten consistently well but Kaupe was an extra kick that showed to us that haute cuisine had come south. The food was simply delicious, Kaupe would definitely make the top places in any big city like San Francisco or New York. The restaurant is located in a villa a bit up the hill from Avenida San Martin, and it has great views of the Beagle Channel. The service was outstanding, and the same goes for the wine list. It all turned out to be a great evening. We managed to get in without a reservertion but I think we were lucky because the restaurant was full. I would recommend you make a reservation. This is an expensive place, but it's definitely worth the splurge.
Note - The picture of the Beagle channel was not taken from the restaurant as that night I forgot my camera at the hotel.

I probably should have included a second picture on the previous tip, but I wanted to make sure no one misses the picture of the food. So I included a second picture here.
Favorite Dish: I had to try the lamb that I saw in the window. The waiter cut off a huge portion of lamb and put it on a large pot like oven that was brought to my table. The lamb continued cooking at my table as I ate my meal. It was the best meal I had in Ushuaia. And this is saying a lot, as I did not get any bad meals anywhere.

When the cruise boats are in the habor its almost impossible to get a seat in this restaurant. Wait until the boats are gone for the day and return for a wonderful evening meal. There is a full menu of meat, fish, salads, vegetables.
From the side window you see an entire lamb on a spit rotating around the open pit and cooking. The cook four at a time. This is the best dish in the restaurant.

A: Are you referring to a guide who takes you to various places or a book telling you how to take pictures?
