Clark´s — Restaurant in Autonomous City of Buenos Aires

El original Gato Dumas from 20 years back is still here and though has lost its cache from that bygone era when he was the end all in Argie cuisine, it retains a patina of old school charm. The old parillas of yore are my fave hangouts when I visit Baires and I forgive them their often dinginess because they hold for me strong memories. The service is not however old school pro waitstaff, as it used to be where they were white collar shirts black ties slick hair and an amazing memory for your groups order .

Finally the apple crumble did not fare any better as it had absolutely no flavour. Definitely a place to avoid...

To the extent that it was uneatable. In fact we couldn't distinguish what type of meat we were eating. It was that bad that the chicken was the best, followed by the sausage. It's the worst BBQ ever. verging disgusting. We were also served a salad which was leafs with cheese dropped on the top. We are not picky eaters and we know good food when we eat it and this wasn't good. I'm just being honest and this is was poor. Clarkes can't be shocked by this because they must know this...
