Le Pain Quotidien — Restaurant in Autonomous City of Buenos Aires

I’m not writing this review with joy… It’s not often I rate the food quality This low, as I’m really a lover of all different foods.

Looking at the reviews beforehand, I thought that I wanted to give it a try. I went here twice, due to an “okay” experience day one. I thought I could give it another chance, since I was in the nearby area day two.

Ambience: I enjoyed the openness in space and the way you could sit close to others if you wanted to, or have a table where you could be more isolated. That is a great thing, and I think other restaurants should take inspiration from that🌟

Staff: The staff is friendly, and once you get contact with them (for e.g. ordering), they are quick with responding and getting what you want.

The food: While the environment is cosy and welcoming, the food disappointed me. The bread that was served together with the main dish was dry (Very dry), and the Chicken & Cheese salad had some odd flavour that I couldn’t handle. I actually had to force myself to finish, which was really sad. Keeping the nose shut + taking a bite + swallowing with water. I’ve seen other reviews with the same dish, and I cannot understand what others found to be wonderful with their choice to be honest. The ingredients felt superb themselves (fresh and good quality), but there was this underlying taste that was hard to handle.

The Baba Ganoush was great though!

I feel sad when writing this review, because I Want to love this place for everything, but the food doesn’t let me. Maybe I’ll come back for a coffee sometime, just to enjoy the...

Two weeks ago I went to Le Pain together with my daughter to have one of their delicious teas and croisanes. We left such cozy place leaving my umbrella behind. It was not until 3 days ago that I realized my dear umbrella was not at home.I went to Le Pain to ask if they had found it. The lady in charge told me to come back in two days. That is exactly what I did today.The umbrella was there!!!! I could not believe my eyes!! They usually keep things left behind by customers in a storage deposit under key!!! I would like to thank the person who found it for his/her honesty and Le Pain Quotidien for keeping such a policy with their employees!!!...

Soy fanática de las cajas de Bigbox y esta vez decidí repetir la experiencia que realicé hace varios años atrás...¡elegí usar la Bigbox Bonjour en Le Pain Quotidien 🥰!

Hice la compra de la Bigbox Bonjour en Marzo ($1.340) y la usé hace unas semanas. Elegí la opción Afternoon Tea para disfrutar con mi pareja, la cual constaba de dos café a elección, un scon de avena y uno de queso, una porción de torta, una porción de budín, una mini magdalena de durazno con almendras y un coquito. La porción de torta que elegimos fue la de Chocolate Belga, el Budín de Limón y ambos café con leche 🙌

¡Esta opción completa y repleta de cosas para comer nos encantó 💘! El café es perfecto, el budín muy suave y delicioso, el coquito espectacular. La mini magdalena me gustó, cosa que me extraña porque realmente no soy fanática del durazno 🍑. La porción de torta es muy chocolatosa y está buena para acompañar el café, aunque tendríamos que haber elegido la opción del Cheesecake porque es más liviano (la vez anterior estaba exquisito) 🍴

Ahora...los scons sin dudas fueron lo más rico que probé, ¡principalmente el de queso! Me arrepentí de no llevarme algunos a casa porque, sin mentir, son los mejores que comí hasta el momento 😍 En general todo fue abundante y nos llenamos tanto que pedimos algunas cosas para llevar 😋. ¡La atención es igual a mis recuerdos! El lugar se llena rapidísimo dependiendo de la hora pero sacando eso el espacio es el correcto entre las mesas para no chocarnos a cada rato. ¡Volveré a por más 👏!

¡𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐚 𝐝𝐞 𝐓𝐈𝐏𝐒! Un dato para que tengan en cuenta es que el menú en Bigbox puede ir cambiando con el pasar de los meses como también los precios. También se puede reclamar la experiencia en un máximo aproximado de tres/cuatro meses luego de la compra, por lo que es ideal para armar planes por fechas...
