Led by Buenos Aires transplant Pablo Del Río, Siete Cocinas threw open its doors in downtown Mendoza in 2009. Step into the old mansion that has kept many of its original features and whose open kitchen presents offerings just as it says in the tin: Seven cuisines from around Argentina. Del Río takes you on a culinary journey of his homeland to regions such as northwest Argentina, Andean states, Patagonia and Pampa, as well as Litoral and the Argentine Sea. One standout dish is the clay oven-roasted chivo (kid), a perfect representation of the Cuyo region where Mendoza is located, thanks to the way the main ingredient is cooked. Utterly tender on the inside and perfectly crispy on the outside, thanks to chef Pablo’s patient cooking method, this boneless piece of chivo is a meal worth savoring.
