Within the framework of the 48th Buenos Aires International Book Fair, the AHRCC (Association of Hotels, Restaurants, Cafes and Confectioneries of Buenos Aires) and the Directorate of Heritage, Museums and Historic Center of the Buenos Aires Ministry of Culture presented the book “The Notable Bars of Buenos Aires”.
Present were Daniel Prieto, president of the AHRCC, Francisco Miranda, president of the Chamber of Cafes and Bars, Pablo Durán, secretary of the Chamber, Felipe Evangelista, head of the Notable Bars subcommittee, Julieta Vázquez from Bar El Colonial, along with Pía Moreira and Jorge Mayo from the Heritage Directorate.
Daniel Prieto, president of the AHRCC, highlighted that “behind the concept of Notable Bars there is a tjoint work between the public and private sectors which has been going on for many years. In this book there are many things to rescue, but above all there is great work by an entire team and a lot of history that we want to share.”
The book brings together the historical, architectural, artistic, social and cultural singularities of the bars considered “notable” and that are part of the cultural heritage of the City. Presents 14 neighborhood circuits to know them and enjoy them. The publication aims to celebrate and publicize these spaces that are part of the Buenos Aires soul.
The closing of the presentation was performed by Marili Machado and the pianist Leandro Marquesano with their show “Homenaje a los Cafés de Buenos Aires”, where they performed the songs: Cafetín de Buenos Aires, Café la Humedad and Viejo Café Tortoni.
