Diego Felix, owner and head chef at Casa Felix, welcomes guests to his restaurant with the same warmth and love most people offer when welcoming close friends and family to a dinner party. The lower level of Diego’s home just happens to be where he welcomes 12 lucky diners on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings for five course vegetarian, vegan or pescetarian tasting menus. However, I got the impression his warm greeting had nothing to do with the location of his restaurant and everything to do with his passion for cooking.

On our second night in Buenos Aires, we walked to Bio Solo Orgánico, a nearby organic vegetarian restaurant in the Palermo Hollywood area. We were walking around for awhile before we found it. As soon as we saw the meat is murder graffiti we figured the restaurant must be just around the corner…and it was!
