Lonely Planet review for El Obrero
Ironically, the exterior of BA’s most famous bodegón (workers’ cafe; obrero translates as workers or working-class) is often illuminated by the flash of paparazzi bulbs as local celebrities pull up for high-profile dinners of roasted ribs and milanesa (fried steak). If your limo doesn’t arrive after dinner, don’t be tempted to walk – take a taxi, La Boca’s a tough ‘hood.
