MBURICAÓ

One of Asunción's first gourmet restaurants. Opened in 1995, its reputation is still excellent. International, Mediterranean and auteur cuisine, with a few Paraguayan touches. Interesting menu with seasonal dishes and a fine wine list. The setting is pleasant, in a handsome architect-designed house, with meticulous decoration. Works by local artist Koki Ruiz are on display. A warm welcome and impeccable service. A classic to (re)discover, but be sure to book in advance.
