The Sincerest Form of Flattery

The Saltshakers en casa

It's always nice, as a foreign correspondent type, to be ahead of the local media. So it is with some minor pride that we note that today's La Nación profiles a slick new restaurant trend in Buenos Aires--hidden restaurants that can only be found, and entetered, by those in the know (Casa Saltshaker, above, is one). Not a bad story, I'd say. Especially considering it's more or less a copy (admittedly expanded) of a story of mine published in the New York Times on December 17.
