Although the general situation caused by the pandemic seems to be showing a gradual improvement, country restaurants maintain their
prevention
protocols
, such as a limited number of customers, health measures, social distancing and, depending on the case, prior reservation.
In addition, to enjoy those dining rooms of
typical dishes of the Buenos Aires pampas
, the incentive to go out to the country for a while, discover new places and break the routine is added.
Here are
twelve suggested places
to consider.
