Van Koning Bar
11 p.m. St. Patty's Day. When will I learn that porteños rise after 2 a.m?
After Belgrano, Las Cañitas is my favourite Buenos Aires barrio. The best place to grab a pinta in Las Cañitas is at Van Koning Bar. Dark, drafty and illuminated by only candles, it reminds of ghostly haunts like Gordon’s Wine Bar in London, England. What joy!
Mostly candle lit, but electricity isn't far!

I possess great compassion and seek to be of service to others. 
thanks for the tip! I’ll check it out. I find myself in Las Cañitas all the time- I really like it there- I always go to Belgrano and then walk through Las Cañitas to get back home, which is what I did yesterday. I think I may want to move to that neighborhood…
Yeah it’s an awesome area, and kind of undiscovered by the expatriate community.
