Alex, it's all described on Kensho's blog. He was operating a puerta cerrada that was written up in the NYTimes a couple of years ago http://travel.nytimes.com/2008/01/27.../27dayout.html

I just went there tonight (or now last night) and I liked it. Its nice, modern simple design, with I would say new fusion style of cooking. We choose the set meal, which was 120 pesos per pserson. A fair price, not cheap but not over priced. You can also choose your own dishes which may come out less depending on what you order. I found the food to be good, but not sure everyone in general will like it? Its was mix of Asian (Chinese), middle eastern and local infulences. They also serve varios drinks and wines.

Its new location, and there was not many people there. I do hope it becomes busier, but it may not suit local tastes maybe. The area is interesting area, its an area of older buildings and seems that become newer trendy areas of cafes and bars.

Just a note, I took the subway (line B) and had a long walk there past some interesting neighboorhoods that maybe are unsafe after dark, but where this restaurant is fine and safe. I would reccomend take a taxi or drive (which my friend did from nearby Palermo) than the subway. And for thoose that do not know this area, there lots of bars, cafes open late into the morning so lots else to besides dinner.

For people who can eat Cheese (not Vegan), try blue Cheese Pizza, for me was nice. Not sure its common dish, but some Pizza shops have it.

Blue Cheese is a popular ingredient for Pizza in Buenos Aires.... it should be available upon request at most places that have Pizza on the Menu.
