Argentinian cuisine.
We went to the Rural Society in DC to try Argentinian cuisine. We mainly picked this place because we wanted to try a non-traditional (i.e. not Italian or American-style) pizza. We ordered the fugazza, their traditional pizza. It was cheesy with lots of onion. The portion was small, appropriate as an appetizer. I enjoyed it and would not have minded if it was larger in size.
For starters, we also tried their empanada de espinaca. The empanadas were filled with cheese, spinach and was freshly made. We lucked out and were served with an additional complementary helping of empanadas (why?).
For the main course, we tried their steak and organic roast chicken. The steak was good, while the chicken was pretty mediocre, especially for the price.
This was my first time at an Argentinian restaurant. Pricey and not worth it given the level of quality. Nice ambience overlooking an open kitchen. Although I do not have a benchmark to compare this place against, I would not recommend it.
