Have you been to Tandory Restaurant?

We finally tried the much talked about Tandory Restaurant in Montevideo and we were very impressed.  The service was excellent, including the bilingual menu on a tablet with photos/detailed descriptions, and the personal assistance with our selections.  Between the four of us we tried the duck, lamb, fish, pasta and it was all very flavorsome and delicious.   For desert, I can recommend the dulce de leite volcano - yum!  Also, good coffee (including decaf!).  We got 25% off our bill with Itau and the total bill for four of us was $4600 (including all drinks).  We thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening and would go back on another special occasion.  Remember to book...it is a popular spot.

Does anyone else find these competitions in Uruguay ridiculous?

This picture shows the number of entry forms I received from one grocery shop (for my family of four).  Then I am supposed to fill in each form and return them to the store to slide them each into a tiny slot on a cardboard box to go into the draw to win - seriously!  Who has time for that?!  In this day and age of technology are you telling me that there is no easier way to run a competition than this antiquated system?  I think there is.  I do wonder how many people actually bother to fill these in and who (if anyone) actually wins the competitions... #onlyinuruguay  #mynanawouldlovethese  #1950isstillaliveinuruguay   

Why are animation movies never screened in English in Uruguay?

It seems that if you want to watch animation movies in Uruguay you can only see them in Spanish. However, sometimes animation films are released in their origin English version for 1-2 weeks in select cinemas.  If you would like to watch Finding Dory in English then you can from this Friday at Shopping Montevideo and Punta Carretas Shopping only.  You can buy tickets online.  Now if only they could start showing movies during the day and at more kid friendly times instead of the only screening of 9.50pm!
