La Catedral ^ Held in an<br />
abandoned centuryold<br />
flour mill, La<br />
Catedral attracts a<br />
hip, young crowd.<br />
Modern sculptures<br />
hang from the<br />
cathedral-sized<br />
wooden roof and a<br />
huge photo of<br />
a grinning Gardel<br />
hovers over the<br />
stage. d Map L6 • D<br />

Salón Canning & This elegant tango salon is<br />
justly famed for its smooth,<br />
polished parquet floor, rated one<br />
of the best in the city for tango<br />
dancing. Classes and milongas<br />
pull in a mix of locals and<br />
tourists, beginners, and veterans.<br />
Monday and Tuesday are the<br />
big nights; Thursday mixes tango<br />
with salsa. d Map K4 • Scalabrini Ortiz<br />

* Nuevo Salón La Argentina<br />
The Nuevo Salon has<br />
marathon milonga sessions on<br />
weekday afternoons and on<br />
Friday and Saturday nights. It<br />
attracts a more experienced<br />
crowd that dances al suelo, feet<br />
pegged to the floor in traditional<br />
style with no fancy flicks. The<br />
atmosphere is friendly<br />
and a bar serves<br />
drinks and snacks. d<br />

It is worth the trip to this<br />
outlying barrio to experience an<br />
authentic neighborhood milonga.<br />
It is best to reserve ahead as the<br />
owners close the doors on 150<br />
persons to guarantee plenty of<br />
dancing space. The idea is to go<br />
for dinner and milonga. d José P.<br />
