Tango is very popular all over the world. But Argentina has one undeniable advantage - it was here that it appeared. The amazing world of tango... Dance on stage with its passion and virtuosity takes you into the world of love and graceful performance. This dance originated in the city's ports among poor immigrants, gaucho shepherds and other unsettled people. At first, the dance was performed by two men quite cheekily and received its name from the Latin “tangere” - to touch. Over time, Tango became slower and acquired new tones of intimacy. Tango orchestras appeared. The dance was rapidly gaining popularity, and now Tango is one of the most sensual dances on earth, it teaches sincerity, makes men remember gallantry, women remember tenderness. The restaurant's interior creates a tango atmosphere, and the menu of several traditional dishes with excellent Argentinean wines will complement this romantic evening.
