Sunsets in Uruguay are unforgettable. An iranian friend has told me once that sunsets over here are as beautiful as in Africa. I've never been in Africa but I trust on her opinion as an experienced traveler. Uruguayans have a nice tradition. In some beaches of the atlantic coast it is common to give tribute to the sunset by clapping hands.

Spring and summer season are the best ones to appreciate the amazing sunsets happening on this tiny spot of the southamerican continent. I particularly recommend Punta Colorada, Cabo Polonio and Solis as some of the best places to enjoy this natural spectacle. The Montevideo bay is also special.

You should seriously consider adding this to your "must-see" traveling list when around Uruguay.

Anyways, where have you seen the best sunsets of your life? Share with us on the comments below..Thanks! :)

Movie Center at Punta Carretas Shopping Center re opened its facilities after last years' accident where they got on fire and had to refurbish almost everything! Bad for them...

Last Thursday, we choose The Hangover 2. The film is practically the same format than the previous, but you can really enjoy Tahiland landscapes and the so bad times and situations that this guys pass through.

Definitely a must if you had a tough day at work and want to have some fun!

Have you already seen this film? Tell us on the comments below! Thanks! :)

Sunday noon we went to the Cosmic bowling located in the Montevideo Shopping Center. The place was crowded, tipical at this time of the year..it's freezing on the street!

I have to say that I might be one of the worst bowling players in the history of the game. My score had plenty of 0000s but at the end I manage to make some good shots.

The environment is good. The service is not the best, but I don't have nothing in particular to complain about.

Anyways, what's your best bowling score?

Hi GourmandsUruguay friends and followers. I must say that this post has many objectives. The Montevideo yacht club building is one example of the amazing arquitecture you can find over the city. This decó arquitecture building was built in the decade of the 30's, a very special year in the history of Uruguay that celebrates other events with worldwide significance like the Fifa World Cup, the 1st one, which finally Uruguay won against Argentina.

The Yacht Club building is an amazing place for sports, events and leisure. You can become a member to enjoy the best quality sailing sports in the city, but the club also counts with tennis courts and gym.
The building also works as a great events venue, which is usually used by its members for private parties and corporative events.

To add even more options, the building counts with a great restaurant, which in my opinion is one of the best of the city, for its location, service and atmosphere. The restaurant is open for the public and its very recommendable to go for lunch and enjoy the view from the sofas at the balcony.

If restaurants is about, the Yacht Club restaurant is a must. And of course, if you want to try sailing over the River Plate too!

Range price: 35 to 50 dollars for two.

For all Gourmands interested in learning where the best beef meet come from, take a look at Anthony Bourdain's video in Mercado del Puerto, one of the most well known places to go for "parrilla" in Montevideo.

Is uruguayan meet the best in the entire world in your opinion? If you haven't tasted a good parilla yet, we bet you it will be amazing!
