Francis Mallman 1884 Restaurant

The peripatetic chef’s signature establishment is still the eponymous Francis Mallmann 1884. A destination diner’s dream-come-true, it’s located in the historic Bodega Escorihuela winery in Mendoza, Argentina, in the heart of the country’s thrilling wine region.

Last year, 1884 rated seventh among the world’s most desirable restaurants in a London Times list, and it’s easy to see why. The dining room is a study in restrained elegance, with its spacious ambience, cool marble floors, earth-toned walls, and high-backed chairs. The place attracts the local gourmets, but frequently plays host to an international crowd of wine glitterati.
