Garzón ... la Toscana del Uruguay
Garzón is the perfect destination for a day trip, a week stay ... A lifetime hideaway retreat. This blessed land has it all, rugged nature, rich fauna and flora, vineyards, scenic landscapes ... Garzón is mainly known for its vineyards, old train station and charming pueblo. But for some people, Garzón remains the destination to go when you need to unplug, reload your inner batteries, and eat extremely well. Because of its remote location, only the most serious travelers and epicureans end up making the trip. But once you make it to these bucolic hills and charming pueblo, you are absolutely captivated. Some artists and celebrities have elected Garzón as their new homeland and hideaway retreat. Not so surprising, nature is so inspiring ! While touring la Toscana del Uruguay, stop by Bodega Garzón and Pueblo Garzón's restaurants, they all offer a selection of traditional dishes paired with delicious wines from Bodega Garzón. The New York Times has recently promoted Garzón as one of the 52 destinations you have to have visited in your lifetime.

Restaurante Garzón by Francis Malmann. The restaurant itself is a pinnacle of rustic refinement. The decor honors Uruguay’s colonial heritage, hand-carved wood furniture, immaculate white walls and pristine table linens. There is even a place out front to tie your horse should you arrive via horseback. The menu at Mallmann’s restaurant is a glorious offering of locally-harvested meats, vegetables and dairy. The milanesa is a classic, as is the zucchini salad ... Mallmann’s classic technique is using fire to bring out natural flavors, like smashed-and-burned beets with goat cheese, flatbread cooked on ashes with burnt oranges, and for dessert burnt peaches and plums with amaretti and milk. The menu alone is worth traveling for.
