El Federal, on the corner of Perú and Carlos Calvo, opened in 1864 and is one of 52 "bares notables" in Buenos Aires, along with Bar el Cao in San Cristóbal and Café Margot in Boedo, which have the same owners.
What makes El Federal different is not the food, although decently good, nor the beer, although decently cheap.
It is, you guessed it: the bathroom.
It shares a wall with the kitchen, which is basically a huge fireplace on which they throw large pieces of meat whenever someone is hungry. And that, my friends, is why El Federal has the warmest bathroom in South America. Purgatorish.
