During a recent visit to Via Argentina I saw a nice looking sign of a restaurant called El Pavo Real Restaurant Bar (The Peacock). Many years ago, I used to take Texaco visitors to a restaurant with this same name, but it was located somewhere else in the financial area of the city.
When I came home, I searched for this place in an effort to write about its characteristics. Couldn’t find anything in the Internet regarding this elusive bird. After two weeks I called it quits. If any of the readers of Lingua Franca has been to El Pavo Real at Via Argentina I would appreciate if you would come forward and share with us your experience there.
I didn’t return home empty-handed. At least I got a glimpse at the bird. Here are a couple of pictures of El Pavo Real. Here we go.

Remember, if you see this bird, let us know. We’ll be waiting. Good Day.
