Yes !
Last year I was there. In my opinion the best milonga in Bs As. I love it.
I´m brasilian and here there are many places like that, but the places are not so charming like La Catedral.
I remember many details and the music. The first time that i listen Gotan Project.
Very Good !!!!

It’s not for really dancing, but La Catedral is an experience all it’s own.I’m so glad it reopened after the Crisis of Cro-Magnon.

I wrote about it some years ago here:
