I have searched far and wide for real Mexican corn tortillas in Buenos Aires for many years. It has been a long and bumpy rapidita road, but I think I finally found what I was looking for. Whenever I return to BA after a visit to the States, that food homesick feeling kicks in. I try to […]
Eat, Drink, and Eat Some More: The Restaurant Rundown of 2017
If you asked me to describe the 2017 BA food scene in a few words my answer would be simple: beer bars, burger bars, craft beers eating burgers, and burger bars drinking craft beers. But looking at it closely, 2017 saw exciting new spots beyond the B&B craze. A few months ago I wrote about the 15 hottest new Buenos […]
New in Town: La Noire Café
There are a lot of cafés in Buenos Aires, but how do you choose that perfect coffee shop? The type of place that is unpretentious but serious about excellent quality coffee.

The Restaurant Bible: Where to Eat in Montevideo, Uruguay
If Montevideo isn’t on your radar as a Latin American food destination, it totally should be. The laid-back tranquilo city is stepping out of BA’s shadow and undergoing their own mini food boom. While Uruguayans still share an inherent love for pasta and parrilla, many are beginning to open their minds to a new world of flavors. […]
Nikkei Is the Delicious Love Child of Peru and Japan
Maido is the delicious love child of Peru and Japan, and also Latin America’s new best restaurant in 2017. A few years ago I wrote about one of my favorite cuisines in the world, Peruvian Nikkei for Vice’s Munchies. Last night at Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurants awards in Bogotá, Nikkei restaurant Maido in Lima took the […]
Budget Buenos Aires: Where to Eat Cheap in BA
Buenos Aires is no longer the budget destination of $5 dollar steak dinners. Dining out isn’t cheap, but you don’t need to drop all of your Julio Rocas to eat well because great deals do exist. Back in 2013, I wrote a guide to the best Buenos Aires restaurants for cheap (and broke) bastards. But with […]
How a Vegetarian Survived in Meaty Buenos Aires
When I moved to Buenos Aires 10 years ago to study abroad, I was on a 13-year meat-free eating streak. I had heard that leading a vegetarian lifestyle in such a carnivorous country could be difficult, but I was determined to stick to my diet (and still find delicious sustenance). I did it—with the help […]
