Product of the day: Bocadito Marroc

Argentina’s answer to a Reese’s peanut butter cup, there’s something about the smooth velvety chocolate square that makes it impossible to pop just one. It’s made by Felfort (RIP Ricky) and this lil’ nug of layered chocolate-peanut crack is always around to pick you up in the morning, melt away your afternoon drama, and put […]

The Palermo Detox Cleanse: Jugoterapia at The Factory Juice Bar

In a city filled with a bunch of crazies who regularly reference their intimate therapy sessions amid casual conversation, it’s only natural (and equally crazy) for a new type of therapist to peek its head into the game: Jugoterapia aka Juice Therapy aka a cleanse, detox, juicing, skinny bitch lunch special, etc., etc., insert your […]

Eat Like A Pig: Chochán, delicias en cerdo

CHOCHAN HAS SHUTTERED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICES. PIG TEAR :( There was a day when I wasn’t allowed to eat pork. Bacon, pork belly, ham, sausages, ribs, chops, salami, and a whole wonderful world of the other white meat remained unkosherly off-bounds in my reform Jewish household. But my fascination for the oinking bottom feeder remained strong, and like […]

I Got 99 Problems But A Café Ain’t One: The Best Coffee in Buenos Aires

The coffee revolution in Buenos Aires is here. For a city with such a vibrant café-going culture, it’s too easy to find a shitty cup of coffee. Poor quality beans are most likely sugar roasted, and made in a machine that hasn’t been cleaned since 1998. But no longer are the days when coffee snobs aficionados are forced to […]

The No Man’s Land Everyman’s Burger at Tierra de Nadie

Caballito isn’t necessarily known for its hopping food scene, but one diamond in the rough is starting to change that… one juicy hamburger at a time. A totally contemporary fast food jam that does circles around the neighboring competition, you’d think it would belong in Palermo or San Telmo but instead it’s nestled comfortably in […]

The Lucky Chino: Best Chinese Restaurants in Buenos Aires

It’s time we all toss aside ground beef empanada filled “spring rolls” with fluorescent pink sweet and sour sweet sauce, say chau-chau to chaw fan, put down the fork, pick up some chopsticks, and tuck into a world of Chinese cuisine. Here are my top picks for the best Chinese food in Buenos Aires.

Teamim: A Little Taste of Israel in Almagro

Buenos Aires is no stranger to Mediterranean flavors. With a history of Middle Eastern (mostly Syrian and Lebanese) and Armenian immigration, each with culturally active communities, it’s pretty easy to find your face nose deep in shawarma. But this one Almagro hole in the wall a few blocks away from Parque Centenario stands out from […]

DOGG: Getting It On Hot Doggy Style

It’s time to forever bid farewell to your favorite pancho stand, because a beautiful all beef salchicha has hit the streets of BA. Packed with juicy beef, grilled on the parrilla, nestled inside a pillowy fresh bun and served with a glorious selection of fresh toppings and interesting sauces, all of our long and pink wiener-y hot dog dreams have […]
