As a former vegetarian for many years, once I moved to Buenos Aires I quickly put a halt to my plant-eating ways and succumbed to the carnivorous lure of the beef. For those strong-willed who have yet to cross over to the dark side, make sure to not fall victim of the endless cheese and […]
Israeli Food Porn
After a two week trip to Israel on Birthright, on the four meal per day regime, I quickly became obsessed with all things food in the Middle East: fresh chopped vegetables, iced cafés, salads, Israeli breakfasts, homemade breads, fresh fish and tahina-rich flavors. Here is my recap of my best food finds in Israel.
Niji: As Authentic As Japanese Can Get, In Buenos Aires…
With a lack of authentic Japanese restaurants in Buenos Aires, I am happy to add another place to the list. Thanks to a tip-off from my favorite Treatsy and Lost Asian Buenos Aires food bloggers, I found out about the relatively unknown traditional Japanese spot: a hidden gem on the Belgrano-Nuñez border, where a Japanese mother and daughter duo run an […]
Peruvian Fusion Supper Club: Casa Jauretche
Puertas cerradas, closed door restaurants, supper clubs – call it what you will, this form of dining experience continues to increase in popularity with great spots popping up all over the city. Since first receiving press about this trend back in 2006, chefs continue to invite a selective number of guests to enjoy a special […]

La Crespo: A JAP’S (Jewish American Palermonite) Heaven in Villa Crespo
Asado at the Estancia
Every few months it’s important to get a vacation from Buenos Aires, if only for just the day, and venture off to distant lands like Zona Norte, Tigre or somewhere in the campo. Spending a day at an estancia (Argentine ranch) is common on the tourist-trap track, and after many years living in this country […]
El Asado Más Grande Del Mundo
Yet another thing for Argentines to boast about, the town of General Pico in La Pampa has just won the Guinness World Record for the largest asado in the world! With over 45 pairs of asadores (those who MAN the grill) and 13,713 kilos of meat, Argentina proudly took over Uruguay’s title set in 2008. The […]
The New Hot Closed-Door In Town: Casa Mun
CASA MUN HAS CLOSED IN BUENOS AIRES AND REOPENED IN CASARENA IN MENDOZA I first heard about the opening of Casa Mun back in November and instantly put myself on the mailing list. I’m not quite sure why, perhaps call it a sixth food sense, but I had an inkling that this place would be special. […]
Barrio Chino Stock Up
Barrio Chino is one of my favorite places in Buenos Aires where I still get excited every time I visit. Pathetic? Maybe. Hard to find imported products kinda get me off. This time around I picked up the following items: Coconut milk, mango chutney (not that good), Asahi beer, Sriracha, tofu, lemongrass, Kikkoman soy sauce bc […]
