It’s no coincidence that I chose to visit my family in the US over Thanksgiving, the only major holiday where eating takes center stage, giving thanks for being a bunch of total greedy foodface stuffing fatties. After 4 years of Argentine-styled Thanksgivings, it was time to celebrate authentic American food traditions, feasting until you can feast […]

Olsen: The Original Buenos Aires Brunch
OLSEN IS CLOSED. Back in the day, in the mid 2000s, before the brunch craze invaded Buenos Aires, Olsen reigned on top for THE place to brunch. Cool, sleek, modern atmosphere, minimal decor, beautifully presented food, extremely accessible prices, trendy clientele and a one-of-a-kind menu.

Barbecue chicken fucking salad 2. Empa-fucking-nadas salteñas 3. Fucking rigatoni in a garlic white wine […]
Another one bites the dust
I’m sure other expats can sympathize, when living in a foreign country, making friends can be a touchy subject. Some transit Buenos Aires dwellers may not understand the reluctance of the long-termer to befriend any other foreigner that comes their way. There must be some selectivity involved. Friends come, friends go. What kind of tortured […]

Doppio Zero: Italian Food Done Right
**DOPPIO ZERO IS NOW CLOSED*** With ganas to visit Doppio Zero (Soldado de la Independencia 1238) for quite some time, my intense craving for pasta finally drove me to this small Italian restaurant in Las Cañitas.
