This Is Why You’re Fat: September Edition

Another month has passed, the weather got nice, titties came out, then it got cold again, titties went back inside sweaters, and everyone complained. Just like every month, September was filled with good food, bad food and my-diet-starts-tomorrow promises. Here’s the monthly rundown of exactly why you’re still fat.

The Buenos Aires Market

The Buenos Aires Market

There’s really nothing better on a sunny, springtime Buenos Aires day than trucking over to the Bosques de Palermo (en bici, of course), to dodge the slow walking-mate drinking pedestrians, collide with erratic bike riding children, and watch pre-teens on roller skates eat shit hard on the pavement. You might think it wasn’t possible for the Bosques to get any busier […]

A Latino Sandwich

A Latino Sandwich

There comes that moment in time when you stumble upon a special sandwich gem.  A sandwich that puts your stupid old miga-milanesa-milanga to shame. In my fake Buenos Aires life, I’d open up a kiosco-sized shop, serving killer sandwiches and salads, at a price accessible to most. Thankfully Latino Sandwich has done just that, helping to reinvent […]

This Is Why You’re Fat: August Edition

Quests for bloody Marys, a gastro-trip to the Ukraine, new closed-door restaurants, sandwiches and brunches galore, here are some food highlights (and low lights) of August eats. Oh, and a big RIP to my camera. It’s broken (probably caused by too much food inside the lens), which means I must take a food porn hiatus. […]

Put on your sandwich gloves, it’s time to eat some sandwiches

Put on your sandwich gloves, it’s time to eat some sandwiches

Where do you go in Buenos Aires to sink your teeth into that perfect sandwich? With almost every café and restaurant serving up some sanguche of sorts, only few really do it right. The ideal sandwich needs to have at least three important components to survive in the elite world of killer sandwiches:

Unwrap the romance-enhanced clichés, drown yourself in a pungent nose-stinging cologne and practice your sexy O faces in the mirror because it’s DATE NIGHT! Whether it’s a first date, last date, secret date, or a date where you are looking to get-it-onnnn, here are some suggestions for that perfect date spot no matter the situation.

Parrillita Transeúntes

Parrillita Transeúntes

**Parrillita Transeúntes is sadly closed** Buenos Aires may have a plethora of colorful parrillas, but none are quite like Parrilla Transeúntes.  Coined as the “Trans Parrilla,” this meat serving establishment, sharing the same space with both a library and community center in Barracas, puts Buenos Aires on the map for one of the only restaurants in […]

Café San Juan: Worth the Hype

Café San Juan: Worth the Hype

If Tony Hawk and Chef Ludo had a love baby, it would probably come out something like Leandro ‘Lele’ Cristóbal of the acclaimed Café San Juan.  Sexy Argentine celebrity mega chef, total groso in the kitchen, TV personality, reality TV show star, tattooed douche bag bad ass, and skater boy playa has made Café San Juan one of the most popular restaurants […]

The Argentine Food Diaries: A Porteño Eating Challenge

THE CHALLENGE:  TO EAT LIKE AN ARGENTINE, one day of consuming the most typical fare. A rundown of the most popular Argentine foods including breakfast, lunch, merienda, dinner and dessert. I asked some die-hard Argie culinary traditionalists what they ate on a daily basis, and these were the results… Disclaimer: It’s important to clarify that this is a massive generalization […]

Homemade Cookin’ at Caseros

Homemade Cookin’ at Caseros

“Ideal para gente cool de entre 25 y 40 años,” this is how Planeta Joy describes Caseros (Av. Caseros 486), a “bodegón chic” in San Telmo.  If this is the case, then I guess I am sort of obligated to try it as my ultimate goal in life is to be una persona cool that lunches […]
