A Serious Eater's Guide to Buenos Aires and Beyond

Villa Crespo: The New Gastronomical Mecca of Buenos Aires

Villa Crespo: The New Gastronomical Mecca of Buenos Aires

It’s safe to say that Villa Crespo is no longer an up-and-coming neighborhood; it’s already the hotness and has been for some time.  These grand gastronomical happenings are leading Villa Crespo into the food heavens, sprinkling it with that extra sparkle, and making it a hot destination for traditionalists and trendsetters alike. It’s the Palermo Viejo […]

Making Naan At Home: Homemade Naan Bread Recipe

I’m not the type of person who likes to bake.  I’m not able to make things perfectly shaped. I find it annoying to measure out exact amounts, keep track of baking times, wait for foods to rise, to rest, to cool. Then, comes the clean up, or not cleaning it up, and having to suffer […]

The Best Things I Ate in Israel

The Best Things I Ate in Israel

Israel, the fruitful land of milk and hummus, where the Israeli salads flow like Kosher wine and tender balls of fried falafel grow on trees. After I fell in love with Israeli food porn for the first time, our relationship has blossomed in a deep and meaningful way. Just like Tim Whatley converted to Judaism for […]

The Chinese Food Counter: Asia Oriental Supermarket in Barrio Chino

ASIA ORIENTALS BAR HAS CLOSED! BACK UP: MIAN near the tracks, Mendoza 1725 for dumplings + peanut noodles. Oh, how I love you Asia Oriental food counter. With your pungent fishy odors, uncomfortable bar stools, over-crowded narrow eating space and disorganized inattentive service, you always put that cherry on top of my already rewarding Buenos Aires Barrio Chino […]

Healthy KickMyAss Recipes: Roasted Butternut Squash, Leek and Garlic Soup

No one wants to read a food blog where the writer obsesses about being a calorie-counting fatty. But after a nonstop eatvacation, I’m on a health kick, trying hard to put down the pork and get my culo into shape. I’ve gotten a trainer where I’ll go from my sedentary-marroc-cerealitas munching routine to getting my ass to […]

Locos Who Lunch: Miranda Parrilla Menu Ejecutivo

Ladies of leisure, elongated business lunchers, sick day takers, ladies bitches who lunch, whatever your midday circumstance may be, this city is crawling with crazy delectable executive lunches. Usually consisting of some variation of an appetizer, main dish, dessert and draaaank, these almuerzos pose a perfect opportunity to get a more affordable taste of restaurants that usually charge a […]

Pesto Pasta with Sun Dried Tomato and Feta

Pesto Pasta with Sun Dried Tomato and Feta

Dust off your food processor or take out the dear old mortar and pestle because it’s pesto-o-clock. A pesto brightens up any boring pasta recipe, converting naked noodles in a stupid sauce, to a flavor-packed silly basil-rific tomato-y concoction.

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:

Arévalo’s New Local Hot Spots: Local Restó & Casa Arévalo

UPDATE: LOCAL is now closed.  Living in Palermo Hollywood, it seems like there are multiple restaurants popping up on a monthly basis. Although I find most of them a massive disappointment, there was one in particular that I happily and anxiously awaited the grand opening. The master chef couple Estefanía Di Benedetto and Matías Kyriazis, the […]

Minestrone Soup: The Soup That Keeps On Giving

Hearty, cheap, healthy and filling, that’s why Minestrone is always my go-to soup when the weather gets cold. Super easy to make, it’s like the soup that keeps on giving: if you are running out of soupy liquid, just add more chicken stock and tomato puré, if you need more hearty goodness, chop up more […]
