Eating outdoors is one of those strange pleasantries in life, whether it’s an outdoor patio, rooftop terrace, quiet backyard garden or even colectivo polluted sidewalk, food somehow tastes better while sitting outside basking in the aire libre. The Buenos Aires dining and café scene is all about outdoor spaces, where restaurants immediately increase in stock […]
My New Favorite Brunch: Hernán Gipponi Restaurant in Fierro Hotel
**Hernán Gipponi Restaurant is no longer in the Fierro Hotel** For those looking to indulge in an extra special, extravagant brunch, skip the Faena, Park Hyatt or Alvear hotels and instead boutique it up at Hernán Gipponi’s restaurant, inside the Fierro Hotel. After two visits this past month, it’s fair to say that H 2-da G […]
Flirk Down The Pork
One of my hobbies is tracking my website stats, to see what the cool kids are typing into google these days, and how they find this silly Buenos Aires food blog. After months of schizophrenically laughing about hundreds of terms to myself, it’s time to share the pure google-search gold. For this first post on the […]
The Great Blogger Cookie Swap: Salted Caramel Brownie Pillow Cookies
This year I participated in the Great Blogger Cookie Swap where I exchanged three dozen cookies with local Argentine bloggers. What is a cookie swap, might you ask? Here’s how it works: participants need to sign up (it’s free), shortly after each participant gets an e-mail with the address of three bloggers in your city, then […]
Spring Recipe: My Favorite Chopped Salad
This is honestly my favorite salad ever. Packed with fresh veggies, healthy, crispy, delicious. I’ve said this many times before, if you can boil water and have the patience to chop a shitload of vegetables, you can make this salad (or a variation of it). The key? High quality vegetables. This recipe replaces my old […]
The Great: MARFA Delivery
The day I discovered Marfa marked a great day in my Buenos Aires history. June 2010: The Rio de la Plata parted and Moses appeared holding a broccoli and red pepper veggie burger. This delivery food service, open for lunch and dinner, makes a killing offering a healthy-ish menu of bomb salads, sandwiches, veggie burgers, wraps, […]
Villa Crespo Is The Hotness: Best Restaurants in Villa Crespo

Thanksgiving in Buenos Aires: How To Celebrate A Porteño Thanksgiving
Just because we are thousands of miles away from good ol’ Yanquilandia doesn’t mean we can’t pile our plates high in holiday cheer. Personally, I’ll be eating a meat-packed asado for my own steaksgiving, but for those who feel that homesick food nostalgia during the eating season, here’s how to get in on all the thankful action on […]
The Perfect Plate of Rabas: El Preferido de Palermo
Long before Palermo Soho flooded with overly trendy porteños, when Spanish was still the dominate language of the neighborhood, El Preferido de Palermo opened as a standard almácen-like bodegón: no frills, attentive service, solid food. Since the opening in 1952, this restaurant on the corner of Guatemala and Borges has stayed true to its heritage, […]
Food Porn Depression: Yanquiland Chapter
I always go into a deep, dark pit of food depression once back in Buenos Aires after an extended vacation. Generally, that intense culinary homesick feeling comes into full force Day 2 of being back, around lunch time or inside a supermarket, when I get a huge cock slap realization to the face: the food […]
