I bet you have never heard anyone say, “I went to Argentina and had the best salad ever!” Why? Simple. Overall the salads are sucky, consisting of wilted greens and boring unripe vegetables, either not dressed at all or drenched in some weird mayonnaise-based “dressing” sauce. When ordering a salad, many will respond in ridicule – […]
Patagonia in Buenos Aires: The Other El Federal
I’m always in search for a certain type of restaurant that falls into a unique category: Argentine food but not parrilla, milanesa or empanadas.

Blast From the Past: Pizza Piola
The 90’s were a helluva decade – over sized flannel shirts, baby tees, overalls, Doc Martens, yak paks, Pauly Shore, tamagotchies… I could go on for days. Luckily, I had a shot of nostalgia in Pizza Piola (Gorriti 5751, Palermo) and felt as if I was transported back in time. Back to the Bayside Tiger’s […]
