A Serious Eater's Guide to Buenos Aires and Beyond

Buenos Aires All Star Restaurant: Paraje Arevalo

Buenos Aires All Star Restaurant: Paraje Arevalo

On a quiet Palermo Hollywood corner lies just one of the most quaint, pleasant, delicious little restaurants you ever did see.  Simple in decor, Paraje Arevalo (Arévalo 1502) focuses on the food, excellent food that reaches a level that is hard to find in this city. Unique, inventive, with keen eye on presentation, the young […]

A Springtime Spot: FLORENCIO

A Springtime Spot: FLORENCIO

**FLORENCIO IS NOW CLOSED AT THIS LOCATION, BUT STILL OPEN IN RECOLETA** Florencio’s tiny café situated on a charming cobblestone street near the British Embassy was always a top choice to send visitors in the Recoleta area.  Even though it is one of my favorite merienda spots in the city, with only a few tables, […]

Asian Noodle Salad

Asian Noodle Salad

With asado season approaching, it’s always a good idear to have a few easy yet delicious side dishes up your sleeve.  Asian flavors + kilos of asado meat might not seem like a good combination to some, since Argies are accustomed to haute cuisine sides like the famed ensalada rusa or carrot and mayonnaise salad.

Paying What It’s Worth A La Gorra: Pagano Club Social

Paying What It’s Worth A La Gorra: Pagano Club Social

I never thought this would exist in Buenos Aires. A trend that has somewhat spread throughout European and American cities, but a model that seems very foreign to the culinary scene in Argentina: restaurants a la gorra. No set prices, you simply pay for what you think the meal is worth. Despite the economic risk, this […]

I HEART Bagels: Quiero Bagel Delivery

A long time ago I gave up hope on finding a true bagel in Buenos Aires.  I’d come across bread with holes in the middle, disguising themselves as the real deal, only to be severely disappointed by the lack of bagel goodness I hold so dear to my heart.  Luckily, thanks to the Buenos Aires […]

Niji: As Authentic As Japanese Can Get, In Buenos Aires…

With a lack of authentic Japanese restaurants in Buenos Aires, I am happy to add another place to the list.  Thanks to a tip-off from my favorite Treatsy and Lost Asian Buenos Aires food bloggers, I found out about the relatively unknown traditional Japanese spot: a hidden gem on the Belgrano-Nuñez border, where a Japanese mother and daughter duo run an […]

The Bacon Trials: Baines Best Bacon Delivery Bacon

The life of an amateur food blogger is quite hard work.  You have to go out to eat, take pictures of food and then write about it.  One of my most recent challenges included reviewing three pounds of glorious crispy, salty, American styled streaky bacon. And not just any bacon, the ONLY real bacon in […]

Peruvian Fusion Supper Club: Casa Jauretche

Puertas cerradas, closed door restaurants, supper clubs – call it what you will, this form of dining experience continues to increase in popularity with great spots popping up all over the city.  Since first receiving press about this trend back in 2006, chefs continue to invite a selective number of guests to enjoy a special […]

Loca for Sopa: Soups at Sugar Bar

**SUGAR NOW ONLY SEASONALLY MAKING SOUPS, CALL AHEAD TO MAKE SURE** In a country known for delicious guisos (stews), soup fails to make an appearance in the local food scene.  Should we blame Mafalda for the fact that it is almost impossible to find a delicious bowl of piping hot soup? Luckily, Sugar Bar (Costa […]
