Happy Drunk Fest: Buenos Aires Happy Hour Guide

Happy Drunk Fest: Buenos Aires Happy Hour Guide

Bar at Kansas during Happy Hour, after they cleared out lots of empties. Note: This guide was made in 2010, and probably very out of date. Help me make another guide and tell me about your favorite Buenos Aires happy hour. Happy Hour should be called something different. Who came up with this stupid expression? First […]

Photo from Benihana’s Facebook page McDonalds, TGIFridays, Benihana and Starbucks – just missing a Hooters and Subway, then Yankie Town would be all set!

Chicken Club Sandwich, with real bacon

Posted on June 26, 2010 1 Comment

I have kept my secret long enough, and it is time to share… The Jumbo Supermarket in Palermo has bacon. Real bacon, not the prosciutto imitation bullshit.  As a nice non-religious Jewish girl, out of habit, I steer clear of pork.  But who can resist a crispy, salty, strip of deliciousness? Especially inside a tasty […]

Lentil Salad with Roasted Vegetables

I desperately need to ditch the bread and eat something nutritious after a week’s worth of crap eating.

Go-To Barrio Favorite: Bâraka

Posted on May 25, 2010 5 Comments

Homemade food, large portions, family recipes,  good prices, high quality products, inventive non-typical argentine menu, natural health conscious items – some of the many reasons why I love Baraka (Gurruchaga 1450, Palermo Soho).

Ranch Dressing found in Buenos Aires!

Posted on May 24, 2010 6 Comments

What’s with foreigners and their salad dressing, peanut butter, maple syrup, American candy? While living in another city, one should embrace the culture and eat the local cuisine…. Hellz no!  As sad and pathetic as it seems, I dream about shopping in an  American supermarket… oh, the inappropriate things I would do for just one […]

Florencio Bistró & Patisserie

Posted on March 20, 2010 12 Comments

Florencio Bistró & Patisserie

On a small cobblestone street behind the British Embassy in Recoleta you can find the cutest little café bistro you ever did see. Florencio (Francisco de Vittoria 2363) fits only about 10-15 people with 5 small tables inside and one small table outside on the sidewalk. The menu includes items like sandwiches, tartas, baked goods, […]

Buenos Aires food prices soar with no food to buy

Posted on March 6, 2010 Leave a Comment

Reports have shown that food and drink prices have risen an average of 3.5% in the last 15 days in February. Most notably, meat has risen 18% and fruit and vegetables 10%. This didn’t really make a difference because there was no food to buy anyway.

Big MAMMA

Posted on February 20, 2010 2 Comments

Oh, how I crave a corned beef sandwich from a real, authentic deli… I would do anything for a mile high stacked Reuben, all seasoned bagels with cream cheese, a complete lox plate, big kosher dill crunchy pickles, smiley face or black and white cookie yummm. My jew gene has definitely been in full force, […]

Happy Valentine’s Day, here’s a miniature burger

Happy Valentine’s Day, here’s a miniature burger

The mini food trend has hit BA and I hope it doesn’t stick. BeFrika, on the corner of Junin and French in Recoleta, is the first restaurant to serve higher class gourmet hamburgers, and they are tiny as hell.
