Melão: A Culinary Recorrido del Mundo

At Melão (Castillo 52), diners get the chance to sample dishes from countries like Cuba, Vietnam, Jamaica, India, Ireland, Mexico, Madagascar, just to name a few. Argentines, known for not being the most adventurous of eaters, are able to break out of their culinary comfort zones to try cuisines from around the world.

THE Go-To Barrio Favorite: Marfa Delivery

There comes a time in an unhealthily food obsessed freak’s life when she finds THE place where she could go everyday, never knew of its existence, and it’s steps away from her lazy-ass doorstep. After almost a year, I finally discovered Marfa Delivery.  I must have passed by thousands of times, with no idea what […]

Bar at Kansas during Happy Hour, after they cleared out lots of empties.

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).

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

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.

Culinary Tour of Brazil

I met this Argentine dude in my hostel in Rio de Janeiro. He was a 30 something guy who always looked like he was about to go for a jog — decked out in black Nike shorts with one of those light weight Adidas muscle sleeveless shirts. He had been in Rio for the past […]
