I'm leaving Buenos Aires and hoping to sell a couple items - PM me if interested! 1. guitarra criollo (classical/flamenco guitar) brand: Gracia model: Wilde Jr. EQ with tuner and 4-band EQ built-in like new condition - purchased 5 months ago, lightly used comes with case and two packs of good...

So I'm flying from AEP to El Calafate in a week through Aerolineas Argentinas. (Please refrain from posting in this thread solely to complain about this airline - I know they're not supposed to be great, but I didn't book the flight...) I'm curious about their carry on restrictions. I found...

I've been eating quite a bit of acelga already - works for cooked dishes, but what I really want is raw kale salad, and I don't think chard can work as a substitute unfortunately.

I've seen several posts on here where people mention being able to find kale but nothing specific. I'm having a craving (a weird thing to crave, I know!) and really want to get my hands on some. The guy at my local verduleria had no idea what I was talking about when I asked about "col rizada"...

Looking to get away for about 2 weeks to a month at the end of December + beginning of January, somewhere beach-side in Uruguay. I know it's high season, but the prices I've been finding are truly ridiculous. Does anyone have any tips for what beaches might be the best (cheap but still nice)...

My boyfriend and I will definitely be at Sugar tomorrow to watch the debate - hope to see some of you there! Since we're from DC, we're more than willing to chat a little politics with anyone who's interested (can't live there without picking it up)...

Wow, lots of negativity on here... luckily those prices are still cheaper than DC (seriously! DC has the most expensive beer prices in the US), and I don't like hoppy beers anyway :)

Which supermarkets do you usually exchange at?

Thanks for the helpful information! Definitely a lot to go on and explore - certainly enough to keep me busy for the next few months (especially inbetween all these tasty Malbecs). I'm especially excited about the Buena Birra Social Club and would love to do a little field trip with others on...

Hi! *My boyfriend and I just moved to Buenos Aires from DC (arrived yesterday and are already loving it here!). *We're hoping to find suggestions for the best places to get interesting beers in the city. *We're living in Boedo and already know about Cossab (can't wait to check it out because it...
