I don't know about a specific roast to recommend, but I've been getting Puerto Blest recently and have found their coffees to be really good and not wildly expensive (at least compared to other specialty roasters). If you're in Villa Crespo and pick up the beans in-person, they also offer...

It would be nice if you could just elect to pick it up from Renaper from the start without having to deal with correo -- I recently spent an infuriating amount of $ on phone credit trying to talk with the correo people to identify a time when they could deliver it after I wasn't home on their...

Reviving this thread to ask about people's experience with Telecentro. We use Personal at the moment but are about to move, so we're thinking of using the opportunity to switch to a less-expensive provider, but don't want to be stuck with spotty service.

After we paid our seguro de caución, the realtor let us know that there would be a fundamental change to our contract because the owner is selling the apartment. Apparently they knew it was on the market when we paid our seña, but didn't tell us. We haven't signed the contract yet and don't want...

Has anyone had success getting a seguro de caución with foreign income and/or a new-ish job? We're apartment hunting and one of us has foreign income and the other has had a local job for 8-9 months.

Send me a DM and we can talk about it.

She might not have decided the price yet, it wasn't in the PDF she sent me and it doesn't look like she's hired a realtor to post it on Zonaprop yet. Posting my current rent feels a little too private for a public website, but if someone is interested in contacting her we can discuss that...

We're moving out of our current apartment in order to downsize, so I wanted to post some details about it in case anyone's looking. It's a 2BR/1.5 Bath with a dependencia in the Las Cañitas area of Palermo and comes fully furnished (see below for a photo of the living room). The landlady is...

If you're a Netflix user, you can watch it there.

I've tried some volunteering and haven't had a ton of success finding good volunteer opportunities. It seems like the food bank has some options, but they're way out in the zona norte. I spent a weekend volunteering with Techo building a little kit house for a guy who had been living in a...

Seconding this response ^, and adding that Casa China in Barrio Chino sometimes carries it as well.

In my experience they generally require the first months' rent, a deposit equal to a month's rent, a garantía, plus a 20% fee to the agent.

My question was equally a question about what brands' papel manteca actually work sas it was about where to get them, so just searching for papel manteca on ML or showing up to a gastronomic store without knowing anything about the brands wouldn't solve my issue.

I checked Doña Clara's website, but I don't know if I'm ready to commit to 40mil worth of papel manteca, just in case it's not good. I'll check the other one, though, thanks!

Reviving an old thread because I'm having the same issue finding papel manteca that doesn't stick. Any current favorite places to get the good stuff?
