Anyone have experience bringing cats from the U.S. into Argentina? They've got passports and have traveled before. Thanks for the insight!

Any February ones? I could eat Vietnamese food every day of the week. Just went to a super casual but great dinner at the new Asian puerta cerrada Gula. I also wrote about it on comosur.com. Take a look here!

Feria de Mataderos! So much better than San Telmo market and cheaper too. Check out the Gaucho museum and, hopefully, payada (the singing jokester show)! Also, behind the stage there is a guy with amazing gaucho knives with handles made from bird claws, bone etc! If you catch the feria at the...

Is it true that you can sell books in English to some bookstore in BA? I don't remember who told me this and now I can't ask! I know you can sell them in moving sales etc...but looking for another option!

Hi all! I am thinking about trying to bring down A DGT printer, a heavy duty printer to print images onto t-shirts. Its big, its heavy and its expensive. What are they going to say to me at customs in Ezeiza and how much are they going to try to charge me? I wouldn't even think of trying to...

Finally an optimistic thread! Ice cream at Rapanui on the corner of Arenales and Azcuenaga. Surprised no one else is talking about it. Have you tried it? Lemon pie is to DIE for. Feria de Mataderos on a Sunday. Browsing the stalls in the sunshine with choripan in one hand and boyfriend's...

I keep going back to three: Familia Gascon, Cabernet Sauvignon, 33 pesos, Chino Amalaya, Malbec/Cabernet Sauvignon, 55ish pesos, Fiambreria around the corner in Canitas, but everywhere La Iride, Cabernet Sauvignon, 35ish pesos, Quetec...

Sounds great! Thanks!

I am looking for a good spa that does facials and other treatments in or near las Canitas. Not too expensive, but high quality service. Any ideas? Thanks!

The Life of Pi movie coming out reminded me that I want to read the book. I was hoping someone in the community might have a copy they would be willing to lend, give, or sell me. PM me if you have the book! Thanks, Olivia

And what is it called in spanish?

Has anyone found cilantro (fresh coriander) in BA? I need some for a meal on saturday and I seem to only find parsley at my verdulerias... Anyone seen it at a specific supermarket in barrio chino maybe? Thanks!

I would! Question is would I have to go to ezeiza to pick it up?

Looking for very reasonablly priced sheets for a queen size bed and lamenting not having a Target or a Tjmaxx. I would also prefer that they do not become a pilly mess anytime soon. Anyone have any ideas? Truly not trying to spend a fortune... Thanks for the advice!

Hi Everyone! My friend just got home to realize that his macbook charger is completely dead and we are at a loss for what he should do. I myself have a PC so I am of no help and he already looked into getting a new charger at a store, but they said it would be 1,200 pesos and would take two...
