Thinking a lot about parenting lately in terms of the differences between our corner of San Francisco and our corner of Belgrano-Nunez--can't possibly speak for the US or Buenos Aires... I think parents take things a lot less personally and take themselves a lot less seriously than many of the...

family friendly forum is a great idea, I'd be there too!

Hola! The really rocking playground in Puerto Madero is at the intersection of Avenida Rosario Vera Penaloza y Avenida Calabria. The playground is on one side of the avenue if you cross the street and go through the big hedges, there's another place space with a zipline, super fun! If you keep...

What: Bim Bap (spicy Korean food) Where: Bi Wok, Once

We're happy in Belgrano and want to stay close to this area, on the border of or in Nunez where our son goes to school. Our street is a little too busy (Monroe and O'Higgins) and we are hoping to move to a three bedroom or 2 bedroom with a very large living room or dining room. Anyone have a...

I agree with the poster who suggested empanada tapas--big timesaver! here's a yummy samosa filling from the one cookbook I brought with me to Buenos Aires: http://www.ivu.org/recipes/indian-root/seasoned-j.html And a recipe for an amazing cilantro cashew chutney from the same source...

Hello, still very much a newbie in town and on this site, wondering if anyone would be so kind as to suggest fun things around town for young children. I have a very active four year old who has enjoyed things like: visits to the Recoleta cemetery ("Is there a dead person in there? How did...

I've been lurking for a while but never posted, still finding my way out of being a tourist and more of a resident... I moved here three months ago with my porteno husband and our four year old son. Husband spent nearly 25 years in the states and was ready volver a sus pagos, as they say here...
