Looking for AWESOME empanadas in San Telmo , Centro or Recoleta - what's your favorite places??

Piaf is awesome, in Hollywood, on Dorrego y Cabrera. It's where a lot of the celeb chefs get their meat. Right nearby is Bubi's, a German fiamberia y queseria that is wonderful also. Planeta Joy did a write up of the best carnicerias a while back too...

Just renewed my work visa and now it's time to renew my DNI. Immigration has told me I just need to go to Hipolito Yrigoyen 952 with my DNI and they can do it for me there, without providing any other documents and I don't need a turno. This seems too easy. Anyone recently renew their...

Is Mercado Premium organic? I just had my first order from Tallo Verde and was extremely happy with both the quality of the product & customer service

I've never taken a course myself, but have heard positive things about classes at Meraviglia: http://lacomunidad.meraviglia.com.ar/ Bio and Kensho also do cooking classes according to Planeta Joy: http://www.planetajoy.com/?page=ampliada&id=2841 Esquina de las flores used to offer FREE cooking...

You're best bet is getting jeans in the US and sending them down. I'm 6'0 and have only found skinny flood watch jeans that I can wear with boots... Check out Zara, those jeans might be long enough for you. The good news is Argentine girls tend to wear their jeans short anyway. I remember...

Doppio Zero and Mauro.it

Can anyone recommend a reliable camera repair shop? I have a Canon 20D EOS and it's having focusing problems after a trip to the beach... Preferably somewhere close to the D line.

Is it Los Sabios on Corrientes y Bulnes? LOVE it! delicious food and pretty cheap prices.

Yes, it is not a place to go every weekend, more for a special occasion but worth every penny. These days, fine dining restaurants will cost around the same price and in my experience, the quality is not consistent. I'd much rather spend a bit more on excellent food. After writing about the BA...

Just tried a new closed door restaurant on Saturday called Casa Mun. Can't remember the last time I've had such a tasty meal in BA. It's a 5 course Asian influenced dinner with wine pairings, and while it's a bit pricey at AR$180, totally worth it. The hosts and atmosphere are a plus - Chef...

Hey, here's a post on a rundown of happy hours in BA - it's from last year so the prices may be a bit off. http://pickupthefork.com/2010/07/04/happy-drunk-fest-buenos-aires-happy-hour-guide/ to sum it up, kansas and benihana have great happy hour deals in term of price and quality. some pubs...

You wouldn't happen to be nice enough and take a pic of the package???! thanks for sharing this golden information!

I agree.. nothing to write home about. Probably one of my least favorites in the city - there are other places (la fabrica and taco box) that are better. I've heard good things about casa carranza, but i have yet to try it: http://casacarranza.creadordesitios.com
