Is this something new? I always thought without a WORK VISA you aren't legally able to work in Argentina, even if you don't have a DNI. (And with a work visa you can apply with AFIP for a CUIT).

English tourist takes a cab from palermo, driver rapes her, AND robs her. http://edant.clarin.com/diario/2008/10/09/um/m-01777927.htm

Admit that you are a hater, if you actually read the artemisia article on pickupthefork, you'd seen that it was actually a neutral specific review, far from pushing it, no one said artemisia is the best possible option and everything about it is great. And if you know about a good place for food...

For Chinese food, the best places to go are Shi Yuan in Recoleta and Hong Kong Style in Barrio Chino http://pickupthefork.com/2010/09/25/chinese-food-hong-kong-style/

I call dibs on the fan, where are you located? fan model?

if you are tight on food money there are groupons, daily specials, menu ejecutivo, half off days and the like, I love to eat out and I do so almost daily even if it means cutting down on other things, cooking at home is not crazy cheap either, my chino's vegetable guy is such a rip off I feel...

All I said was 'I agree to disagree' based on what I have seen, and I said I assumed we were talking about BA and not the whole country because we are in the BAexpats forum. Now I disagree with that judge too, I'm telling you once again, if you see coffee shops everywhere and they sell coffee...

Subway and buses remain at 1.10 and 1.25 respectively, taxis now start at 7 something

Man you are stubborn, you just completely ignored what I specifically pointed out for you, the fact that coffee is big in the very few big cities like ba, cordoba or rosario and not popular in the rest of the country where over half the total population don't drink it as much, lowering the...

I'm taking about the city, not the whole country, unless specified all threads are about the city of BA, of course they won't be drinking coffee in say Formosa, the rest of the country lowers the national average by a lot, there is no way in hell a porteno average is 1 kg/year, I'm talking about...

Yeah 6kg of mate, also a lot of asado too, but that's not the point, I've heard of only 1 place in the city where they serve mate, coffee on the other hand is sold even at kioskos. Coffee is huge here and I'd say argentines drink a lot of it, it may be bad coffee, it may be expensive, but it's...

So taking 100 pesos from them by force is OK because they are idiots who drove there? I can't believe how anyone can support this, people say 'it's only 20 pesos!', but that's exactly why they are there giving people shit, scratching cars and taking their money. Hey how about you send me a...

Had coffee at oui oui, malvon, le ble, baraka and fierro hotel, nothing special really, oui oui's coffee is actually so bad it reminds me of burger king coffee.

Argentines don't drink a lot of coffee? Agree to disagree I guess. Anyway starbucks isn't expensive, I'd say it's actually cheaper, I just paid 17 pesos for a small cup of mediocre coffee at a regular cafe in colegiales, for that money I get 2 to 3 times more coffee at Starbucks and it might...

This isn't 'finding an opportunity to provide a service' come on, these aren't nice poor souls in need of a handout, these are criminals, they're barra bravas, they are organized, these guys force you to give them money and not just loose change. The ones who operate near cancha de river plate...

How do cats survive in this country then? You make it sound as if cat food here is poison, yet I see healthy cats all over, if you chose to make you own cat food that's fine but don't try to freak people out by saying home made cat food is the only way. Also, I've adopted a cat from a shelter...

Wait what?? Since when is Personal allowing CDMA phones?? I haven't seen cmda phones in argentina in years, I tried to use one with persona some years ago and they laughed at me

I went to the bank today (StandardBank) and took out 800 dollars, meaning I took money out of my savings account in pesos and bought 800 dollars at 4.33, no hassle.
