Aldo's Vinoteca(San Telmo and Palermo) is offering some tempting lunch/dinner/wine specials lately. They post them daily on their Facebook/Instagram account. Also, El Preferido in Palermo has an incredible Milenesa and Los Galgos over near Congreso...is set up for delivery as well. Some more...

I pay into private health care at Hospital Aleman and it's leaps and bounds better than any hospital/doctor I'd been to while living in the U.S. Brand new MRI, dental tech, etc...The U.S. health insurance system is run like a business rather than a service for the population. I get preventative...

Also, if any of you were barflies before this and fancy yourself a craft cocktail some bars are putting together batched cocktails for delivery. I included the link in Spanish below. I know Tres Monos Bar is one of them though this page is lagging a bit when I try to load the rest of the...

I think the options from Americano BA (used to be LAB coffee Belgrano) and Kyopo (Flores) look tempting. Both have Facebook pages and certainly Instgram and are doing orders via Whatsapp from what I've read.

Have you been to Sheikob's Bagels? It's at Uriarte 1386 and they have outstanding bagels. Not sure their operation status as of this posting (I'm stuck abroad and not in my beloved Buenos Aires). But his bagel's are divine. They have a Facebook page and surely Instagram also.

I'm not a smoker and it wasn't my favorite cup of Joe in town. But, even non-smokers have different tastes. One not superior to the other. Just preference.

I'm assuming this goes for BAFICI Film Festival as well but still haven't heard. No mind because I can't get back into the country for it but maybe they'll postpone it and I'll get to enjoy later this year. I've been tipping folks at bars/restaurants/ coffee shops a bit extra because I'm...

As a US citizen, I wouldn't want to travel and accidentally take the virus abroad. I've even canceled two trips here in the States as I'm staying with my father who is 78. Right now people seem to be thinking of how this affects them but would you really want to unknowingly spread this to...

I am in the US now and was set to come back to BA (tourist seeking temp residency visa) in May. I'll obviously postpone buying my tickets now until the world figures this out. A friend of mine who is an Argentine citizen said her husband is traveling from Spain and will have to self-quarantine...

I feel like the best coffee is the cup you enjoy drinking until the last sip. All up to personal preference. I lived in Chicago for many years and the small mom and pop coffee shops kept opening and I slowly began to realize I prefer them to Starbucks and the coffee I had been buying. Just like...

For Roasters I still really love Full City (Palermo) beans but also buy often from LAB(Palermo Hollywood), LattenTe(Palermo and Las Cañitas), and Coffeetown (Palermo and San Telmo)-for my morning cup at home. Those that serve a great coffee outside of those mentioned above include Öss...

Is the Rentista Visa completely out of the question? It's the only VISA I qualify to apply for. In your experience what are the cases most likely to get approved? Would proof (from the bank) of a trust that deposits a certain amount (over the 33,000 ask) into a trust account that I'd transfer...

Buenos Aires has been fortunate lately to see many small roasters and cafes sprouting up. When I moved here in 2013 you couldn't find specialty coffees at all. If I recall Full City was the first doing terrific Colombian blends, then Lattente. And, the rest...shall we say...is history. I find so...

I think perhaps as a roaster for coffee to take away they very well might be great and since they went out of their way to help you perfect a blend to suit you that has likely amped up your love for them. I've also been into the cafe and just didn't like the vibe or coffee as much as I do other...

Thank you so much Steve. I have my FBI report on order from the US and will then get all my Argentine ducks in a row. How did you go about proving your income? A statement of the funds from the trust from your financial institution which has been apostilled? I plan on trying to set this up when...

Hi all. In regards to Visa Rentista...on the migration official site it says you must have proof of your rental income or "any other lawful income" from external sources. Would this include a trust? What are other forms of lawful income are accepted to be granted a VISA Rentista? Has anyone been...

The rest of my reply got cut off. Meant to say. How do they discern whether a person is just traveling around South America a lot or if their runs are VISA runs? I always wondered. When I first moved here I was in transit a lot the first two years between Chile, Uruguay and Argentina but not...

To be fair how do they know they are VISA runs Hi Maxwell. In regards to citizenship it depends on your home country. I am from the U.S. and as long as you don't denounce your citizenship in court or to authorities you retain both U.S. and Argentine Citizenship. The best thing to do is speak to...

Ragni on Quintana near Callao in Recoleta has amazing cheese and I'm sure a good parmesan. The staff is really helpful.

Last night I went to MALBA to see Los Knacks: Déjame En El Pasado which completely left me enamored with a garage rock band that never reached their full potential due to the dictatorship banning all music sung in languages other than Spanish. Los Knacks recorded most of their songs in English...
