Italian Products

[ARbound]

I was poking around the search tool and didn't come around much so I thought I'd ask you guys.
Is there a store or a particular Jumbo/C4/Coto/etc. that sells Italian goods?

I was under the impression given the number of fellow Italian descendants living here in Arge that
it would be similar to the way things are back in the States and Canadá. At the grocery store I worked
at I used to buy all the Italian goods I wanted because we stocked them daily. I've been here for about
3 Months now, and I'm starting to miss this stuff, and since I won't be in Italia until later next year at
the earliest (hopefully) I was hoping to buy some of these things in BsAs.

Anyways, what I'm looking for in particular is as follows:

DeCecco Pasta (I found my favorite kind, Farfalle at a Disco on Santa Fe, sorta pricy though)
Parmigiano Reggiano (the real kind, not the one made in Arge)
San Pellegrino Limonata & Aranciata
San Benedetto Carbonated Natural Spring Water
San Benedetto Thè (Pesa In Particular)
Raffaello
Ferrero Products in general besides Kinder Sorpresa & Kinder Bueno

I think you will only be able to find De Cecco pasta and Ferrero Rocher. It will not be cheap. For some toher stuff try geson.com.ar

All supermarkets carry de cecco pasta. Coto also carries barilla as well.

Real Parmagiano Reggiano is available in most of the larger supermarkets but not 100% of the time. Currently its in stock at my local coto (liberatador & udaondo) but it's not always. I would say that the best bet for consistency would probably be the Palermo Carrefour on Salguero.

San Pellegrino water used to be stocked in all the stores but recently I haven't been able to find it at cotos but saw it the other day at the Jumbo on Cerviño in Palermo.

Last time I saw the limonata was actually at the kiosko next to the Yacht club in puerto madero. If I were looking at supermarkets I'd reccomend looking at the Jumbo and carrefour that I mentioned above.

Haven't ever seen Raffaello here but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Valenti has some great stuff , but you have to pay top price for it ..........

I have found the weirdest stuff in the supermarkets in china town. Last summer I found the pasta in the brown paper bag wrap, ( I cannot remember the name) my most favorite brand. Of course I wasn't looking for it, just found it and bought all they had.
You never know what or where you will find, be ready with money.

Thanks guys and gals!

I was going to head in to Valenti's @ Patio Bullrich when I was there a few weeks ago but I realized I was running
late for a date so I just peaked in the window/door. Looked very clean and nice. I'll likely stop in and grab some
Parmigiano Reggiano. Thanks PhillipDT, that's the Jumbo I have to go to in order to get my Jumbo Mas card
this week anyways so I'll take a look.

I checked out the site nikad, looked like they carry some stuff from Italy, but I'm guess their selection in store will
be larger than what's online so I should check it out.

There is a café on Arevalo between Gorriti and Jose Antonio Cabrera (sorry I can't recall the name of the café itself, but it looks very Italian so you won't miss it) that stocks a lot of Italian goods. I am not sure if they have exactly what you are after but it might be worth a look.

I have never seen aranciata here . We are talking about the slightly bitter variety,right ? If so you might look into the purchase ofd Hesperidina and experiment to see if you can get close to an aranciata adding sparkling water etc. It can usually be found in the alcoholic beverages section as it is used as a mixer. It has 26 % of alcohol though.
