OK, maybe not the best, but it just got a whole lot better for me personally.
Thanks to Miles for the pointer to the covered market. I wandered down there with my little lad today and bought some pretty good fresh vegetables and some nice looking chicken - looks corn-fed and I'm guessing almost certainly free-range. Darned expensive, all of it, but isn't everything these days!
Wasn't so impressed with the cheese stall (only national cheeses) but bought a small selection of ones I haven't tried before - to see if any of them actually taste of cheese.
And here's the real shocker - I know this is going to sound like fantasy, but I'm willing to go back and take photos if anyone requires proof - there were teams of workers out repairing pavements!!! ('Sidewalks' for our American friends.)
Aah....mi querido San Telmo, el mejor barrio de Buenos Aires!
