These things can be found all over town. There are several malls on par with Alto Palermo. There are also more places to buy fresh fruit & vegetables in this city than places you can buy empanadas. (Well, that's not true, but still.) Fish markets are in several places and cheese... well there are a few places, but not many because in general the people here don't like quality. Or can't afford it, so people don't sell it.Alzinho said:I spent a couple of hours wandering around Scalabrini Ortiz and Santa Fe yesterday - you live in a different world to what I know. A different planet completely! I saw clean, tree-lined streets, fresh fruit and vegetables, a shop selling imported cheeses and even fresh fish - something I haven't seen in 3 years! And a shopping centre that could have been in London or New York! All things that I didn't even know existed here.....and unfortunately stocked with stuff that's all WAY out of my budget.

Well it's a bit late to be telling me that now!Napoleon said:San Telmo is a dump.
Unfortunately I'm 4 months into a 2 year rental contract....and I'm probably going to have to renew that contract when the 2 years is up! I didn't realize how lucky I'd been in getting a 2 year contract without a garantia - I've found out subsequently that it's virtually impossible. And I've got a really nice and spacious place for $1500/mth. And I mean 'nice' by European standards....and that's pesos, not dollars.Napoleon said:Get out of there and let some NY hipster former art student come in and rent your place.
