What you’ll do

Eat as the porteños do with a culinary adventure planned according to your wildest Buenos Aires dreams, like popping past a busy al paso in foodie neighborhood Palermo for a "una milanesa, por favor," before taking a sip of tereré through a bombilla or enjoying a cup of aroma-filled café con leche. Perhaps you'd prefer to peek into a parilla for mouth-watering bife de lomo or see why Buenos Aires is the self-proclaimed pizza capital of South America with a bite of pizza a la piedra from hidden restaurant Mounir. Room for dessert? Make ready for a melt-in-your-mouth alfajor but leave room for a gooey glob of chocolate havannete. Dinner time already? Head to the swanky Palermo Hollywood district for bife de chorizo and a classy cocktail — cheers!

Excellent recommendations and very good service. If we ever needed something the restaurant didn't provide Fumiko jumped up to get it. We had great service at every restaurant picked and wonderful food, and she was understanding of our dietary needs.
