The Sartorialist in Buenos Aires!!

Next week I will be in Buenos Aires for a fashion event!!

I will have time to shoot around the city and maybe shoot a bit of Tango!...and perhaps some polo players!!

So, what boutiques, cafes and streets do I have to make sure to visit?

Also, are there any cultural elements (like Tango) that I can't miss?

Thanks Scott

OMG you have to visit Appettite Gallery at Chacabuco 551, San Telmo. Is the best art gallery in the whole world, you'll absolutely love it. Can't miss it.

You must walk down Alvear avenue for the most elegant boutiques. That area of the city (Recoleta) also has some delightful cafés. Then you must visit the Palermo 'Soho' area for most modern stores and looks.
The downtown area is very interesting, specially the lower part near the river, its european-style architecture and businessmen and women walking in a hurry in elegant clothes. This is near Puerto Madero, which is a brand-new, recently built part of the city with many restaurants and ultra-modern buildings. You must see all that.

Lucky you! Stop by the hotel Home in Palermo and enjoy coffee or breakfast on their back patio. Cute, chic boutique hotel. I could live there for a month.

Also, try to get a meal at Casa Felix: he's an amazing chef that uses locally grown ingredients and cooks for people in his own home. Getting so popular he's made it to a few U.S. cities. But it's a very intimate experience in his house. http://www.diegofelix.com/#

Ice creams in Buenos Aire are delicious. Persicco and Volta are the best

 

Blogger Valentina Martínez Añez said ... (3:43 PM) : 

You must go vintage shopping in Buenos Aires. Dont miss the Mercado de Pulgas in Palermo or the more touristic flea markets in San Telmo. For men/women clothes there is Vestite Juan Perez but the best for 40s 50s and 70s women clothes is Sra Mary in Palermo.

 

Blogger Notes From ABroad said ... (3:43 PM) : 

Ahhh Buenos Aires, you are going to love it here !
I live in Recoleta. I agree with Anonymous, the cafes (Biela) and just wandering the avenues..the Feria on weekends.. Palermo Soho .. San Telmo on Sunday.. The Belle Artes Museum, the MALBA and the Evita Museum and Cafe. You will love the museum, see her clothes and jewelry and shoes and handbags .. and the cafe is wonderful, we go there for lunch with Pup or just with friends for Brunch or to hang out in the late afternoons.
Have brunch at Olsen on a Sunday or on Puerto Madero ..If you like a drink in the afternoon, go to the Alvear Hotel to the Lobby Bar.. fabulous.
Come to my blog and look at my photos and get an idea of why we moved here :)

 

Blogger Rachael said ... (3:44 PM) : 

Yay I'm so excited to see your pictures of Buenos Aires! I moved down here a couple of years ago from California and I love it! Recoleta (as mentioned in a comment before mine) is a must! You will also find some street tango dancers in Palermo along Plaza Francia that you can't miss (beautiful coffee places nearby too). Palermo Soho is also a very fashionable place, try to visit Plaza Armenia, it has tons of boutiques and restaurants. Also, Las Canitas (which is in Palermo as well).

Of course, dulce de leche is a must here and you should try the ice cream, particularly from Freddo which is a chain of ice cream shops that you will find in most places.

During the day you should go downtown, along the street named Florida, it's crowded but you'll see all kinds of fashion trends and hurried business people and the architecture is great. Puerto Madero is near the river and is in walking distance from this.

More San Telmo, less Palermo

Palermo Soho (as its name indicates) seems like you´re walking down WestBroadway... nice, but too snob
so if you re looking for more real sensations about the city, visit San Telmo (that is actually where most foreingers choose to live when they come to the city).

El Obrero @ La Boca, good meal.
La Dulce @ Barracas.

Blogger Frenchimalvi said ... (3:52 PM) : 

OMG I'am so jealous ! I love so much this city.
there are so many things to see in Buenos Aires.
For sure, you have to go to el barrio de Palermo y Palermo Viejo (= more or less le Marais in Paris) with so many night activities, etc
La recoleta is a gorgeous place too with of course el cultural center of la Recoleta and just newt to it the so historical church Pilar and its "cementario" where is Evita.
San Telmo is like the historical center to dance or watch dancing tango it's crowded of artists too on the streets and little markets, shops and typical restaurants.
La Marina/ puerto Madero is quite turistic but gorgeous too with el puente de la mujer, etc
ACtually anywhere you go in Bs As is interesting not because of the place but because of the people who are so charming and welcoming.
All the place you will go to, you will find amazing food and meat (the best I ever eaten). You have to bring back to Garance if she doesn't come with you, dulce de leche, it's the equivalent of our french nutella (instead of chocolate it's milk + sugar. Muy rico, like the argentinians say ;)
Drink mate, take picture of people drinking this, drink red wine which is also so great. Eat their pizzas, their ice-creams.
At last, which is one of the thing that I prefer in Buenos Aires, even ever I guess, take a cab (sooo cheap), by night, and ask him to drive you all along the long and amazing avenida 9 de julio. Sensationnal and moving.
I may have forget a lot of things. But Bs As is the king of place that you experience by yoursel.
I'm sorry I think this is the longest comment ever (I become so excited when it comes to Bs As where i lived almost 1 year)
Enjoy your trip ^^
I'm looking forward to see your pictures and your vison of this place
and if you want, go and check this argentinian streetstyle blog http://www.onthecorner.com.ar/

You must visit Palermo Soho. Maria Cher, Jazmin Chebar, Mishka, De la Ostia, all great boutiques! Also, have something to drink or eat in any of this palermo spots: Mark's, Oui Oui, Farinelli, Croque Madamme. All delicious and super chic! I strongly recommend San Telmo and La Boca. For dinner I recommend Osaka (great peruvian japanese fusion)in Palermo, Marcelo (super tasty italian food in puerto madero) and so many more! Buenos Aires is incredible and people are super nice!!!!

 

Blogger sitsuneda said ... (3:55 PM) : 

I recommend you to visit the San Telmo fair (Feira de San Telmo), a great place to feel the argentine warmth! Specially at the end of the afternoon, when you'll can sit at one of the beautiful bars, drink some wine and watch people dancing tango right there, in the middle of the square.... It's delicious!

Buenos Aires truly is, "The Paris" of South America- not only due to its European architecture, but also in its mass diverse and cultural elements, such as the daily morning cafe' rituals and open air cafes.

One of my favorite neighborhoods, "Recoleta" must not be missed. The Recoleta cemetery containing many of Buenos Aires finest, such as Evita, is the perfect location for great fashion and city shots. I also recommend the "Faena hotel" located in the Puerto Madero neighborhood (Martha Solotti 445, Puerto Madero, BA, Argentina).

A tango show called "Piazzolla Tango" is filled with true passion. And, make sure not to miss the 'La Boca' neighborhood, and the "Caminito" street filled with vibrant colors and a piece of the malevo history. I found myself unable to leave upon my departure, and I wish you to find as much love for the city as I have.

Best regards, and safe travels!

BA is one of my favorite cities in the world, and I can't wait to see it through your lens. I hope Garance goes with you; I want to see BA through her lens too.

Boutiques: Tramando (fashion) and Humawaca (leather) spring to mind.

I'm a fool for tango, so I hope you take a ton of tango photos. Maybe in La Boca or at a milonga, if you get a chance to go to one?

Anonymous Mariana said ... (4:09 PM) : 

Don't miss the restaurant "Fervor" located in Posadas 1519 in the neighborhood of Recoleta. It is mostly visisted by locals and is now gaining an international following. The dining room will take you back to an era long gone while still maintaining a very modern touch. I am not sure if you like fish/seafood but their "Parrillada del mar" is incredibly yummy. Sometimes they have as a side grilled mixed mushrooms that they get from the southern part of the country, double yumm! You can check out their whole menu at www.fervorbrasas.com.ar
And for a little bit of gossip: Karl Lagerfeld dined at the restaurant a couple of times while shooting Chanel's SS10 campaign...
Also, for a late night drink the Oak Room at the Palacio Duhau is excellent! The gardens of the once privately owned little neo-classical palace were designed by French-Argentine landscape architect Carlos Thays who is the one responsible for how most of the city of Buenos Aires looks like and are the perfect setting for an afternoon tea as well.
I hope you enjoy your visit.

I was there recently and I think you should go to:

Museo Malba in Palermo. They always have some new exposition and also great work of art;

BarBar o Bar - A tradicional Coffee shop, where the artists use to meet, near Puerto Madero (Tres Sargentos, 415)barbarobar.com.ar ;

Grabatto - It's a stationery shop where you can find everything that you want. I was there last august and I went to this place everyday. It has a store near the BarBar o Bar. (Viamonte 502 esq. San Martín)
www.grabatto.com

El Viejo Almacen - to see the real Tango and also a good food!!!

Bs. Ar. is one of the most beautiful cities in Latin America and you will find everything special there (and people are also elegant there!). I'm from Brazil and I love my hermanos!

Have a nice trip!

Sart --

If you want to see Tango, you must go to Tango Rojo at the Faena Hotel. In fact, I'd also recommend a drink or two in the library at the Faena (in Puerta Madera). It is considered the best show in the city, and the hotel is absolutely perfect. Phillippe Starck did the interrior.

Blogger Gabriel Moncayo said ... (4:20 PM) : 

I live in Buenos Aires.
For a good brunch go to Oui Oui on Dorrego and Nicaragua or Cusic on El Salvador and Arévalo. I prefer Cusic, Oui Oui is amazing but it has become too touristy.

For the best drinks with passion fruit go to Green Bamboo on Costa Rica and Angel Carranza or to Olsen on Gorriti and Ravignani. In Olsen order a Mint, scrumptious.

For men's clothes go to Hermanos Estebecorena on El Salvador between Arevalo and Ravignani, and Key Biscayne on Armenia and Costa Rica. For the best shoes for men go to Terán on Thames between Nicaragua and Costa Rica

Women's clothes try Lupe on El Salvador and Malabia, and Jazmin Cheber on El Salvador and Armenia. Women's shoes try Mishka on El Salvador between Malabia and Armenia.

DO NOT go to El Burgues or Garcon Garcia, very bad quality in clothing for men.

Walk around Palermo Soho on the weekend, specially the street fair, also San Telmo for great antiques specially on a Sunday along Defensa street.

Malba and Fundación Proa are the best modern art museums, one in Palermo and the latter in la Boca.

My tips for Buenos Aires, hope they help.

Also where I study you will find a lot of design students where most of them express themselves trough their clothes, so a lot of tendences are seen first there. It´s called ciudad Universitaria (college city), it´s near the river.

Scott, you were given great tips by other readers. I would add that you must take a walk along Avenida de Mayo between Plaza de Mayo and Congreso and look up: the architecture is amazing. But also look at the beautiful doors. Along the way you can stop by the authentic Cafe Tortoni. And, if you want some typical Argentine food, just a block away you can enjoy a delicious "puchero" (a stew) in historic El Globo restaurant. Then you can ride the subway Línea A (that goes under Avenida de Mayo) which still keeps the original wooden cars. A memorable experience.
I can't wait to see your pics from my city. Buen Viaje!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (5:22 PM) : 

I lived in Buenos Aires for many years and worked in the travel industry there as well. For the best tango you should go to Rojo Tango at the Faena Hotel + Universe. The best boutiques by far are Tramando by Martin Churba on Rodriguez Peña, Trosman in the Paseo Alcorta mall and other locations, and Cora Groppo on Armenia and El Salvador I think... Also look at Lucilia Iotti on Malabia for shoes - Pat Field used them in the Sex and the City movie and they are really original. In addition to the MALBA you should also visit the Fortabat Museum in Puerto Madero, which is new and even better than the MALBA. Some of the best restaurants right now are Tegui and Casa Coupage. Social Paraiso is also a great more traditional restaurant, and Miranda is the best for steak. Have a wonderful trip!

Blogger ALYSSA C said ... (5:24 PM) : 

Sarkis, (Thames 1011): The best Lebanese food in town with the friendliest waiters. I loved the Vegatable Mousaka and all of the shish kebabs are very tasty. They have a menu in English and their waiters speak better broken English than others.

La Cabrera (Cabrera 5099): A great place for Argentina BBQ (asado)
with a little bit of a twist. They serve your steak with tons of mini non-traditional side dishes. It's always packed so arrive earlier in the evening, around 8pm.

Thelonius Jazz Club: The best place to grab a well-made cocktail and listen to some live jazz. I went to this place often and was never disappointed with the quality of the music. Check out their website to see who will be playing: http://www.thelonious.com.ar/

La Catedral: A place where (young) professional tango dancers go to have a drink before they go out to dance all night. The music is usually tango-electronico (like Gotan Project) and you don't have to know tango to go there. The door is a bit hidden but close to the corner of Sarmiento and Medrano.

For great shots and stylish and cool people go to Palermo Soho! Its a must!
A great bar with cool people, is Isabel.
And for an amazing dinner, go to Olsen (Scandinavian food).
Go to Faena too, from Phillipe Starck! Very nice for drinks and cool people too!
P.S Tango is very corny and for tourists! But for once, maybe its worth it to see.
Have a great trip!!

 

Anonymous YG said ... (6:31 PM) : 

you should go to Faena Hotel in Puerto Madero, there is a great atmosphere there, Philippe Starck design some stuff to their restaurant.

Eat a huge "Bife de chorizo" in recoleta or palermo soho.

Go to San Telmo, watch some tango, there are a lot of good antiques there too, Lagerfeld bought some dresses there when he shoot the Chanel last spring collection..

And you should see the collection of the designer Martin Churba, the brand's name is TRAMANDO, and Jessica Trosman, TROSMAN, you can search on google and you find the adress of the store..
They are really great designers, and do really different things from the rest.
Im an argentinian fashion design student in Milano.
Good luck Scott!

Palermo Soho is INSANE on the weekends. The Plaza Serrano Fair on Saturdays are awesome.

San Telmo is also quite the experience.

Lived in Palermo for a few months couple years back. Great place to be and very inspiring.

I miss that city!

Check out Club Eros in Palermo. It is a restaurant attached to and run by a local soccer club. Nothing fancy, just a place to get a bife de chorizo and some papas. It's a place to see some great characters and get a flavor of local life.

OMG i LOVED Buenos Aires it is the most beautiful city i've been to. And everyone dresses so fashionable. I went a couple months ago and i absolutely loved it. Like you've read you HAVE to go to Palermo Soho, there is a lot of walking over there because the stores are everywhere and you can see manby different styles and designers. Also don't forget to visit Prüne, a store that sells beautiful purses, they are the most wanted purses in the region, beautiful and authentic leather. Also, Florida St. a loooong street in the heart of Buenos Aires with many many stores. There are A LOT people walking there, really nice. La Recoleta is a place you don't wanna miss, really nice buildings and cafés, beautiful houses and there it is the cementery where Evita was buried. If you want to go to a colorful place you have to visit Caminito, it is a small street surrounded by colorful houses and people dancing tango on the streets. Speaking about food, you can't leave Bs As without trying some of their wonderful meat. I went to a Restaurant in Puerto Madero called Siga la Vaca (Follow the cow), where there's a meat buffet, really nice, the best meat ever. If you go you can also walk around Puerto Madero, is is really nice. Finally, the most known malls are Galerias Pacifico, in Florida St., Palermo Alto (the nicest one) in Palermo Soho and Abasto. I loved the subway, really efficient. I hope you enjoy it and come to Lima, Perú or to Cusco, i think you'll love the colors of the people's clothes.

Hi! I am Mexican but I have been living here for the last 5 years and I love it!!
Almost everybody is recomending you fancy spots so I will recomend you some real "Bodegones" as they call it here to the typical local restaurant, great food, cheap price.

Gijon - tinny place, great meat, local, very local crowd.
Campo di Fiori - the best hand made pastas
El palacio de la Pizza o El Cuartito - for pizzas (ask for Fugazzeta rellena, cheese and onion ... great!)

You can find the addresses in www.guiaoleo.com.ar

Have as much medias lunas con dulce de leche as you can and try the ice cream of dulce de leche (Volta) and panqueques (like crepes) of dulce de leche.

Enjoy your visit and just please be careful of your camera and yourself! specially around Florida and those very crowded places. :)

I have your book and I visit your blog and Garance's blog every day. They're great.

You shouldn't miss Puerto Madero, which is the docks area. You should also visit Palermo Soho, which is a place where you can find everything related to design. And of course, the Malba museum (the museum og latin american art. "Caminito" is the place where you'll find everything that has to do with tango.
The Teatro Colón, which has just been restored and it's a gorgeous building.

Well, if I can think of any other place, I'll tell you.

May I ask where you're going to be?
Because I'd love for you to autograph my book. Only if it's not too much of a hassle.

Obviously, you've got to visit La Boca and San Telmo, where you'll find lots of nice Tango-Cafes and even dancers on the streets.
You can also go to Palermo Soho, so pretty, with small boutiques and lovely cafes (Mark's and Oui Oui are great). There are, also, lots of fashion boutiques, both well known and non commercial ones.
I hope this info is useful. It would be so great to find you in the streets, haha.
Good luck!

I really love Buenos Aires, I have just been there last weekend. 2 of my favorites are Mishka: this brand have the best and most amazing shoes in the world (raelly pieces of art to me), and with reasonable prices, and Nucha Café, specially the new one located in Armenia Street, in Palermo Soho neighborhood. Great café and "facturas" (argentinian pastry) in a beautifully design place.

An other great restaurant is La Cabrera, located in Cabrera and Thames streets corner, also in Palermo Soho. The Bife Chorizo comes with a lot of little "guarniciones" which are so, so tasty!!

In San Telmo neighborhood there is a little vintage store called "El Buen Orden" which looks like the perfect place for Pedro Almodóvar to buy kitsch outfits and accessories for one of his movies! Such an original place!

Enjoy Buenos Aires!

As someone has already recommended, you should go to Milion, it is a beautiful restaurant and bar. Fernando, the bar man is also quite lovely! You should also go to Gil Antiguades in San Telmo square. You may be met with a little nonchalance from the owners but persevere and ask to have a look downstairs, that's where they keep all the clothes and hats. It's quite a sight xx

El Rincon is a restaurant that is stuck in a time warp, in Recoleta.
This is not a trendy or happening place, but it has been there forever. The waiters look like conquistadors and the food is perhaps the best I have had in Buenos Aires. Go for a truly authentic experience.

If you are there on a Thursday afternoon, you have to see the procession of Las Madres de la Plaza de Mayo. I saw it when I was there, and it is heartbreaking. Women (and some men) who lost children, husbands, and brothers and other family members during the dictatorship of the late 70s and early 80s walk around the square wearing white head scarfs, holding images of their lost loved ones.
While in the Plaza de Mayo, you can also catch the subway and ride on the old original wooden cars of the Subte A line. There are certainly some great photos to be taken there!

For drinks at night, I loved 878 (878 Thames). It was a clandestine address for a while and kind of still work like this with the guy at the door that use a key so you can go in!

I had amazing old school tango lesson at the armenian club in Palermo. In the basement with tons of old guys that all wanted to dance with me! Really enjoyed the tango.

Dreaming about going back already!

Oh, I love Buenos Aires! I found the best people to ask what to do/see work at hostels. Pax in San Telmo is a great source of info.
I think everyone who visits BA should go to the antique markets in San Telmo, which is usually on a weekend.
There is also a weekend market in Palermo where local designers sell there wares. There's some great stuff that can't be found anywhere else.
I was also told to be careful when going to La Boca (best place for street tango) as it gets pretty dangerous if you head too far in the wrong direction.
Hope you have a great time, BA is one of my favourite cities!

I have been to Buenos Aires many times and I recommend you wonder around the streets of Palermo. Lots of little shops and cafes and can find some really cool street style looks.Don't go anywhere near avenida Florida. Way too many tourist and Recoleta can be a bit boring although you many find some glamourous women to snap. Beware, do to the economic decline of the past few years, hold onto your camera. Don't forget to have a glass of Malbec. Its the best.

Go to Malba (Modern Latinamerican Art), Fundación Proa and Fortabat Museum. Go to La Bomba del Tiempo at Ciudad Konex on Monday evening, to concerts in Niceto Club and La Trastienda, to listen to Orquesta Tipica Fernandez Fierro (Tango) at CAFF on Wednesdays(that's in Almagro)and you should definitely go to Shampoo Club (Quintana 362, Recoleta).
Go to the bookstore La Boutique del Libro in Thames 1762 (Palermo) or to the one in Chacabuco 459, San Isidro (you should go to San Isidro, that's my hometown).
For fashion: Pablo Ramírez (amazing). Also Nadine Zlotogora, Vero Ivaldi, Mishka, Rapsodia.
Go to Sipan for Peruvian food. To Tomo 1 (best restaurant in Buenos Aires). To La Cabaña if you want good meat; you should order "ojo de bife" and eventually "matambrito de cerdo". Oh my god, it's soooo good. Have an ice cream in Freddo and one in Perssicco. And go to the little rundown bar at Adolfo Alsina (between Balcarce and Defensa) where they have the best "choripanes" in town.
Walk down Arroyo street in Recoleta; the finest art galleries are there. Walk around Palermo, too. And San Telmo. You will probably like Rond Point Cafe, in Figueroa Alcorta and Tagle. Check the pastries in the bakery Dos Escudos and in Maru Botana too.
Enjoy!!

cafe and medialunas - La Pharmacie on Charcas 3494. one of my absolute favorite things about BsAs. beautiful location, interior, and the most delicious medialunas in the city.

beautiful walk - from the Congreso subway line down Avenida Rivadavia (turns into Avenida de Mayo) to Plaza de Mayo and Casa Rosada. From here you can walk down Defensa towards San Telmo (especially on Sundays for the feria)

You can go to San Telmo and have a similar (but better) experience, albeit without the pretty colored houses but also without the smell!

P.S. Don't forget to try the pastries (they're called facturas) especially the medialunas yummmmm. On second thought, maybe I'll go have one now :)

Bolivia (name of store) is great for brilliantly color and pattern.

Hermanos Estebecorena is great for minimial design. (In the US, you can find it at some boutiques like Bird here in Brooklyn)

Among the others, Felix had a fun punky attitude and Ben Simon had an English-style wit evoking Paul Smith. Spina nad some strangely patterned handkerchiefs and scarves that I loved. Balthazar had a good take on English style.

I think all of the above are in Palermo Soho, several on Gurruchaga.

Etiqueta Negra is a chain for Argentine minimal luxury, but not so interesting. If you visit it in the upscale Patio Bullrich you can see how Argentina is a global center of both psychiatry and plastic surgery.

Argentina has its own fantasies of wealth and power that infuse fashion: One brand evokes the country/gaucho fantasy, while in the Abasto shopping center, you can find Dolfina, an Argentine vision of the polo lifestyle, directly across from a branch of Polo Ralph Lauren with todo importado.

Argentina makes great leathers but exports most....there remain great ateliers for custom shoe and boot-making.

The Argentines are criminally beautiful, so your shutter should never stop clicking!

Argentina/BA is quite something... I like to think of it like this;

Paris and New York made love and Buenos Aires was born.

Argentina restored the life in me that I thought was lost, I owe her so much. One day I'll be delighted to give her something back.

Sart, lucky U !!!, B.A. is amazing!!!,I´ve been there and think U should not miss PALACIO ERRAZURIS (Museo de Arte Decorativo),to get a glimpse of the lost "grandeur", try to visit Mato Errazuris' room decorated by Jose Maria Sert (Misia's husband), and MALBA museum (very close), the new-money-grandeur expression, COLECCION FORTABAT in Puerto Madero is a similar example, both feature great contemporary architecture an art pieces. Regarding fashion don't miss PEREZ SANZ, Posadas 1477, gorgeous fashion accesories and all sort of amazing objets d'art, and for women's fashion visit VARANASI, Juncal 1280, actual designer's fashion, exquis et überchic (they are very close to each other in Barrio Norte near the Recoleta area), beware of temptation, in my latest visit I've left almost all my money there!!!. In the evening try Olsen, Gorriti 5870, Palermo Hollywood, excellent swedish food-ambient and vodka shoots, Sunday brunch in the garden is gemütlich.
San Telmo is OK, but mostly for average tourists, if U want to see good tango try to contact some of the many Accademies, where real people go to dance real tango for self pleasure and that makes the whole thing a nice experience. In Palermo Soho try a lunch at EL PREFERIDO DE PALERMO in the corner Guatemala and Borges sts., and pay a visit to Carolina Antoniadis, a great painter as well as a beautiful fashion-icon, in Costa Rica 4684 nº 22, phone 4833 3063, the hidden studio's location is worhwhile!, and last but not least, if a full immersion in pop B.A.culture tempts U, go for a pizza (argentinean pizza is an original declination, and have it with "fainá"), go to EL CUARTITO, Talcahuano 937, and have fun...
in boca al lupo e buon soggiorno!

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (4:16 PM) : 

Palermo and Puerto Madero and some of the other areas are pretty trendified. I would suggest Belgrano for very B.A. style on the street. And the train station of Retiro is the filter of so many neighborhoods into the city. Great style on the trains!!! Boca is the old italian neighborhood that has colorful tin buildings. It would probably be a great place to shoot for the backgrounds. It is very much a tourist destination. There is a hotel that has an underground sauna/spa called the Hotel Castelar on Av. de Mayo by the Obelisco. They have the best massages there, and it used to be called Banos Turcos before it became known as a spa. Still great old world hotel feeling but very B. A. Ahhh, I miss my country. I'm in graduate school in the U.S. Can't wait to go back to see family and have some empanadas! Besos. Buen VIaje!

If you like Polo, you have to visit Casa Fagliano, they make handmade boots for polo, for most of the polo teams! http://www.fagliano.com.ar/
You can contact them to ask about the polo tournaments. Enjoy!

 

Anonymous Juaniria said ... (5:14 PM) : 

enjoy buenos aires, and if you can, come to La Plata, it has a magnificent museaum. In BA. go of course to San Telmo, La Boca, Caminito, yes, Palermo -which seems to be NY in the 90ties- and if you have time, go to El Tigre.
The city is great. what it lacks in beauty supplies it on personality and ego.

First...Tango IS NOT POPULAR AND GAUCHOS ARE BASICALLY EXTINT, some people make a business out of tango and it's all at San Telmo for tourists...having said this, you will have a great time shopping at the flea market in Dorrego, Palermo Soho and beautiful (but ridiculously expensive local brands like Rapsodhia)...At night you should visit Faena Hotel or have a coctail at Tequila in Costanera...

La Cabrera and Miranda are two of my favorite restaurants (both in Palermo). Bar Federal was one of my favorite "cafe/bars" - it's one of the oldest and most authentic in the city (and I used to live across the street!).

Also, you must go to the cemetery in Recoleta and walk around. It's very cool.

Can't wait to see the photos!

Scott, we will be waiting for you! Wellcome to Buenos Aires!! All the best places around the city have already been mentioned, but you must visit San Telmo on sunday (if u are still here), Recoleta (Quintana Avenue, Alvear Avenue), Palermo Soho, Palermo Chico (very Paris like my friend), Puerto Madero.. and please, try pizza in any of the famous Corrientes Avenue pizzerias, you'll love it, and of course, try our "asado".. enjoy! and hope to see you taking pictures!

For classic, old-fashioned, unspoiled tango, don't miss Confiteria Ideal. Incredible shabby fabulous room, working-class dancers from all walks of life who take tango very seriously. Great scratchy music from the 30s and 40s. You'll see that what Americans think of as tango, with all the sharp movements and Rudolph Valentino posturing, is nothing like the controlled, intense dance that takes place at this Belle Epoque milonga.

For vintage handbags, Bakelite, silver, lingerie, and a gorgeous display of old polychrome tins, don't miss the San Telmo flea market.

Eat skirt steak at Cabana Las Lilas.

Cocktails at Palacio Duhau, outside on the patio.

Hang onto your wallet and don't wear a good watch.

I happen to be a private tour guide here in BA, please contact me I know I will be able to help you and could get you in touch with Polo people, etc., etc.

One of the things people always admire is the light BA has, you'll love it.

Good luck!

Tango that actual people dance and not shows for tourists (Tango is not dead!!!): Maldita Milonga on Wednesday night is my favourite:

http://www.welcomesantelmo.com/san-telmo-guide/y7w92frv0x/Maldita-Milonga
,
they have a band who are The Rolling Stones of tango and play with passion and talent in hi-tops. Also La Cathedral a bohemian Tango warehouse space with a cat that weaves through the dancers.

I'm from Buenos Aires! Looove your pictures. You must walk down Florida Street for pictures, crowded at all times, fashion is a must. However be careful.
Also, Plaza Serrano if you're here on the weekend, totally worth it.

Let me know if you need an English Speaking guide!

And I hope I'll meet you at Fashion BsAs!

Calle Florida for Tango and cafe Havana for a tasty cortadito and alfajor! And if you have time check out La Boca- it's gotten pretty dangerous but if you're feeling adventurous the color and the culture is wonderful in that part of town! Hope you have a fabulous time!

Hi Scott!!

-As everyone else already mentioned --> PALERMO SOHO is a MUST...the people here have the best sense of fashion and you will find some of the best boutiques and cute delicious restaurants in the entire city .....i have had the best memories in this neighborhood

-If you have time make a reservation for dinner at CLUNY in palermo soho (you will not regret this.)

-Milion is also great for a drink, a restaurant/bar in an old mansion

-The streets are booming with cafes and you'll definitely need to engage in this ritual

-Cultural element that you cannot miss: MATE!!!!!!! And buy a mate cup as a souvenir- they come in all sorts of colors, textures

-Make sure you visit Recoleta cemetery, get a look at the Plazo de Mayo (the pink house), try and visit the Malba if you can

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THESE PICTURES- paris schmaris, milan schmilan-- BUENOS AIRES FASHION IS WHERE IT IS AT.

You definitely should visit Palermo Soho, and Florida. You'll find interesting stuff there.

 

Anonymous Mercedes said ... (4:14 AM) : 

I can't believe no one has mentioned the Botanic Garden. It's a beautiful garden in its own right, but the main feature is the large colony of feral (but very friendly) cats that live there. Lots of people go there just to feed or play with the kitties, so it's a great mix of well-heeled people going for a stroll and animal lovers playing with the urban fauna. It's a peaceful place, and I think it's a BsAs experience that shouldn't be missed! Enjoy your time in Argentina.

 

Blogger Claire said ... (6:13 AM) : 

Have a walk in the San Telmo streets, see all the happy design shops and clothes shops, the creativity vibes here really differently, you have to discover that. And after that, have a moment in Palermo Soho, you really fell here the city atmosphere, and the modern argentinian spirit. Don't forget the food !! You will never see meat the same way after... And don't forget to chat with as much people as you can, argentinos and porteños are the sweetest.
Hope you will enjoy this place as much as I did when I lived there, before my come back to France. Have a good trip. Claire

If you have time, also visit some place outside downtown,countryside tourism is great, there are "estancias" where you can eat delicious meat and homemade meals. There's no much fashion there, but a lot of argentinian culture, local music besides from tango and regional clothes.
Anything you need, please ask me.
Welcome to Argentina!!

My recommendations being a foreign in this beautiful city is:
Orquesta tipica fernandez fierro http://www.fernandezfierro.com/home.php
For a very postmodern uncommon tango orchestra, and also is a must to go to "la bomba del tiempo"

There are so many amazing things to do in bs as, but those two you can't miss!
