Restaurants and Nightclubs in Buenos Aires

Advantages: The best meat in the world!
Disadvantages: You may need a laxative after all that red meat!

Restaurants in Buenos Aires. If you go to Argentina, you know that the word vegetarian is unknown in there. so lets face it, you must try meat, so taste, so mmmmm... so here are a few tips, if you are near Recoleta visiting Evita's (Eva Peron) grave you can walk along Junin Street where you can find a finest option of food, so instead of choosing the sports cafe, or the Henry j. beans ( yes! Argentina got them too!) You can give it a try in Cabaña Las Lilas restaurant. It is posh and not for a low budget (17 pounds per persons not wine incl.)However, you have to treat yourself in a place like this! The specialty is tenderloin that in spanish is lomo, but don't worry, the menu is in english too. But what happen if you are visiting the docks? Ah! Here you can can invite yourself to Hereford and try their taste ribs (asado) or if ...

Review of Buenos Aires

Comfort in Buenos Aires

Advantages: Friendly staff, clean rooms
Disadvantages: Small lift, awful scrambled eggs

The Kempinski Hotel is ideally located in the centre of Buenos Aires. You are within walking distance of numerous cafes, restaurants, shops, the metro, bus stops and many of the main attractions. It is a small boutique hotel with friendly, competent staff who are happy to help you out. We stayed in the hotel for 6 nights and were very happy with the place.

The rooms are spacious and comfortable - you get a sofa and an en-suite as well as a huge double bed. The room is air conditioned - a must in summer as it is so hot outside. There is cable TV with lots of random English speaking channels - so you can watch movies in English ...

Review of Park Central Kempinski Hotel, Buenos Aires

Aires And Graces

Advantages: Classy, cultural and (at the moment) cheap.
Disadvantages: The current economic situation continues to plague the nations spirit.

3.5 times stronger. This situation has devastated many of BA's middle class as foreign banks like HBSC, Citibank and Boston Bank refuse to give customers access to their savings. As a result the financial heart of BA's is awash with battered metal shutters and a constant barrage of vitriol from its once affluent customers. This has heralded uneasy times for the city with noisy protests an almost daily occurrence. So while backpackers get to see what BA has to offer you feel she is not her true self. A large proportion of Portenos (port city dwellers) have being drained of their zest for life and the recovery will doubtlessly take years. Buenos Aires is by far the biggest city in Argentina with 13 million people (Cordoba the countries second city has only 1 million). It's sprawling city centre, known as the Microcentro, is defined ...
