Massively wonderful healthy eating in Palermo…read more This is fun food - not haute cuisine. And there is healthy animal based food available for those that want it. Buenos Aires Verde is a lot better than the good-for-you cafes I have in my home city. Among the decadent pleasures they have masquerading as health food - A passionfruit chia smoothie. When you are in Latin America, if you see passionfruit (maracuya or maracuja) on the menu, Just get whatever it is that they are selling. Maracuya is wonderfully good. Maracuya makes your whole day better. Maracuya makes the sun shine when it rains And your relationships renew if you are arguing. Maracuya solves all problems - at least for half an hour. Chocolate can't even remotely compete with maracuya. The maracuya chia smoothie I had was the perfect start for the perfect day. It was also one of the few ways you can get chia into Samuel C without Samuel C giving you a speech about about what a bad idea chia is. My wife had a tofu and egg scramble. Yeah, eggs like the kind that come from chickens. Maybe a plant laid the eggs, but I don't think so. It looked like one of the best scrambled egg dishes ever. If i wasn't in total bliss about my maracuya smoothie, I would have wanted those eggs for myself absolutely. Argentines like heavy sweet pastries with their breakfast. I had a chocolate covered raspberry chocolate cake. This was a health food restaurant So this meant that chocolate covered raspberry chocolate cake was good for me. My life was extended seven years because of that raspberry cake. The coffee is fine too. (Good coffee is not an automatic in Buenos Aires. There are a lot of famous establishments with absolutely terrible coffee.) * * * After Buenos Aires Verde, my wife and I were able to go out and conquer the world. Starting your day with really good chocolate cake will do that for you.

We stumbled across this place walking around Palermo after a late afternoon lunch at Casa Munay. We…read morewere intrigued even though we had already rated so we decided to have dessert. Dessert was okay - raw chocolate cake. While we were waiting for our cake we decided to grab a bag of cashews to take to go - only my girlfriend noticed bugs in them so I kindly let the hostess know. She seemed grateful and proceeded to inspect all of the remaining bags and removed over half of the remaining cashew bags. However, when we were ready to leave she was extremely rude to us. We wanted to pay and no one was attending to us - she ran my card wrong several times and was also talking to someone else wanting to order. She was short when I handed her the same card back and I had to almost force her to run it again. It is too bad because we had fully planned on returning Saturday night but never again after our experience. Food looks good - nice veggie menu - but bugs, no thanks....

It almost felt like an old house transformed into a restaurant. The service was nice, I had the thai noodles and my husband had a mushroom steak version. The food was decent, my thai version was a bit on the sweeter side but his milanesa dish was really good. I'd recommend this restaurant if you're in the area.

Hey, Argentina. It's okay. Everything doesn't have to be greasy. Sometimes I want to eat out and…read morenot feel like I need to lay down in the street afterward. My poor traveler intestines need a break. My (misguided) thought was that going to a vegetarian place I'd finally meet like-minded digestive systems, but then I got a plate of bread floating in hummus soup. I think there were mushrooms in there, I couldn't tell, it just seemed like blocks of high-density grease surrounded by lighter-weight grease. And to frame the whole picture were enormous blocks of fried potatoes that were roughly 95% cooked. Biting into a lukewarm raw potato core is one of those experiences. Just one of those experiences.

Turned out a couple of Food tours were arriving soon. Lucky we were ordering takeaway. Smaller spot with just about an equal amount of in/outdoor seating. We ordered a couple of the Guest Chori's-The Juan Pedro Caballero (pork) and the Carneceria (beef). Juan Pedro had tortilla chips and peppers and the pork chorizo sausage was saltier than the beef. We ordered a Chimichurri sauce on the side and enjoyed it. We liked the Pork more than the Beef-just was more flavorful. The Bread was thick, soft and held up to the Choripan and condiments well. Potato salad with al dente potatoes was tasty. They also have beer and cocktails so ordered a Gin and Tonic while we waited for our order. Friendly people behind the counter. Food was ready in about 15 minutes. That said, I can see they could get busy and have longer wait times. Make this stop for local grilled sausage deliciousness.

They served mostly chori and one morci (blood) sausage sandwiches but with a twist with their toppings. You could get just the sandwich or combine with side and drink. I picked the Invitado Juan Pedro Caballero and the cashier hesitated before entering the order as she wanted me to know it was picante. I assured her it was not a problem and then paid with my credit card. After a short wait, they called my name and I picked up my choripan. it was quite the handful filled with layers of roasted peppers, tortilla chips, onions and lettuce. The tortilla chips were stale but overall I liked the flavors especially with the heat from the peppers and chipotle mayo. It was a nice twist on the popular choripan.

I'm always thrilled to find a Vegan or Vegetarian restaurant, where I know I can enjoy my meal…read morewithout worrying. The restaurant itself is in a nice location, had a lovely and bright exterior, and was easy to find. When I walked in, the server came and seated me right away. Although the menu is on the back wall, it can also be pulled up on your phone by scanning the QR code on each table. Everything is Vegetarian and the Vegan items are marked on the menu. I ordered the braised tofu, which came on a bed of rice and steamed vegetables. The tofu was seasoned really well, the rice and vegetables were low sodium so I added some salt and pepper for more flavor. It was a nice treat to be offered a free appetizer of pumpkin soup and three types of toast, all vegan. It tasted great! I think my favorite was the lentil spread toast. The atmosphere is inviting, and it's a great place for a meal or just getting coffee. My meal plus a bottle of sparkling water came out to roughly $15 usd or 21,000 pesos. It was reasonably priced and a nice option for plant based diners.

Menu is expansive and nicely organized, with vegan and gluten-free options highlighted. There are so many healthy smoothies to choose from, and looking around, seems like a popular spot for dessert as well. Free bread and hummus is given, as well as a shot of fresh berry lemonade. Yum! I ordered the black pepper tofu which came with a side of tabouli, russet fries and seasonal veggies. The plate was beautifully presented, so many colors! The food was super light with a great mix of flavors and different textures. I also ordered a smoothie made with almond milk, Colombian coffee, banana and lemon. It tasted more like lemon and banana, I wish there was more coffee flavor, but I still happily slurped it down. Service was friendly and the atmosphere is lovely and quaint. Of course, it's not cheap, but it's not expected to be. Totally worth it, if you ask me. Definitely recommended if you're veg, or even a meat eater looking to try something different! I'll be trying their Palermo location soon.

The ambiance is very chill, colorful and quaint. Service wasn't too bad, although we were the only people there. I ordered the thali plate which came with ginger rice, sauteed mixed veggies, a beet salad, 2 fritters and some bread. I wasn't a fan of the beet salad, and the veggies smelled a bit spoiled. Everything else I happily munched down. Prices are decent considering anything exotic here has a high markup. I spent $400 ($20 USD as of Feb 2018) which included some tasty ginger lemonade. Altogether, a fine experience. I would return if in the mood for Indian food.
