My friend purchased some fresh figs from a stand - she said that they were good. After perusing a few more stores checking out some of the antiques, clothing and artwork we found thw place to just be uncomfortably hot. It was very busy early on Sunday afternoon so the crowd was substantial and with no air-conditioning, it was very warm. So we left soon thereafter. Perhaps if we were in the city longer, it would be worth returning amd spending a little more time looking around or getting small bites or drinks.

Topping the list of things I wanted to experience in Buenos Aires was San Telmo Market (aka Mercado…read morede San Telmo), a national historic monument and market hall that's been around since 1897. Because I also wanted to experience the Sunday street fair (Feira de San Telmo) outside its doors I came, initially, on a Sunday. Big mistake. By all means, enjoy the street fair on a Sunday but by no means try to enjoy San Telmo Market that same day. By late afternoon, when I tried to enter the market hall (consisting almost entirely of food and drink purveyors), the place was so packed that one could barely move. The sole place I found with any space was an unoccupied stool in a wine bar so I plopped down and drank wine for the next 90 minutes, not an entirely bad idea. Getting food - let alone navigating myself around the place - seemed a task beyond my abilities. I left San Telmo Market vowing to return on a day when I could walk its aisles, see all of the places to eat and drink, and sit down to enjoy a meal. I did all of this on a weekday afternoon with success. The hall is filled with places to eat and drink (and really, not a lot more than that) and checking all of them out was fun. You could find similar food elsewhere in Buenos Aires but then you'd not be sitting inside a historic market hall. Make time for San Telmo Market but if you go on a Sunday, don't say you weren't warned.

Our table unanimously ordered the chicken curry and everyone in the group was pleased with the flavors and presentation. This is not the best chicken curry I've had, it lacked a little in the spices category but otherwise I was pleased with the dish. I could confidently recommend this place to anyone looking for an easy lunch spot with an excellent reputation and rating!
