We had a wonderful time spending the day with Frank Almeida owner of Asado Adventure. From the…read moremoment we stepped into the home we felt welcomed. Even Tomate the cat and Palta, the dog were eager to welcome us. We made chimichuri and caramelized pecans and then set off on a neighborhood art tour. The timing worked out perfectly with the street art. Frank pointed out that "briefly crossing paths with Victoria Ferreyra as she was finishing her mural felt like one of those quiet Palermo moments you cannot plan". We were there to add to the local compost and view her murals and the nearby veggie garden and she happened to be there working on her next project. Palta seemed to be her biggest fan, enticing her to climb down the scaffolding. Speaking of Palta, walking the neighborhood with her added its own charm, and it was wonderful to spend the day with her. Returning to Frank's home for the full Asado was wonderful and it felt like the perfect family day. My husband and I loved the grilling provolone so much we decided to take home a provoletera. Frank, being the incredible host he was, has already sent us links to where we can get this special cheese in the United States. This whole experience was the best food we have had in Argentina so far and this experience will be very hard to beat. There is too much to write in this review, but as part of the art and neighborhood tour, we learned an incredible amount about Argentina's history. I really feel like Frank helped us get to know the culture and heart of this very welcoming and friendly city and specifically the Palermo neighborhood.

My gal frens and I ate like QUEENS at Feria Masticar. The best tip for this type of food festival…read moreis to go in groups... that way, you can split every dish so you get the full experience and you don't get too full! We started with macchiatos from Café Puerto Blest and it was honestly the best coffee I've ever had in my life. Then, we had the potato waffles from Los Peterson and they blew us away! Such an amazing combo of ingredients. Mishguene's pastrón was juicy and fatty (in the best way possible), and La Mar's ceviche was SO salty and fresh and SUPER spicy. Peugeot Lounge's creme brulée was very unique- the custard was berry flavored and it was topped with a crunchy, thin layer of sugar and a dense chocolatey mousse. Incredible. Last but not least we had a rich chocolate flan with passionfruit mousse (unbelievable concoction of p-fruit and cream) topped with crunchy blueberry crumble, a crystallized orange slice and flower petals. Was it over the top? Yes. Did it tickle my tastebuds? Totally. Feria Masticar was 100% over the top but 100% worth it. As everyone says, go the first day, because it's uncomfortably crowded over the weekend. Be ready to spend a lot, because you will want to try everything; the chefs behind this are all brilliant (I wish I could hug each and every one of them).

Online it says $10 per person but it is a FREE walk. It is then up to you to tip and you should tip well because like I said our guide was knowledge and very nice. We learned about the colorful houses "conventillos" a little history of tango the old industrial port and the history of immigration (so interesting) and ended at Boca Jr. stadium. My family is from Argentina (Italy) and for that reason and many others I recommend this walk. I learned a lot of interesting facts. Hicimos el paseo de La Boca. Nuestra guía fue Mariana y ella fue súper amable y conocedora. La caminata duró alrededor de una hora y cuarenta y cinco minutos. En línea dice $10 por persona, pero es una caminata GRATUITA. Depende de usted dar propina y debe dar una buena propina porque, como dije, nuestra guía era conocedora y muy agradable. Aprendimos sobre las casas de colores "conventillos" un poco de historia del tango, el antiguo puerto industrial y la historia de la inmigración (tan interesante) y terminó en el estadio de Boca Jr. Mi familia es de Argentina (Italia) y por eso y muchos otros recomiendo este paseo. Aprendí muchos datos interesantes.

We opted to stay in Recoleta (last stop) and have lunch at the recommended La Biela Cafe. (Oldest in Buenos Aires.) Tour took about 3 hours and we visited some of the main spots including Plaza de Mayo, Avenida de Mayo, San Telmo, La Boca with Caminito Street, and we finished in the Barrio de Recoleta -about a 3 minute walk from the Cemetery. Air conditioned smaller tour bus was clean and comfortable. Lionel took great care of us and this is a good one for those who want a small group tour with a mix of guided and self guided and not so much walking.

Day trip to Colonia del Sacramento from Buenos Aires:…read more While you can definitely piece this trip together yourself and save some money (transfers to/from the ferry, ferry tickets, tour of Colonia), I found it to be 100% worth the premium not to have to everything pre-arranged. The trip ran very smoothly - someone contacted me on whatsapp the day before with my itinerary and ferry tickets, I was picked up from my hotel right on time and escorted into the ferry terminal in BA, then met with a tour guide in Colonia, followed by a ~2 hour walking tour and 4 hours of free time for lunch and exploration, then escorted back to to the ferry by my tour guide and picked up on the BA side by the same driver who had dropped me off in the morning. There were a lot of logistics involved and I didn't have to think about a thing. The tour was great - I learned a lot about both Uruguay and Colonia - and because I was the only one on the tour (I'm told the winter is slow season) I got a private tour and the guide took many pictures of me at all the sites. Very professionally run and well organized all around!
