I really love the white vermouth with soda here. Their food is delicious, portions are not big but not tiny either. Their Buñuelos de acelga, Milanesa con fritas and Fainizzeta are all excellent examples of typical argentinean food with a twist.

This is Buenos Aires' equivalent to NY's Central Park. A big park with lots of things to see and places to walk. There is a museum, a planetarium, a rose garden with roses from all over the world, and many trails to walk and enjoy some nature in the city.
