I told you about my experience at the medium-end steak restaurants. Next I tried the lower-end “locals” establishments. How low you can go and still get a good steak in Buenos Aires? Cervantes II Chance from BA LOCAL introduced me to this place. We were starving and wanted something fast, cheap, and filling. Cervantes is one […]
Steak Extravaganza: Restaurant Review – El Obrero vs El Trapiche vs Manolo’s
One thing that is really great about Buenos Aires, is that you can get excellent steak for a cheap price. Everything else may be expensive, but a steak dinner is going to cost you much less than in the US. Since I am traveling on a budget, I do not eat out at restaurants very […]
Foto of the Week from …. Buenos Aires
I took this photo in Plaza de Mayo. This is a busy area with lots of symbols of Buenos Aires. I looked for a unique angle to capture some of the symbols. The focus is on the white shawl painted on the ground, which symbolizes the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo. These white shawls are […]
My Biggest Fear: Dental Work in the Third World
I am not one to publicize the things that scare me about traveling alone in Latin America, mainly because I don’t want to give my parents more things to worry about or discourage others from doing what I am doing. Since I got the whole getting robbed thing out of the way the first day […]
Buena Birra in Buenos Aires
I have complained about the lack of good handcrafted beers in Latin America. I thought I would find a better selection when I got to Buenos Aires, but I was disappointed by my initial attempts to find good beer here. When I went home to Columbus, Ohio for a visit, I made it a point […]
Foto of the Week from …. Buenos Aires
This is a simple photo, but for some reason, I was really drawn to this building. I was in Chacarita on a rooftop terrace enjoying a birthday party. Chacarita is a quiet, residential neighborhood. This building across the street stood out because it was the only tall building around. The white exterior contrasted nicely with […]
The Impressive Teatro Colon Opera House in Buenos Aires
When I visited Argentina for the first time in 2009 on a 2-week vacation, one of the major attractions in Buenos Aires was closed for renovations. After 7 years of detailed restoration, Teatro Colon is now open to the public. The tour is one of the top things to do in Buenos Aires. The price […]
Buenos Aires Odd Jobs: Old Lady Walkers
Today I am turning over my blog to Rease of Travelated fame. Rease is an expat living in Buenos Aires, a fellow travel writer, and my cheap wine drinking buddy. This is actually the first guest post I’ve ever had on The Travel Chica, and I’m thrilled to feature one of my favorite bloggers that […]
Check me out!
Since I have called Argentina my home for approximately 6 months (and counting) of my travel sabbatical, I am excited to be featured on About.com Argentina. I have really enjoyed sharing my travel experiences and photography on The Travel Chica. Over the past couple months, I have also had the pleasure of writing for a […]
Halloween Photo Fun with Foto-Ruta
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. You get to dress up in scary, slutty (not me, of course), funny, and/ or inappropriate costumes. You get to eat candy. You get to stay up partying until 6am. Oh, wait… The 6am thing is just a normal Saturday night in Buenos Aires. I also really enjoy […]
