Eat your heart out, Buenos Aires

Food lovers rejoice; Buenos Aires is truly a gastronomic experience. Porteños enjoy a varied cuisine and there are enough restaurants, cafes and bars to satisfy every taste and pocket.

Sampling new foods is one of the best parts of travelling and eating local specialties will give you insights to the local culture that you can’t read about in guidebooks. For an altogether different experience, why not skip the touristy, over-priced restaurants and dine with a local family?

Another service that Pamela offers is Cena en casa de familia (dinner with a local family). As well as the opportunity to practise your Spanish, you will be treated to what will most likely be the most delicious, mouth-watering feast you will encounter in Argentina. There really is nothing quite like a home-cooked meal and Elda, a loveable Argentine mama, is a genius in the kitchen! Contact Pamela for meal options and pricing.












Argentines take their food seriously, and dining options are endless. They enjoy a varied ethnic cuisine largely influenced by their Spanish and Italian ancestors but you will also find French, German, English, and other South American influences in the culinary habits of Argentines.

When planning your Buenos Aires Itinerary with Pamela you will receive the best local advice on restaurants, cafe and bars, help making restaurant bookings and some crucial food vocab (you didn't really want to order kidneys and liver did you?!).  Porteños eat late and party till dawn so don't even think about going out to eat before 10PM.

Argentina is renowned for its beef and the famous parilla restaurants are everywhere, but if you are after a more traditional experience pick Pamela's brain for the best nearby estancia for a day in the country, and tuck into a tasty asado! Contact Pamela for Estancia bookings and pricing.

A typical city tour with Pamela will include a stop at the famous Cafe Tortoni and finish up at the iconic El Cuartito - the oldest pizzeria in Buenos Aires. If weather allows you may even take a break in one of the city’s parks or plazas to drink mate, as Porteños love nothing more than to share a mate with a friend.

Contact Pamela to book your Buenos Aires Itinerary, Cena en casa de familia, City Tour or Estancia and set off on your Argentine culinary adventure! Oh, and remember, leave some space in your luggage…there's no way you will leave Argentina without a few extra, well-deserved kilos!
