Great place to shop. But don't be in a hurry because the lines can get really long at the checkout…read more Great place to find a wonderful selection of wine. There is also a Western Union location in the store.

Well stocked market at reasonable prices. I stock up on munchies mostly, but what I really come…read morehere for is the Patagonia Dulce de Rosa Mosqueta (Rose-hips Jelly). My God. I don't know what it is, but I do know it is sweet gooey goodness. The taste is sort of like rose-honey with some not-too-sweet berries thrown in. Anyway, I've not seen it in the US so I bring jars back with me. I'm like that. What are rose-hips anyway???

Stopped in here on my walk between Recoleta and Palermo. Lots of delicious dairy alternatives and…read moreit's quiet and pleasant inside. Friendly people working here. A little bit of California a lot bit of BA.

Chicama is not only a grocery store…read more It is a first rate bakery and cafe. It has nice seats overlooking Plaza Zapiola. It is a fine place to spend an hour or three. You are not here to get legendary or unique anything. The menu is standard. The execution is fine. We did one of their gigantic two people vegan brunches. We had a zillion things and loved them all. I send out special applause for their orange juice with basil, for their chocolate banana budim (a frosting-less cake similar to a date bread) And their insane potatoes with vegan cheddar and guacamole. Not all everyday restaurants in Buenos Aires have lots of vegan options. Chicama is good that way. Both this writer and his vegetable loving dairy hating wife were happy. Very happy indeed.

Nice to see a French chain in Argentina. We stopped by here to pick up some sundries. The…read morestorefront seemed pretty beat up and past its prime.

I love it when great things open up in my neighborhood…read more Ciudad de la Paz is really heating up these days and La Parra Club is further proof of that. I'd passed it a few times before I really had a reason to enter: artesanal beer night! I just want to point out that beer was all I wanted, but I also left with a big bottle of olive oil and plans to order sandwiches the next day. Oh and a lovely glass of malbec that came with some conversation. La Parra specializes in sourcing from small boutique wineries and has a surprisingly affordable array of wines available. As the owner, Juan Bautista, said: "at least 80% of the wines you can't find in the supermarket." Damn right. They also have Argentine products, everything from high-quality dried pasta, to some of the best olive oil i've ever had (they have a special relationship with an olive oil company that only exports). I also had Gante's artesanal i.p.a., which was really delicious! We'll be back for it. La Parra also does wine tasting on Fridays for $150 pesos, including a picada. For anyone working in the area, they have a sandwich promo from 12-3pm that includes a cheese and meat sammie with a soda for $40. Cheers to one more great spot in the neighborhood!

The shop is small but has great selection of wines and small selection of beer and spirits. Got home immediately and opened one of his recommendations which was great. Can't wait to try the others.

This is like a deli store, very typical for Argentina. They sell salamis, hams, cheeses, honey, dulce de leche, milk, and a variety of snacks for the best chattery board.
