Stumbled across this place. Apparently opened up late in 2016, it's a tiny little space, with two…read moretables for two, and a few bar stools, mostly being a takeout joint. A short and simple menu - tacos and burritos (chicken or beef), quesadillas (plain or with the fixings), posole, and chilaquiles (also chicken or beef). Run by a couple of women from Morelia, bringing their version of Mexican street food to the streets of BA. Ordered up a couple of chicken and a couple beef tacos (32 pesos each, or 3 for 90). I'd say that these are probably the most authentic street food style tacos I've yet to have in BA. I could happily eat a half a dozen of those for lunch, any day. The hot sauce on the table was pretty mild, more tomato than anything else, and I asked if there was a real hot sauce around, and they brought me a little dish of chile de árbol sauce (rehydrated chiles de árbol blended with a little tomato) that was fiery and perfect. I don't think they expected me to use the whole dish.... They also sell a bunch of Mexican packaged products, including those chilies, that they bring down from Mexico themselves. Decided to give the plain quesadilla a try (30 pesos). Salted mozzarella in a tortilla. I mean, it's fine, and I schmeared it with the last bits of the hot sauce. But I think I'd rather order the "with the works" version, albeit it comes with four quesadillas and is really designed to split, though I suppose you could make a solo lunch out of it. Besides, those tacos.... I was going to call it a lunch when I noticed that they had Mexican hot chocolate on the menu (no desserts available). After asking and finding that yes, it's made using the real Mexican bar chocolate with the almonds and cinnamon and vanilla, I went for a cup. Perfect ending! I will definitely be making this a regular spot to stop in for lunch when over in the area. A couple of days later a friend in San Telmo wanted to grab lunch and I thought, what the heck, let's go back and try more of the menu. He went for the tacos, I decided to try, first, the burritos - two beef ones (also, again, available in chicken). Back with chopped, well browned and seasoned beef, flavorful rice and beans, cheese, guacamole, and more. Like the tacos, these are easily the best burritos I've had in BA. I think they were 90 pesos for two. And, what the heck, try the volcán, a crispy taco (minor disappointment that it wasn't the corn tortilla that was promised, but a flour one, like the others), laden with shredded chicken, onions, guacamole, and salsa. A little pricier than the tacos, coming in at 45 pesos, but it's also twice the filling, at least. All in all, we have a winner for some decent Mexican fare here in town. It's not fancy, it's street food, but it's done right!

They serve a pan-Latin American cuisine, covering everything from Mexico to Peru. Their plates are huge, more than enough food for one person. We had the bandeja and moqueca. The bandeja was loaded with tender, well seasoned beef. The moqueca was also tasty, especially the coconut milk "curry" seafood stew. Prices are slightly pricey, mid-200 pesos per plate. But definitely well worth it. Service was excellent, with friendly staff. Seating is cozy, with limited tables.

I went with a group of four and everyone said their dishes were tasty. We especially loved the bean dip and chips at the beginning. Yum. The waitress was nice enough to change a few dishes for us, but she forgot to check on us (which is weird since the place is quite tiny) so it took awhile to be served. But I definitely recommend this place if you're craving tacos!

Al Pastor filling is cooked on a vertical spit, just like Mexico City. The corn tortillas are not too greasy.

They have a good beer selection and they take credit cards. El idioma español es difícil para mí. El personal es paciente con mi acento.

We came by on one evening and it was pretty empty but we did come around 4:30-5 pm. The person taking our order didn't speak English well so she was able to accommodate for the language barrier and have one of her coworkers assist us. The most popular burgers here were the fried onion and the Manhattan. I tried the fried onion and wow it was stuffed with so many onions that it hit the spot. The burger itself was very tender and cooked to perfection. Fries were also animal style fries (for a little extra fee) and came with sauce bacon and cheese like In n Out. Overall a solid burger joint in BA that was close to our hotel. Highly recommend!

Argentina makes some of the greatest steaks on the planet…read more And yet, there are times when nothing is better than an Argentine hot dog. I am not talking about the stupid everyday hot dogs which are called panchos. These are just like hot dogs in America. They depend on what kind of goop you put on top. I am talking about Choripan. If you think about how you eat an Argentine steak (with wine, gusto and reverent appreciation) And how you eat Argentine ice cream (squeals of oooooooh!) Choripan is right in the middle. Half Church of Great Amazingness and Half Little Kid Fun. * * * We don't have Choripan in the US. Choripan is derived from the Spanish-Catalonian hot dog tradition rather than the German frankfurters we eat in America. In a Catalonian hot dog house, you have a choice of 8 or 10 or a dozen different kinds of hot dogs ... Meaning 8 or 10 or a dozen different kinds of meat or flavoring right in the sausage itself. One sausage might be made with extra liver. One sausage might be made with lots of ground up mushroom. Usually there is a spicy one with Mexican chiles. Nowadays there is a vegetarian one. The sausages all taste dramatically different from each other. Choripans are larger than a traditional frankfurter but smaller than a knockwurst - more like a fatter version of a footlong. They are served on a small submarine roll. In Spain, you get a free choice of toppings. Most Spanish will only put one or at the most two toppings on their dog, Because they do not want to drown out the taste of the meat. Our hot dogs are boring. We put distraction after distraction after distraction on top to make us forget how lousy the base dog is. * * * Chori is widely considered to serve the best choripan in Buenos Aires. Choripan is all they do. There are ten choices of sausage. They are more rigid than the Spanish on toppings. They have figured out what topping goes best on each sausage - and when you order your hot dog, you get the chef's choice of fixings for each one. Believe the house. They know what they are doing. How are their dogs served the way they want to serve them? ABSOLUTAMENTE MAGNIFICOS !!!!!!!!!!!! * * * Special Bonus Section! Not only does Chori make its own hot dogs ... But it also makes its own ketchup. Once you have had Chori's ketchup, You will never be happy with the Heinz-style American ketchup we eat at home. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Argentines have better tomatoes than we do. But that is not the driving factor. They have put something dark and baritone and powerful into their ketchup. My guess is that they use balsamic vinegar rather than white vinegar as the base. However, I also think they have seriously reconsidered the spice mix and the use of sugar in the ketchup. Whatever, their secret is, you absolutely positively must get french fries with your choripan. And yeah, the fries themselves are nothing special. (I have only had really good french fries in one place in Buenos Aires, El Federal in San Telmo.) But Chori's ketchup on even average fries turns the fries into a dish to remember forever. Long after my hot dog was gone, I was eating each french fry one at a time as slowly as I could. The fries had already gotten cold but I didn't care. The ketchup was that good. * * * I don't think they put nuts in the sausages at Chori. But YOU would be nuts not to go to Chori while you are in Buenos Aires. Hey, there are more ways to have fun than just doing the tango!
