Description: Sprawling and strange, magical and melancholy, continually veering between triumph and disaster, Buenos Aires is an irresistible destination. Written entirely by residents, Time Out Buenos Aires casts a cool, critical eye on the places, people, and culture that have made this metropolis great and the contemporary trends that are conspiring to make it greater still. Bypassing the "Paris of South America" clichés, this guide cuts through the confusing jumble of influences that is Buenos Aires’ trademark. The book sharply profiles century-old cafés and world-famous steak houses; word-of-mouth bars and back-street bistros; late-night tango salons and all-night clubs; prestigious cultural landmarks and improvised warehouse galleries. Candid, current, detailed, and informative, Time Out Buenos Aires is the perfect companion for visitors both new and seasoned.

Description: Modest prices, generous servings, friendly owners, and a devoted local clientele all define these cafés, bars, restaurants, and pizzerias where you can taste the traditional everyday cuisine of Argentina in authentic settings. New or old, each one of the seventy profiled here has details that make them worth visiting. Many were the settings for clandestine political meetings in the days before the May Revolution; others provided inspiration for the artists and writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, who frequented them. At one bar, the most prestigious young tango musicians of Buenos Aires gather nightly, and, after a few drinks and a few empanadas (made by the owner himself), spontaneously perform. There’s a tiny parrilla–steak house–known not only for the best roasted meat at the best price but for its eternally festive atmosphere and chaotic charm. At another intimate pulperia, simple homemade meals are served communally at a wooden marble-top table. The Authentic Bars and Cafés of Buenos Aires also includes Gabriela Kogan’s recommendations of what to eat at each venue, a map, and a glossary of Argentine food.
