Monocle 25/25 Buenos Aires Argentina

Monocle 25/25
Buenos Aires
Argentina
There are two Buenos Aires:
one is the traditional, with
the tango nights and
classical concerts at The
Teatro Colón. Another is the
home to some of the best
and trendiest restaurants,
bars and shops. Since the
economic crisis that brought
down Argentina in the late
20th century, Buenos Aires
just gets better and better.
New places to eat, shop and
dance open all the time, as if
to help porteños (as Buenos
Aires' inhabitants are called)
to forget the problems the
country still faces.

Nobody dines before
22.00 and the nightlife
never starts before 02.00.
The chicest shops are in
Palermo but most of
them have an outlet
branch on Aguirre Street.
Look out for the sales.
Taxis are cheap but the
drivers will try to charge
as much as they can.
Research the route and
make sure you stick to it.
Even male friends greet
each other with a kiss on
the cheek.
Buenos Aires was
Unesco's World Book
capital in 2012. Do some
research on Borges and
Cortazar – they are
essential for any pub talk.
