Steak is definitely a popular choice for anyone coming to visit Buenos Aires but in recent years it has developed a restaurant scene that would rival New York and London; Mexican, Italian, Japanese... You name it.

For the theatre buffs out there, Corrientes is the main drag and Paseo La Plaza will offer a welcome break if you're wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of it all. Even if you're not into theatre, Corrientes is good to have a wander down as it's really where the heartbeat of the city is - then escape to Paseo La Plaza when needing to.

La Poesia is a great place to while away a few hours, taking in the more traditional side of Buenos Aires and even feeling like you've stepped back in time. The staff are very attentive and the selection of drinks and pastries is spot on.

One of a series of good coffee joints popping up in the city and - in my humble opinion - one of the best. Also good wifi, kick ass cookies and chilled vibes. A great place to stop off if you're looking for a break from the tourist trail.

At Rodi you're guaranteed to get a decent steak without the tourist price tag. You'll also feel a bit away from all the busyness and feel like you're experiencing a more traditional and authentic restaurant rather than enduring the soulless restaurants not too far way.

Of course, Afternoon Tea isn't the first thing you would think about doing in Buenos Aires but take it from me, taking an hour or two for tea and something sweet is how the locals like to spend their afternoons. In fact, the Argentines coin it "5 O'Clock" (it should really be called "Evening Tea").

As beautiful and exciting as Buenos Aires is, there's a lot more to Argentina that is to be discovered and if you're looking to get a taste of the gaucho lifestyle then you must take a visit to San Antonio... Or even go one step further and stay at a nearby Estancia (there are many not far from San Antonio) and experience life in 'el campo'.

If you're keen to cook something yourself when in Buenos Aires then this place is a good option for some healthier treats and if you're wanting a change from steak!

If you're wanting to sample some of Argentina's best wines outside of Mendoza then you'll want to check out this place. It's a simple bar with wooden tables, a small outdoor space (if you're wanting to sip on your wine outside), small but very tasty food menu and shelves of vinos to choose from - what more could you want?

A great place for a bit to eat and to stop off for something wholesome to eat. Based in the 'Hollywood' end of Palermo, this place is a little haven in the heart of hipster central. The courtyard is often very peaceful and a great place to catch up on emails home or read a book. Staff are friendly and good vibes all round.
