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.
Gibraltar

Bars in Buenos Aires are endless yet Gibraltar is quite unique as it almost feels like you're in a pub in London when you step through its doors (good or bad thing? Who knows). Its selection of locally brewed cider, British beers and quite yummy pub grub make it an excellent rainy day or Sunday afternoon option in the city.

As the name suggests, "Puerto de Frutos" was once a stopping place for fruits making their way to the capital.
Today, the fruit is gone and in its place are vendors selling souvenirs, restored furniture and places to find a meaty steak, tasty choripan and/or delicious churros.

JOBS is another great option for a rainy day and to hang out with locals: billards, pizza and jugs of beer on tap. Perfecto. It's also a good place to let off some steam and if you're looking to do something with a bigger group.

The Alvear is one of those extravagant hotels that only ridiculously rich people can only afford to stay in. However, one thing you can do that won't blow the budget is have afternoon tea there at the "L'Orangerie". The surroundings are as stunning as the towers of sweet treats served with a selection of multiple teas. Deliciously decadent!

San Antonio de Areco, a small town situated 1.5-2 hours drive outside of the captial, is Argentina personified: gauchos; leather goods, 'mate' by the river and parillas on every corner. It's a perfect day trip or even better, to stay a few nights and really soak up the laid back atmosphere and extremely delicious (and much cheaper) food.

My mouth waters just thinking about this place, with its mix of Latin American food; from Colombian arepa to Mexican Huevos Rancheros #nomnom.
I also love that it's so beautiful decorated with colourful chairs, funky crockery and eclectic interiors.

After not too long in Buenos Aires you'll discover that locals love their sweet treats. Tostado y crema queso is a breakfast or tea time favourite that basically consists of bread, cream cheese and jam. Tiendas Naturales offers the freshest and tastiest version I've had so far.

"Folk You Monday" is a great live mic night and the bar it's held in, "La Dama de Bollini", is very quaintly situated on a hidden cobble stoned street between Recoleta and Palermo. The night is a mixture of amateur-professional musicians which makes for some great entertainment as you sip on your vino and enjoy your surroundings.

Il Ballo del Mattone is quite special as it's not only a restaurant but also a live music venue so you never quite know what to expect on a visit there. For example, on my first visit, we were entertained over our bowl of gnocchi and bottle of red wine by the Argentine equivalent of Artic Monkeys (luckily we were in the mood for it).
