Downtown Buenos Aires
March 1st to 5th – Palermo, Recoleta, Centro, San Telmo, La Boca, Puerto Madero (4 nights)
Work before my holidays was excessive and i was home one night between one week in Ukraine and my flight to Argentina. As so often, preparations were rather not existent and all i had organized was a booking for an apartment in Palermo. I stayed 4 days and explored the beautiful city of Buenos Aires just by foot, walking over 70km through in 4 days, so the steaks were well deserved 🙂

Fine Dining – Don Julio
Don Julio is one of the good carnicerías in town and is listed as one of the worlds top 50 restaurants. Recommended. Steak was fantastic, but the Provolone cheese for the start was even better. If you go to Argentina you
have to try italian food, including Provolone and Limoncello. The Limoncello tastes not better or worse then in Italy, but felt a bit rougher in comparison.
