Journalist Sorrel Moseley-Williams first landed in Buenos Aires in 1998 and detested every second of it. After living in Misiones and Mar del Plata that year, she mellowed with time and since moving back in 2006, wouldn’t be without her beloved BA. Sorrel works on the economy desk at the Buenos Aires Herald by day and Screen International, Time Out, Oryx, Songlines, ON Mag and SHOP Argentina whenever there is a spare moment that doesn’t involve a basil daiquiri or a glass of trusty Malbec - all in the name of research for her Wining On blog.

Bafici 2012 – The Biggest Indie Film Festival in Latin America

Although movie-making may not be the first word beginning with the letter M to be associated with Argentina (take Malbec, Maradona and Messi for starters), cinema is big business in terms of the number of foreign and Argentinian films produced here and festivals held around the country each year. It’s no fluke that the country has two Oscars to its name…

Buenos Aires Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2012 Culture

Buenos Aires Fashion Week 2012 (Autumn/Winter)

London, New York, Paris, Milan. No need to name any more cities here – you know we’re talking fashion. Although Buenos Aires might not be the most obvious design capital in the world, it racks up loads of points for originality and style, and Palermo is the BA fashion Mecca for boutiques, market stalls, second-hand stores and street vendors flogging their creative wares. So it is of little surprise that Buenos Aires also holds its own catwalk extravaganza, fondly known as BAF Week…

Budget Activities in Buenos Aires

Following up on last month’s post about luxury activities in Buenos Aires, we realised that it’s credit-crunch time (soaring inflation and energy subsidy cuts, anyone?) and have unearthed some economical Buenos Aires days out, including a downtown spa, French tea-time treats and sightseeing with a difference.

Luxury Activities in Buenos Aires

Although many visitors make a beeline for Argentina because of the peso’s good value compared with the pound or dollar, why not spend some of that saved cash on some luxury activities in Buenos Aires? From spa sessions to polo lessons, Buenos Aires serves up these days out, and more, on a spoon so silver it could have been dipped in the River Plate circa 1810.

Cariló Sightseeing- The Pine Forest Travel

The Pine Forest Beach of Carilo

When porteños need to escape the city smog, they head to Cariló, Argentina’s ‘green sand dune’ (its meaning in the Mapuche language). Breezy and easy to get to, Cariló is a top Argentina travel destination and the country’s most exclusive summer resort, a green lung which is a small slice of paradise: a pine forest next to the beach.

The Best Places to Eat Organic Food in Buenos Aires

Although the differences between natural, live and organic foods are not always clear due to people’s unfamiliarity with the concepts, rest assured that cafés, restaurants, markets and shops using these terms are trying to educate the pizza-and empanada-eating brigade to show that organic Argentine food exists, even if it isn’t stamped.

The Best Places for Brunch in Buenos Aires

Although the Spanglish verb lunchear has long formed part of the porteño vocabulary, it now needs to budge up and make room for brunchear, an Argentina food trend which has burst onto the scene – and probably popped a few seams as well, given the number of eateries which have mushroomed to serve up brunch of late. Buenos Aires does offer Argentine twists on classic American, English, and even Scandinavian midday meals.

Alfajores Featured Image Food

We Love… Alfajores

Is it a cake? Is it a biscuit? Who cares? An alfajor can combine chocolate, dulce de leche, meringue, coconut, icing sugar, jam and even mousse – it would be an all-encompassing meal if only it had a meaty filling.
