Nothing like a good action shot on the streets, theese kids were doing stunts with Puerto Madero on the background.

 

The Dragon Boat experience in Buenos Aires

Last Sunday I had the opportunity to do some Dragon Boat rowing in Puerto Madero, where the old docks used to be.

The main "Dique" or canal is around 3kms long and you get to row it back and forth with a unique perspective of the city from the river.

The trips are organised by "Puro Remo" out of the "Yatch Club de Puerto Madero"

Saw this Fast talk rapper doing his lirics in Puerto Madero, improvising with passers by, non stop fast talk for hours, kudos.

Best Parrillas in Buenos Aires - Siga la Vaca - Puerto Madero

Hey , going to B.A and not indulging in good beef is like going to Rome and not visiting "La Fontana di Trevi". Definitely Argentina has the best beef in the world, That´s in a cost benefit point of view. You can probably buy a plate of Kobe beef in NY or Tokyo and pay the equivalent of a down payment on a car, but if you have that kind of money do not read this.
Buenos Aires is full of good places to eat meat, that's why I´m only reviewing 5. You can ask any one on the street and they will refer you to a decent resto where you can eat for a  reasonable price and be satisfied.
Today I will recommend a cheap one located at one of the city´s tourist traps. I´m talking about Puerto madreo where you´ll find all types of expensive food joints that offer very good quality food, but are not so great on prices.

Siga la vaca is located at A. Alicia Moreau de Justo 1714 and is all you can eat, including drinks and dessert for a very moderate price (generally 15 to 20 bucks per person, depending on the day of the week). The service is also good, but be advised that if you go at the peak of lunch hour you might have to wait to get in. It has a great salad bar and the grill boasts a good variety of meat cuts. To drink you can choose from Wine,beer or pop served in 1L pitchers.

Dusk in Puerto Madero

Puerto Madero used to be the docks and now has become one of the "chic" districts of Buenos Aires, full of fancy stores and restaurants where you can buy the best steack in town (not as cheap as in other places).
