The people of Buenos Aires are a wildly passionate bunch
and being a fan of the national team is basically its own religious sect
especially when it comes to beef and pizza
Some porteños stick to specific cuts of steak grilled over a wood fire (never coal)
and praise the city’s infamously fluffy pizza with minimal sauce and abundant cheese—forget a thin crust
Dinner usually kicks off around 10pm and lingers until well after midnight
That’s the case whether you’re sitting for multiple courses at a tasting menu spot in Colegiales
nursing a malbec over small plates in one of Chacarita’s modern wine bars
or loading up on grilled beef at any parrilla (classic steakhouse) in trendy Palermo or touristy San Telmo
because many restaurants offer discounts if you don’t use a card

the current hub for all the restaurants where the chefs use tweezers
The menu has things like wild pig empanadas baked in a stone oven
which are fried dough fritters with greens
They use the best seasonal vegetables and fruits from local farmers
and even whip up desserts with loquats harvested from the nearby trees
Sit on the patio and you’ll likely see their pet hen named Catalina wandering around
Narda ComedorMariscal Antonio José de Sucre 664 Buenos Aires
Belgrano
After you’ve eaten enough meat to feel like you could have personally shut down a dairy farm
It’s run by a famous Argentine chef who opened the spot in 2017
and the menu has a number of solid plant-based options
Palta que lo Parió is one of our favorite dishes and is made with toasted bread
Definitely grab a spot outside when it’s nice out
especially since they’ve got a great view of the park in Bajo Belgrano
RouxFusion
What looks like a cute little corner bistro in Recoleta is actually one of the most popular fine dining joints in Buenos Aires
French-Argentine Roux is the place to order things that aren’t beef-centric
like the octopus risotto and beet carpaccio
This white-tablecloth spot is definitely on the more expensive side for Buenos Aires
MishigueneJewish
Palermo
TreintasillasFreire 700 y Federico Lacroze Buenos Aires
Colegiales
are a unique Buenos Aires dining experience (think of them like secret supper clubs with home-cooked meals)
Treintasillas has been around for more than a decade
and makes you feel like your swanky chef friend invited you over for a romantic dinner in their dreamy courtyard
but vegetables get to be the main character in many of the dishes you’ll try
and you’ll need to make a reservation via WhatsApp
La FuerzaChacarita
La Fuerza is a small bar located on a corner in Chacarita where you’ll eat your meal under dim lights and listen to music from the early 2000s
It’s a great place to snack and drink—try their french fries “a caballo,” which has nothing to do with horses and simply means they come topped with two fried eggs
You could also get their chickpea-based fainazzeta pizza if you want something closer to a full meal
Pair it with their house vermouth that’s made with Andean botanicals
Lado VVegan
Plaza Serrano and the surrounding streets are where everybody goes out for the night in Buenos Aires
But instead of (solely) drinking malbec or eating choripan
you should come to Lado V for vegan food like mushroom tacos and a lentil and carrot burger—oh
and also to dive into a ball pit surrounded by neon lights
It might sound like a vegan McDonald's from the ‘90s
but this spot has good food and is extra fun
Don JulioSiga la VacaEl LitoralBalvanera
Since this steakhouse is located a few blocks away from the Parliament building
you can expect a totally local crowd of government workers who come here for a meat charge between all that legislating
Spring for either one of their huge steaks with fries
or a bondiola sandwich filled with shredded pork loin
There’s no better place to practice your Spanish and learn a word or two in lunfardo
Los ChanchitosVilla Crespo
Pizzería GüerrínPizza
San Nicolas
This spot has been whipping up the best pizza in town since 1932 on the centrally-located Corrientes Avenue
fluffier dough fully covered with cheese anywhere else
Avoid the crowds by going for a very early dinner (or Argentine lunch) around 6pm
the line moves quickly and the food comes out fast
Don’t worry about trying everything on your first visit—you’ll most likely end up here more than once
Las CuartetasEstadio Luna Park
The fugazza pizzas are our favorite—you’ll need a fork and knife to pull a slice out of the deep-dish pan
and plenty of napkins in case all that stringy mozzarella and shredded onion finds its way on the table instead of your plate
Do like the locals do and have your pizza with a cold Quilmes beer at one of the standing counters
BancheroLa Boca
Banchero is a legendary pizza restaurant in La Boca that makes great fugazza slices oozing with cheese
Come and have lunch after walking around the colorful Caminito
the city’s iconic (and touristy) stretch of souvenirs
and colorful historic houses of the first immigrants who came to Buenos Aires
Banchero has big wooden doors that are hard to miss
not to mention lots of old photos on the walls and a huge painting of the neighborhood’s port
Pin PunAlmagro
Pin Pun is a small and unpretentious restaurant with three locations in Buenos Aires
This one is in the old neighborhood of Almagro
on Corrientes Avenue but off the tourist track
It’s easy to find—just look for the red wall and neon lights
and follow the smell of fresh-baked dough and browned cheese
It's a great place to come with a group and yell along with the locals during a Boca Juniors vs
Don IgnacioCentro AsturianoSpanish
Montserrat
Once you walk into Centro Asturiano, you’ll feel like you’re in an old tavern in northern Spain with wine bottles, vintage photos, and antiques everywhere. Come for lunch after you tour the Barolo Palace and Parliament Square

and add on some gambas al ajillo that’s served sizzling in the traditional clay pot
Close out your lunch with a cup of custard

commenting that the lightning not only happened during Francis’ birthday and one day before the publication of the controversial document Fiducia Supplicans
“but is also in his home diocese: Bergoglio was Archbishop and Cardinal of Buenos Aires.”
On December 30, Catholic commentator Steven O’Reilly revealed on his X (formerly Twitter) account that after contacting the Shrine in San Nicolás with a confirmation request in Spanish “the unsigned reply (from the Shrine) did not confirm or deny the facts
“Instead the reply said only (translated): ‘The interpretation of the facts that circulate through these media is not real
which is why the Sanctuary does not endorse or agree with them,’” O’Reilly reported
On December 31, also on X, the Lepanto Institute reported:
Some people are questioning the veracity of the claims that a statue of St
Peter in Argentina was struck by lightning on Dec
The Lepanto Institute sent someone to the location to take pictures and confirm the events

Father Ramon Guidetti, 48, of the Diocese of Livorno in Tuscany, marked the one-year anniversary of Pope Benedict XVI's death by claiming that his successor is "a Jesuit Freemason," which prompted applause from his congregation at his Church of San Ranieri in Guasticce, according to The Pillar
Guidetti referenced reports of lightning striking a statue of St
17 at the Shrine of Our Lady of the Rosary of St
Nicolás in the pope's home province of Buenos Aires
Earlier this week, a local journalist confirmed the unusual lightning strike to CatholicVote.org
noting that the bolt obliterated both the statue's halo and the keys in its hand
The outlet said it "confirmed that the lightning episode has sparked concern and speculation in San Nicolás and Buenos Aires
especially since the shrine was turning 40 years old and many thought of 2023 as an emblematic year."
“And what did [the lightning] go on to incinerate?" Guidetti asked during his homily
because there is a Jesuit Freemason linked to world powers
And the keys because the good Benedict kept those."
Guidetti went on to claim that Pope Francis has not been the legitimate pope for the past decade, according to Catholic News Agency
On Jan. 1, a day after Guidetti's homily, Bishop Simone Giusti slapped the priest with a decree of excommunication
accusing him of violating canon 751 of the Code of Canon Law
which prohibits schism as defined by "the refusal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff or of communion with the members of the [Catholic] Church subject to him."
Giusti claimed the priest "publicly committed a schismatic act" during the Mass on Dec
31 and was therefore automatically excommunicated
His punishment bars him from performing any ministerial office or receiving the sacraments
"The priests and faithful are admonished not to participate in any of his celebrations or other worship practices
as they would ipso facto [by that very fact] incur the very serious penalty of excommunication," the diocese said
Guidetti has taken his excommunication in stride
telling Radio Domina Nostra host Alessandro Minutella on Tuesday that he intends to frame the decree and hang it on his wall
in reality it is a tyrant," he told the Catholic outlet
Bishop Giusti told local Italian media that Guidetti had been warned previously not to exhibit a schismatic attitude
but noted that the priest had already packed his bags
and left before the decree of excommunication was handed down

and "Saint Francis Solano," based in Córdoba (ACO)
Argentina has been divided into two major provinces: Northern Argentina (ARN)
The province is named after Saint Artemide Zatti

Jan Oblak has been an undisputed starter since then
Simeone has total confidence in the Slovene

and a big club in Italy decided to buy him
and maintained a high competitive level in each season
