BUENOS AIRES BARRIER-FREE BARGAINS -- PART 9
BUENOS AIRES BARRIER-FREE BARGAINS
By Steve Wright
Palermo, which is so big it has numerous sub-areas known as Palermo Hollywood, SOHO, Chico and Viejo.
Palermo is where the cool people dine, drink and design.
The eclectic portions of Palermo have lots of cutting edge fashion boutiques, low key outdoor cafes and high energy bars and nightclubs.
Because of its international popularity, Palermo has more menus in English and more service workers versed in “Ingles” than other parts of the central city.
There also are large, peaceful urban parks and four restaurants on every corner.
A great gastronomic day in Palermo includes breakfasting al fresco in the interior courtyard of Home (a small boutique hotel that has a well-ramped entrance and features barrier-free guest rooms), lunching and dining late night at La Baita (dreamy décor and flawless homemade pasta.)
TOMORROW: Buenos Aires’ urban core – from La Boca to Barrio Norte to Belgrano
