    Argentina - looking for advice

    What's up MS, me and the lady are heading on vacation to Argentina for 2 weeks this Thursday and looking for advice from anyone that's been or lives there. We'll be in Buenos Aires this weekend and probably a few other days, with trips to Mendoza and Iguazu Falls mixed in between. Looking for any advice on partying, clubs, bars, and anything else where we may be able to hear some good house and techno music. Any recommendations on places to check out or where to eat would also be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

        Go to CROBAR
        avoid Pacha unless you dont mind high prices (you have dollars anyway hahah) a very VERY overcrowded nightclub with no AC, and very drugged out people. it will probably be closed anyway...

        if you wanna go to the beach, check out Pinamar, Mar del Plata and Carilo (the last one specially for a couple of love nights hahahah)

        www.buenosaliens.com also.

        www.pueblolimite.com --- nightclub in Villa Gessel (close to Pinamar)

        Bars there's a shit load of them to be honest

        www.vuenosairez.com -- but only in spanish :S

        http://www.nocheenba.com/ -- also spanish only

        http://www.baresyboliches.com/bareshtm.htm --- spanish only too

        Check PALERMO neighborhood at night any day for dinner, walk, beer time, lunch ..... really cool to hang out and just walk around. Major shopping involved. But on the streets no shopping center style.

        Hope it helps ! And good luck !!

          clubland (pacha) - imo the best club in buenos aires, but very crowded (btw: excelent music and djing). Closed in January.

          Cocoliche (dance pub): for a twisted out night, some minimal-tech-house music, nice place, nice/strange people.

          Crobar: it´s nice, I don´t personally like it very much. Main stream music most of the nights. But great djs play often there.

          Anyone here with some dollars to spend is like Jesus, you can get what you want... enjoy it!!
          It´s a spiritual thing!

            as pudrus pointed out, buenosaliens.com is one of the best places to check before going to party.


            i might suggest to go to Crobar
            but also visit Pacha... we that live here, don't like it because is not as good as before.. but still, hell of a club!
            everyone who visits the city and goes there love it.

            email me when you are here if you want, hope i can help

            you got a pm

                  BA in january kinda sucks

                  The best parties are in Mar del Plata mostly.

                  You should try Crobar though. They are bringing cool djs lately

                      mint is called rouge now

                      about the counterfeit bills, try to have different bills in your wallet.

                        No doubt when I was in Mar Del Plata a couple of years ago
                        saw Howells and Martin Garcia back to back nights, make sure you find out where Facu and Martin are playing. Arielus, so the go to man for all that stuff plus can hook you up with the local scene as well. Have fun perfect time of year to get down there.

                        All in all...I think I will be going back there some time soon

                        So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                        1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                        2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                        3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                        4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                        Am I close here?

                          Always fancied Mar del Plata or Punta Del Este ... or Warung ... or Sobremare !

                            Obviously Warung is in Brasil .. and Punta in Uruguay ... so I meant South America as a whole.

                              All of those places rock, specially this time of the year.
