El Último Beso in Palermo is my ideal of heaven, (if such a place existed). This is a teashop that opens up like a pop-up book, every corner revealing a new secret. There is a main tea room which leads to room after room of little alcoves, dining rooms, comfy corners and one of the best terraces I have ever seen. This is a mixture of quaint London, Alice in Wonderland and Narnia. Stone tables and statues jostle for space with white, wrought-iron furniture and a myriad of flowers. The desserts are scrumptious and a visit to the toilets is a definite must. Small mirrors cover one wall and about a third of the bathroom is occupied by a claw-foot bathtub, filled with water and floating roses. Absolute bliss.

Muu Lecheria
If you want to escape awhile from the pizza, pasta and meat diet in Argentina, then a visit to Muu Lecheria is definitely a must. An American-style diner right in the heart of Palermo, with a great menu of diner classics such as milkshakes and nachos to Caesar salads and club sandwiches.
Textile Museum in Buenos Aires and Other Sweet Nothings
I managed to locate the Textile Museum here in Buenos Aires this past week. Housed in a beautiful, old building, this is a very small collection of items, detailing the history of fashion. In keeping with the general atmosphere of the city, the museum is deliciously decrepit, with a cloying air of long-forgotten history. I’m so used to the items being behind glass that it came as a big surprise to find that the gorgeous dresses were hemmed in by a mere velvet rope. This is the closest I have been to such magical pieces of history. Absolutely irresistible, I couldn’t help myself and ended up coping a feel of the sumptuous fabrics.
Continuing the Buenos Aires Saga
I find life to be so much relaxed here in Buenos Aires, although that might have something to do with being on holidays! I wish Barcelona had more green areas. The Argentine capital is filled with parks, including the Japanese Gardens. Donated to the city by the Japanese government, this is an oasis of calm, [...]
Buenos Aires, Argentina
I’m off to Buenos Aires, Argentina for the next few weeks, so I’ll be writing about life in the land of dulce de leche and asados. I am completely in love with the city, it’s my second visit and wouldn’t mind living here for awhile. After the never ending Barcelona winter weather, it is such a relief to once more feel the sun upon my skin.
