Product Description
Sprawling and strange, magical and melancholy, continually veering between triumph and disaster, Buenos Aires is an irresistible destination. Written entirely by residents, Time Out Buenos Aires casts a cool, critical eye on the places, people, and culture that have made this metropolis great and the contemporary trends that are conspiring to make it greater still. Bypassing the "Paris of South America" clichés, this guide cuts through the confusing jumble of influences that is Buenos Aires’ trademark. The book sharply profiles century-old cafés and world-famous steak houses; word-of-mouth bars and back-street bistros; late-night tango salons and all-night clubs; prestigious cultural landmarks and improvised warehouse galleries. Candid, current, detailed, and informative, Time Out Buenos Aires is the perfect companion for visitors both new and seasoned.

Customer Reviews:
• Time Out Buenos Aires 05 November, 2007
Good read - lots of useful suggestions. Very good on the barrios or neighborhoods.
Somewhat out of date - e.g. the Sydney Opera House style nightclub referenced in the section on the docks has apparently been burned out for several years.

• Buenos Aires On 300 Pages 10 June, 2007
To start off, I have to say that I usually do not write any reviews for items purchased on Amazon, but for the Time Out Buenos Aires Guide I really have to make an exception.
This Book is just fantastic. I moved to Buenos Aires for the summer and I had never been nor had any idea of what the city would be like. With this Guide book I have been to the most amazing and most interesting places. Putting the sightseeing apart this book is so up-to-date on the restaurant, bar and nightlife scene that I have never been out of place. I have met so many interesting people in only 2 weeks because of this book. It just makes a huge difference having an idea of where to go and what to do at any certain day. So if you are planning on going to Buenos Aires for whatever reason, do yourself and your experience a favor and buy this book.
It's an overall well-rounded guide, that gives you Buenos Aires on paper.

• I Love This Guide! 01 July, 2007
After searching through many guidebooks, I settled for TimeOut, and let me tell you, I am glad that I did.
This book gave me everything I needed to know about beautiful Buenos Aires. The places that my Argentine friend recommended to me were all listed in this book, so that shows you how good it is!
Definitely must buy this before going to Buenos Aires, or Argentina itself. Great read, great pictures, great food in Argentina! :)

• Good Book, Good Service 28 October, 2007
Despite what others said about this book containing lots of ads, it's compact (easy to carry along) and very useful. A good buy.
