Could this be the cutest cafe in Argentina? I read somewhere that Florencio is the smallest cafe in Argentina, just five tables to sit on and a couple more outside. It's very hard to find, close to the British embassy, in Recoleta. The cakes are the best ones i've ever had. They also have a nice lunch menu with proper salads and sandwiches (no boring tostados here). They are open for dinner twice a week with a fix menu, on wednesdays and fridays.

Perfect place for an old school tea party with friends, now don't take many, though. Remember it's not only the cutest cafe in Argentina, but the smallest..

Go Baraka

Baraka

Baraka became one of my favorite places to go for good organic coffee, pound cakes, amazing sandwiches and the best chocolate cake i've had in Buenos Aires so far. It's in a great area, near plaza serrano, but away from all the (annoying) mess. There's a sunny terrace, which is great, as long as it's not too sunny (too hot!) and comfy couches to sit inside. They have a really nice tea selection by Tealosophy

and the service is generally very friendly. Today I went for breakfast with my dad and then again for afternoon tea with a friend.. vote baraka!
