Hipódromo de Palermo
Free entry
Craving the classics? Making its debut in Buenos Aires, more than 35 food trucks will gather at the Palermo Hipódromo to help appease your hankering at the Festival de la Milanesa.
More than 100 varieties of milanesa will be available to try, from the traditional to the artisan, to Maryland-style to Swiss-style, to vegan and gluten-free milanesas.
And because a milanesa festival isn’t Argentinian enough, the vendors will also feature desserts that showcase dulce de leche. BYO Fernet and Coke.
Various workshop times and dates in both Spanish and English
Tickets can be purchased through Airbnb
Pachamama (Benjamín Matienzo 1559)
If your Argentinian appetite still hasn’t been quenched by the milanesa food festival, you can make your way over to a mate tasting hosted by Mate & Co.
Learn the history and culture behind mate, how to make your own mate, and get the low-down on sharing mate, so that you know what to do in that awkward moment when someone passes it your way.
There’s also a mate tasting, where you can try the company’s different flavors — from ginger to lemon to tropical coco (we recommend going for the chai flavor).
Cine Gaumont – Sala 3 (Av Rivadavia 1635)
Show times: 1 p.m. / 3 p.m. / 8:45 p.m.
The movie Un buen día premiered in 2010 and lasted only one week in theaters. Critics slammed it and considered it, hands down, the worst movie in Argentine film history.
It was a star alignment of failed components, like completely off-key performances by lead actors and a pompous and nonsense script. But years later, a group of fervent fans rescued it from oblivion, turning it into a cult movie and a seminal part of Argentina’s pop culture. As it usually happens with all-out disasters, you simply can’t take your eyes off it.
Néstor Frenkel’s documentary Después de un buen día, which premiered last Thursday, describes the original film’s backstory and its current fandom. A thorough and good-hearted description of producer and writer Enrique Torres’ journey as he discovers the huge cult around his biggest failure, Después de un buen día is also a film about something that only those things that provoke true love can get: a second chance.
