Last saturday I went to architecture & design fair 'Casa Foa'. It was pretty good, but the best thing was finding cafe/deli Belinda. It was especially designed for the fair, but I think (and hope) it will remain open after the fair closes on dec. It's a beautiful space, right by the water, there's a community table lots of outdoor space and they take the chalkboard as a menu thing to the next level. The food is good, if a bit expensive. For lunch you can grab salads, sandwiches and quiche, for the afternoon, cookies, cakes, biscottis.. Now that it's getting warmer it's a good time to get out of Buenos Aires, take the train to Tigre and visit this fair.. Go tiger!
