Hi there. I’m Paige, but feel free to call me Página. Or Pilar. I respond to all three. Since 2008 I’ve been living in Buenos Aires and pretending that I am a real person.
At the risk of sounding cliché and annoying, I’ll tell you anyway: I love to eat. My panza is never full enough. I daydream of everything from curry to quinoa, foie gras to french fries. While cosmopolitan and chic in so many ways (except for the whole mullet thing), Buenos Aires often presents challenges to serious eaters looking for variety and quality. Regardless, I’ve discovered plenty of gems throughout my years here and decided it was time l put them all in one place. I figured I might as well put my knowledge to good use, so voila! La Panza Porteña has come to be.
Here you will be able to enjoy the rants and raves of my unhealthy relationship with the Buenos Aires food scene. Expect random tidbits of other ridiculous happenings from time to time as well. If you’re interested in knowing just how inane my life is, check out my other blog, La Página Porteña. If anything, it will be a good time waster at work.
Paige, what a beautiful and helpful blog. I wish I’d found this before spending a few weeks in Buenos Aires last month! I felt like I was fumbling around blind when it came to finding good food (mostly because I didn’t have an iPhone to resort to).
Meghan – so glad you enjoy it! I love what you’re doing … good luck and hopefully you’ll come back to BA sometime soon
