Buenos Aires' Chinatown, or Barrio Chino as it's known, occupies just two blocks along Arribeños between Mendoza and Blanca Encalada just steps away from the Barrancas de Belgrano train stop. There's a cluster of chinese restaurants, import gift shops and food stores. There's a couple of supermarkets with imported foods and spices from not just China but also Japan, Korea, Brazil and the US. The food here in Buenos Aires is wonderful but I do occasionally get tired of eating pizzaempanadasmilanesapastacarne so a fortnightly trip to the Barrio Chino has become one of my routines.

Wonderful, colorful, edible and informative. Really nice.
You should have bought the wooden model doll. Great practice for your studio lighting and a great, fun theme for pics.
El barrio chino es para mí como un imán, me atrae... Cada tanto voy a comprar chucherias y alguna que otracosa en los supermercados
