We don't mix anything with our rice. We like it plain so you can have it with dishes like stir fries, curry etc. I have a rice cooker so I don't have to do much. But if you don't have it and want to cook plain rice. Maybe try the method in this video

No, I didn't.

You see how barrio chino gives you a kind of vibe like you're in Disneyland. I mean it feels like that for Argentinians to me. All things exotic for them especially on the weekend. The place is packed. And all those new and big Chinese bazaars selling knickknacks and household stuff (with human...

Just about every single day ;)

For the grilled chicken, try this: 🐔 Wichian Buri–Style Grilled Chicken Ingredients 1 whole free-range chicken (about 1.2–1.5 kg), split in half 2–3 tbsp Thai garlic 1 tsp white peppercorns 2 coriander roots 2 tbsp light soy sauce 2 tbsp fish sauce 1 tbsp seasoning sauce 1 tbsp palm sugar ½...

I always go to these 3 places namely Casa China, Ichiban and Asia Oriental. Casa China and Ichiban have more selections of fresh vegetables than Asia Oriental but if you want all the Asian sauces, Asia Oriental has a lot more than the other two.

Most verdulerías owned by Peruvians or Bolivians have fresh chilis that are quite spicy even for me. Or you can get them in barrio chino as well. Below are the photos. These two types are more than spicy enough for anyone. Try adding one chili first, if one isn't spicy enough, add more. I make...

It's from Saigon Noodle Bar but from the one in Villa Ortúzar. It was decent but the portion left me still super hungry.

I hardly order delivery and this is probably why. Look at the price and portion. It's ridiculous. All these for 33 dollars? 🤬

I have a local job with local pay. Without my partner's support, I would never be able to live here comfortably.

The price is first world, the local wage is third. Am I right or am I right? :ROFLMAO:

At Ichiban you get 10% if you buy 60K. I think maybe 15-20% if you reach 100K but I'm not sure. Not all items have discount, though.

No. That's not what I meant. You only get the discount with cash payment. Otherwise, you can pay with cards or whatever.

I went to Ichiban supermarket today in barrio chino. Surprisingly, the price of jasmine rice (5kg) has remained the same since October last year. Unfortunately, no discount is given even if your entire purchase exceeds 60K (cash payment only).

You have no idea 😔
