I was looking up errata on James Peterson's Cooking book and came across your page. Don't ask?! I lived in BsAs for 4 years from 1998 - 2001. The best Mexican place at that time (and I've eaten there since) was Xalapa which is in Palermo Viejo. http://www.guiaoleo.com.ar/detail.php?ID=131 I'll be back in Buenos Aires with my Argentine wife in November. If you're still going strong, then, we'd love to check out your "puertas cerradas". Really cool site you have there! I was looking up errata on James

We had Mexican the other night and it was great because we miss it, but can't compare to all the Mexican places I used to go to in Chicago. Am glad I found your site and will link it to mine because you are a great source of info. If you come to MVD ever, let me know!
