Skyfall is opening today and the world will be a better place! We are huge fans of Mr. James, and watched probably 1,500,000 times most of his films (with the exception of the ones starred by Roger Moore...). Our favorite actor is of course Sean Connery, but we think Daniel Craig is excellent in a much more modern version of the character.</div>

We met Fernando in New York many years ago (1998 maybe), he was working in a photo shoot for a friend of mine. We were both from Argentina, the exact same age, we were born in the same city and went to the same places as we were growing up. Talk about coincidences...He was a fantastic photographer and such a nice guy!</div>

Not long ago, the only choice if you were in Recoleta and wanted a good drink was to go to any of the five star hotels in the area. We particularly liked the bar at the Hyatt Duhau on Avenida Alvear, but honestly after a while we needed a new place. And then, voila!, one day we discovered <a href="http://www.tarquinorestaurante.com.ar/" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: #b45f06;">Tarquino</span></b></a>, or maybe Tarquino discovered us, who knows.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We go there quite often, the bar area before the main room (a glass enclosed patio with a tree and everything) is our favorite place to hang out with friends. We usually end up having our meals there, a more casual setting for our taste. The menu is argentine, but very creative and full of surprises, so you can say good bye to the usual steak for one night.</div>

<span style="text-align: start;">But then, as we sat in a very comfortable banquette, all of a sudden we realized the truth: it was like being in a first class restaurant in an international city (we know a thing or two about fine dining, darlings...). It didn't mean a pretentious</span><i style="text-align: start;"> this-place-looks-like-</i><i style="text-align: start;">soho</i><span style="text-align: start;"> kind of thing at all.

As you probably already know, Buenos Aires is a stylish place to visit and a wonderful city to live in. Trying to find a good store to get great clothes and shoes is another matter, as it could be a bit tough, especially if you come from a big city abroad.<br />
<br />
But since we discovered <a href="http://www.elburgues.com/" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: #b45f06;">El Burgues</span></b> </a>our peace of mind is guaranteed. We really like the chic store, the shoes are fantastic and the overall feeling of good quality makes us feel very very good.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
San Telmo is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Buenos Aires. It is where ancient buildings still stand today, after a few centuries of pollution and neglect. It became somehow a trendy place to buy an apartment, or open a store, a while ago but obviously it is not a location as commercial or high end as Palermo Soho or Recoleta...<i>yet</i>.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Property value went up, some cleaning (and also <b>restoration</b>) of the buildings is taking place so everything is looking much better than a few years back where garbage and squatters made the area a dangerous mess. Everything is improving, slowly but steadily.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Defensa street goes from Plaza de Mayo (of Evita fame) to the flea market in Plaza Dorrego, and all of those blocks--too many!!!-- have become an open air market. Not as charming as one would hope but still alive and full of people. But unfortunately for all these tourists and locals alike, the question of where to have lunch (a good one) remained unanswered for many years.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But fortunately for us (we really love to eat well) there is a restaurant that changed our bad nourished Sundays in San Telmo:<b><span style="color: #b45f06;"> <a href="http://www.lapanaderiadepablo.com/" target="_blank">La Panaderia de Pablo</a></span>, </b>which<b> </b>opened some time ago thanks to the genius of famous chef Pablo Massey. In a wonderful space we had many great meals, always tasty, always argentine, always different. The patio is a fantastic option for those balmy days also, or if you like smoking and can't wait for that ciggy after your stake.</div>

It was a fantastic meeting of beautiful people, good food and open bar that lasted well into the wee hours.<br />
Marina is an extremely talented and sexy artist, and in this album she is showing that a cover version is much, much more than a new performance of a popular song. She is indeed showing her true colors in all 10 tracks, really touching our souls with her warm voice. Our pick? "I wanna hold your hand"...<br />
<br />

<div align="justify">Everything started with a glass of red wine. Piero Incisa della Rocchetta (of the italian family behind <a href="http://www.sassicaia.com/">Sassicaia</a>, the great Super Tuscan wine) tasted in New York a fantastic Pinot Noir from a vineyard in Patagonia and he fell in love. It was a bottle of Humberto Canale by the danish winemaker Hans Vinding-Diers. Amazed by the quality of wines Hans was being able to make, he decided to start his own winery.<br />
<br />
After a long and difficult search, he found a nearly abandoned vineyard in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%ADo_Negro_Province">Province of Rio Negro</a>, with Pinot Noir vines that were over 70 years old (something unusual, because Argentina is land of Malbec). The funny thing is, the vineyard's owner initially refused to sell Piero the land. He told him that any commercial venture would fail. Piero respectfully ignored the prediction of bankruptcy and made a full commitment to follow his dream by buying the vineyard. <strong><a href="http://www.bodegachacra.com/">Bodega Chacra</a></strong> was born.</div><br />
<div align="justify">The small vineyard from 1932 is the foundation for the winery. There are also parcels planted in 1955 and 1967, and another one with new plantings. Harvested manually, the vines are fermented naturally in large round cement vats with the minimum of intervention before being put into the oak barrels. Fermentation takes place naturally in the following six months, and the wines are then left undisturbed before being bottled without any filtration. </div><div align="justify"><br />
The results? Three of the most extraordinary and unique wines in Argentina: <strong>Chacra 32</strong>, <strong>Chacra 55</strong> and <strong>Barda</strong>. They are easily the best Pinot Noir outside of Burgundy.</div><div align="justify"></div><a href="http://www.andreeputman.com/">Andree Putman</a> once said : "To not dare is to have already lost. We should seek out ambitious, even unrealistic projects…because things only happen when we dream". </div><div align="justify"><br />

An apartment that has not been touched in over 50 years (not even cleaned!). High ceilings (over 3,40 meters high), magnificent panelled wood doors with a million coats of paint, two tiny and awkward bathrooms, a creepy mini kitchen and a carpet of an undescript colour (we guess it was light blue when it was installed, probably when Peron was ruling the country in the 50's).</div><br /><div align="justify">That was the picture we saw when they called us to help with the renovation. Buenos Aires is full of those surprises. A combination of faded grandeur and half a century of harsh economy combine to create something that you rarely see in other places (especially not in New York).</div><br /><div align="justify">The way they lived, those fancy argentinians from the Belle Epoque! Now, things have changed, and an apartment like this needs a new life. We are bringing new plumbing, electrical, paint (yes please!) and especially water and soap to clean those magnificent windows that overlook ancient trees. </div><div align="justify"><br />A french touch s'il vous plait, for an absolutely wonderful, neurotic, sexy and noisy city.

And there are few streets more fascinating that Alvear Avenue if you love Architecture and want to explore one of the wealthiest neighbourhoods in town. </div><br /><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">We had one hour to kill between appointments the other day, so we took our camera and began our walk. The weather was great--sunny and no humidity at all-- so we started at the intersection of Schiaffino street, right there where the huge and ancient rubber trees are located. Jacaranda trees are in bloom, and their purple flowers added a touch of unexpected colour in an otherwise monochromatic neighbourhood--most of the buildings are made of sand coloured stone or painted in that shade.</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">A great building by <strong>Alejandro Bustillo</strong> to the right, the <a href="http://www.alvearpalace.com/"><strong>Alvear Palace Hotel</strong> </a>to the left...Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Cartier...so far away from Paris or New York, but still the same stores offering the same goods. After we crossed Callao Avenue, more upscale shopping and more fantastic buildings from the 40´s and 50´s. Then, after Rodriguez Peña street we found the only block that still has the original constructions intact: The <strong>Maguire</strong> residence, the <strong>Duhau</strong> residence--nowadays the <a href="http://www.buenosaires.park.hyatt.com/"><strong>Park Hyatt</strong> </a>hotel--and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fern%C3%A1ndez_Anchorena_Palace"><strong>Fernandez Anchorena</strong> </a>residence--that is, the Apostolic Nunciature in Argentina.</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">After this feast of classical architecture, we reached the <strong>Carlos Pellegrini</strong> square. Probably the most elegant park in the whole city, it features and impressive statue of former President Pellegrini and a fountain. This is where you can find the<strong> Embassy of Brasil</strong>, the <strong>Jockey Club</strong> and the <strong>Embassy of France.</strong></div><br /><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">At the end of our walk, exhausted and ready for a snack, we crossed the 9 de Julio avenue and ended up at the <strong>Sofitel </strong>hotel--just two blocks away-- for a quick lunch before going back to work.</div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbbzYXC5JeAPrQ-zdGeS_Mn6eLwSKGSxlQF_uMx7i2zdP-RLgB-07Q-7KH2SiWFbRKyvF-oAb94L-WAavXWGBwb7On1HQs8f-4w7infHTzDdEew_77A6HI2k9fKVgUCyFVNEFhjGwhbQY/s1600-h/1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

We are always eager to hear from this artist, and already own a few of his paintings--which proved to be a wise investment indeed.<br /><br />It will be good to see how the whole California experience has influenced his inspiration.<br /><br /><strong>Gallery nine5 </strong><br /><em>24 Spring Street - New York</em> </div>The Chukkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07419948270534649903noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8217654584381948970.post-38819646755280929962009-11-06T05:35:00.022-05:002009-11-08T11:05:40.851-05:00Naná Gallardo, photographer<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaWHQdzCIsvPaVeMDD5YUVAsCOILmc3XNt1XrPWdpw8Zu8PfVuscUrwNuDHKlbaOkbg9u03LEUBwfIjROsk5y-HdHC0grVvDyvjpX0My79SclwtepGH_EJ2EQnxTyD6-_kDUkTOJMWdaU/s1600-h/1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400980990661747778" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaWHQdzCIsvPaVeMDD5YUVAsCOILmc3XNt1XrPWdpw8Zu8PfVuscUrwNuDHKlbaOkbg9u03LEUBwfIjROsk5y-HdHC0grVvDyvjpX0My79SclwtepGH_EJ2EQnxTyD6-_kDUkTOJMWdaU/s320/1.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdbsJVyS6S528zSDXronY0HpYTN1avGhVcZdnotpuIfiDNCUZjHUk4X7VNgvby8DXyu59Hwh6qpMtXvK5IPWmZWxLowox6uvuG_CtItsueoYykPBQXCks4et8hKlYJdj7nGxFLm0uyy_Y/s1600-h/2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 231px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400980992500698210" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdbsJVyS6S528zSDXronY0HpYTN1avGhVcZdnotpuIfiDNCUZjHUk4X7VNgvby8DXyu59Hwh6qpMtXvK5IPWmZWxLowox6uvuG_CtItsueoYykPBQXCks4et8hKlYJdj7nGxFLm0uyy_Y/s320/2.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5cwmpIEGHWf0HRIZUnGEetao4CTlup2ce4vg512hD-iFNW5OxM8pYTg2berKkjelOUbYli-CFY57SOQo4zb-aAhxPCSiJhLEgEf0bd9U5CliyjtQbau6f8ClHiBulpupIoL3rAS0jhIM/s1600-h/3.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 234px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400980783010546082" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5cwmpIEGHWf0HRIZUnGEetao4CTlup2ce4vg512hD-iFNW5OxM8pYTg2berKkjelOUbYli-CFY57SOQo4zb-aAhxPCSiJhLEgEf0bd9U5CliyjtQbau6f8ClHiBulpupIoL3rAS0jhIM/s320/3.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJp8zZ6K_Kwpg7GdE4Sft1hwpsr_QTRh5-QJ16PwOoznZjLwFNrrIHbbbbkM-MVoBTMiSB1aKj0xOoe1Jvf_fnB2_7t9UoWoWipmBN02w0RutLjSmRyOkcrQw-94c27IRQ4BKcQ4xogs4/s1600-h/4.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 231px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400980576670444866" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJp8zZ6K_Kwpg7GdE4Sft1hwpsr_QTRh5-QJ16PwOoznZjLwFNrrIHbbbbkM-MVoBTMiSB1aKj0xOoe1Jvf_fnB2_7t9UoWoWipmBN02w0RutLjSmRyOkcrQw-94c27IRQ4BKcQ4xogs4/s320/4.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdn9RCblH6Nm8p00SZtnvAFwOkrflLjQs0JORj_jY3WRLWoXzWCLZwNRZiSWa10c0ByRPurPZm2rEAjq58-snlrU9tQ6zIF6C9HbqDKKgdsVbR3mN0SUKT8j95ntRJ9lAQyyycUBZLYSw/s1600-h/5.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 237px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400980268675409218" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdn9RCblH6Nm8p00SZtnvAFwOkrflLjQs0JORj_jY3WRLWoXzWCLZwNRZiSWa10c0ByRPurPZm2rEAjq58-snlrU9tQ6zIF6C9HbqDKKgdsVbR3mN0SUKT8j95ntRJ9lAQyyycUBZLYSw/s320/5.jpg" /></a><br /><div align="justify"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTroxISP9ajxLvq1ZtFJQeciSY1jH8BiyxSyoGXU0-4OaHJNVNz4Nz8YjxmE80GNRTLI5BHp9atYw2ulj7SDu92ET_2y290aqWq_vqvpQIPcrPZWAZRBwlb8nZ4-MMEhynIfN9wvMf1tg/s1600-h/6.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400979993259180610" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTroxISP9ajxLvq1ZtFJQeciSY1jH8BiyxSyoGXU0-4OaHJNVNz4Nz8YjxmE80GNRTLI5BHp9atYw2ulj7SDu92ET_2y290aqWq_vqvpQIPcrPZWAZRBwlb8nZ4-MMEhynIfN9wvMf1tg/s320/6.jpg" /></a>We were invited to the opening of a great exhibition the other night: photographer <strong>Naná</strong> <strong>Gallardo</strong>--a talented artist who is not afraid to explore any subject--was one of the artists showing their latest works at <strong><a href="http://www.natan.com.ar/">Natan</a></strong> (a furniture showroom that has been a mecca for interior designers and architects for decades in Buenos Aires).<br /><br /><div align="justify">We met Naná and her friend, the model and actress <strong>Mariana Gio</strong>.
