We Had a Love Affair With Chicken Bros

Before we went to Donut Therapy, we went looking for some wings. So we visited Chicken Bros., at Thames 1795 in Buenos Aires and we were not disappointed!
The wings were spicy, and the meat fell off the bones. The meal also gave us a chance to bond while we pigged out.
We were also pleasantly surprised by the mac & cheese. This isn't your typical Kraft box mac & cheese. 
It was seasoned, cheesy, gooey and delicious. Honestly, we would have ordered this for lunch and dinner every day if we were living in B.A.
10 wings costs $220 Argentine pesos ($5.19 USD) while 20 wings will set you back $390 Argentine pesos ($9.21 USD). The mac & cheese was $220 Argentine pesos ($5.19 USD). 
Needless to say, there are other options on the menu like chicken sandwiches and chicken tenders that are undoubtedly to die for. I guess this gives us an excuse to come back for lunch next time we're in town.
Chicken Bros., also offer all-you-can-eat wings on certain days and times. Check the upper right hand corner on the photo below for more details.
They also air the NBA finals. Now I'm not a sports person myself, but I know basketball isn't very popular in Argentina. So for anyone who's feeling homesick and enjoys the game, this is a great place to down some beers and get your NBA fix.
Check out their website when you have a chance. And if you happen to develop a serious craving for chicken wings while you're in B.A., pay Chicken Bros., a visit. You won't regret it.

Went to Buenos Aires for Some Donut Therapy

If you've read about our previous trips to B.A.,  then you know that we love our donuts. But Magic Donuts became Don Us and lost its magic. And so far, Cordoba hasn't come up with anything close to a decent tasting donut.
Fortunately, we got our donut fix when we went to Buenos Aires for some Donut Therapy. The shop is located in Thames 1999 in La CABA and it was better than we could've expected.
There were flavors to satiate pretty much every flavor we were deprived of over the last seven years and even some we didn't even know existed like Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.
The employees are super friendly. But it can get pretty crowded sometimes and there are only a handful of places to sit. But that's okay. We wouldn't mind standing and neither will you if you pay Donut Therapy a visit.
The donuts are huge, and the prices are really affordable. They can range anywhere from $50 to $75 Argentine pesos ($1.42 USD to $1.77 USD) per donut depending on the flavor.
But if there's a particular flavor you want, you need to get there early because once the flavors are gone, they're gone. Of course, you can always come back another day if you're lucky enough to live in the area, or if you're planning to stick around for a couple of days.

Best of all, Donut Therapy is only a couple of blocks away from Chicken Bros. So you can have lunch there and then head to the donut shop for dessert. But I'll talk about some of the delicious things you can get at Chicken Bros., in my next post.
