Any places in Once you'd recommend? I'll need cash well before mincha.
Whatever you'll need cash for you can probably pay in dollars on the 'blue' rate -known as "Dolar azul".
I payed my taxi a couple weeks ago from EZE to Once in dollars (i think it was a dollar per AR$8.5)

Or just have the taxi stop on Once for you to do a quick trade.

So do you think I can get 9 or 9.5 per dollar now? Did you only get 8.5 because it was a cab driver?

-1.
I was offered in between the Compra and Venta rates.  Probably could have gotten even more if I looked around more.

Figured you meant 15 cents under the Compra. 
15 cents under Venta would make sense :)

I think as long as you get somewhere between those rates you did fine.
Really fun to buy everything at half price :D

Alfajors aren't all that exciting, Asian is.
And boy was it cheap, especially with the 10% discount for paying in pesos instead of my CC :D

Definitely email them beforehand to see if they'll make you roasted beef!

It's fun to try all that stuff from Kokush but it's nothing I need.  Churos were good too, but nothing Id fly to EZE for.

Now the Ice Cream and Asian, that stuff is exciting.
