Ultimo Beso - Buenos Aires' Best Tea House

I loved my first visit to a restaurant the other day. After getting my retractible leash at Amor Animal we headed over to the nearby Ultimo Beso in the Palermo Soho neighborhood of Buenos Aires. Argentina does not have that many propper tea shops, and Ultimo Beso is by far the most girly and romantic. Its shabby chic mix of furniture blends seamlessly with the outdoor area which is pet (and smoker) friendly. Even though it was still technically winter - burgeoning on spring - the garden at Ultimo Beso was green and sported a few early rose blooms in its trellices. My dads had been here for dinner and, especially, dessert several times before so we knew we were in for a treat. All of the teas are paired with a movie that embodies their flavors, and the menu is perfect for someone looking for a light meal after night after night of steaks. Of course we went there for coffee and tea with a dessert (as a snack before dinner). The brownie with dulce de leche and the lemon pie with a marshmellow topper are both to die for... and my dads had both, as always, while I explored the outdoor area. I can't wait for it to be spring to go back to Ultimo Beso for another delicious snack!

Restaurant Reviews

This is just the beginning but soon I expect to be getting out and about a lot more. Here I will keep a list of links to my reviews of Dog Friendly restaurants I go to with my dads. Hope the space holder post isn't too bothersome...

Starbarks Coffee Sunday

My dads and I decided to go for a Sunday stroll to Starbucks for a nice morning snack. I am still too young to walk on the street (I get my second vaccine next weekend and then 2 weeks later can finally hit the ground running). Even though we live in Recoleta, and it was quite chilly out with the Antarctic winds blowing our way, we went to the Alto Palermo Starbucks where they used to spend a lot of time before moving from Palermo to Recoleta. While I really like going outside and all the sights and smells, I do not like wearing my clothes for too long. So far I have only gotten a few outfits and I am wearing my favorite here. It is a red fleece lined plaid outfit with velcro straps across my chest and belly - from Amores Perros. I got it a little bigger than I am right now since I plan to grow a lot in the next few months.

After the walk over I was so happy to be in line in the warmth of Starbucks, and I was surprised I was allowed in... but once we got our coffee and snacks the security guard saw me and despite my cutest puppy face possible we had to sit outside. I was not looking forward to a chilly breeze as my dads tried to enjoy their caramel macchiatos, but imagine my surprise that Starbucks has installed heaters in the overhang of the outdoor patio. As we enjoyed our breakfast I was wrapped in a wave of warmth, outside!!! This is definitely a spot to remember and I look forward to more Sunday coffees at Starbucks, or as I like to call it Starbarks...

On the way back I met some other Miniature Schnauzers, including a really handsome boy who is Salt and Pepper like me (or like I will be when I grow up), and Daniel a Pharoh Hound, with eyes like his namesake Prince Daniel of Sweeden, who was wearing 4 layers - he is much more patient than I am...

My thoughts on Amores Perros and their amazing clothes is coming soon, I promise!
