I've now been living in Buenos Aires for about a month, and my only disappointment is the absolutely horrible coffee found everywhere. I lived in Costa Rica once upon a time, and became forever spoiled with truly great coffee.
I have had to resort to buying my beans at Starbucks, as the 100% Arabica Colombian is about the best I've managed to find. The price is $38 for a little bag of beans, which is outrageous no matter where you are in the world.
I have no other complains about Buenos Aires or Argentina though. It is a great place so far. I might just have to switch to tea (or malbec.)
