Likewise, any suggestions for people who like music, dance clubs and interesting bars but don't necessarily want to be surrounded by *only* 20-somethings? We will be staying at an apartment in Palermo Soho, if that's helpful.
Question 2: is it better to pay for a taxi from EZE in US $, pesos, or credit card?
NYE is dead city in Buenos Aires. I would suggest you make a dinner reservation as soon as you arrive with the assistance of your hotel. Also, check restorando.com.ar for possible reservations. Options will be limited. I can't help you with music/dance clubs but note that a lot of clubs have a very young age range, and aren't even really going until 2am.
Credit card (assuming no fees assessed by your issuer) is almost just as good as cash now for your taxi. I am currently using CCs in Argentina for the first time in several years.
