Tintoreria Yafuso is the hardest reserva to snag in BA (there's nothing available til 2025😱), but their excellent Japanese comfort food menú al mediodía is first come first serve and changes daily. I went on tonkatsu day – at Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, Argentina

A giant, soft, and delicious freshly baked pretzel from Tognis Café in Belgrano that would make Auntie Anne jealous. You can get it plain with mustard on the side or stuffed with jamón y queso.
