A few weeks after I arrived in Buenos Aires, I found myself really missing food from home. Besides my dad’s cooking, I thought about a specific Chinese takeout store in my city I used to frequent. A few days later, I was looking for a place to get lunch when I stumbled upon a store incredibly similar (both in layout and the food they serve) a five-minute walk from my apartment! Suffice to say, it’s been my go-to lunch spot ever since.
