As the evening progressed, they discovered Frank's, a hidden speakeasy bar. To enter it, you need to dial into a fake telephone booth; however, it's worth it for its in-house sex shop, high class drinks and international DJs.
Live Music
Palermo's nightlife district comes alive with an exciting selection of live music every night. Whether it's jazz or blues, rock or country, there's a style for everyone here.
In addition to traditional Argentinian fare, you'll also find an array of local bands and performers performing in this vibrant neighborhood. Some of Buenos Aires' best music can be found here, giving you plenty of options for your next night out on the town.
Since 1994, New Jersey saxophonist Ed Palermo has been bringing Frank Zappa songs to life in a big band format. However, his passion for Todd Rundgren and British psychedelia shines through in each arrangement he creates.
Drinks
Palermo's evenings are filled with amazing food, wine and cocktails that make for a memorable celebration with friends or colleagues. Start your night off right by having a drink on the rooftop terrace, and end it off at an edgy bar for some serious adult beverages.
One of the most beloved drinks to sip in Buenos Aires is the paloma, an elegant tequila cocktail with an added kick. Bon Appetit magazine calls it "Mexico's most beloved cocktail".
A Palermo is a cocktail made with tequila, lime juice and grapefruit soda (Jarritos is popular), mixed with ice and finished off with a small plate of salt. A properly made paloma should have both sweet and spicy notes.

Food
One of the many charms of evening Palermo is the food sold by street vendors. It's an irresistible feast that should be enjoyed with a drink or two in hand.
One iconic street food is the panelle, made with chickpea flour and water. This delectable treat is often sold by a vendor known as a panellaro who roams around town on his trademark bee motorcycle - known as a lapino.
Palermitanians love panelle as a snack. From the soft sesame sandwich (muffoletta or mafalda) to an elaborate version with tomato sauce and cheese, Palermoites know them for their panelle fix! Another specialty is sfincione: thin bread dressed with onion and tomato then topped off with caciocavallo cheese.

Nightlife
Palermo's nightlife scene offers plenty of bars, clubs and restaurants in Soho and Hollywood districts of the city. Soho is considered to be the most fashionable subdistrict, boasting many bars open all day that transform into hip drinking establishments at night.
One of the best places in Soho to grab a drink is Milion, an elegant spot that effortlessly mixes posh and casual with its lounge-y interior and tranquil garden. It's an ideal meeting spot with lots of people around and the vibe is always positive and energetic.
Frank's Bar is another great option; this speakeasy-inspired bar requires you to dial a password into a faux telephone booth to open the secret door. Inside you'll find an intimate atmosphere, in-house sex shop, high class drinks and international DJs that'll have you believing it's prohibition all over again!
