Overview

Step into Once, one of Latin America's largest Jewish areas, and discover how Jewish communities from across the diaspora made Buenos Aires their home through food, traditions, and everyday life.
Guided by Débora—granddaughter of Raquel, who fled the pogroms in Ukraine—you'll explore how generations of immigrants brought their recipes, customs, and culture to Argentina.
Along the way, we'll visit local cafés, bakeries, and family-run food spots, tasting recipes carried across generations—from Ashkenazi comfort food to Sephardic and Middle Eastern specialities—while discovering the storey of the Jewish diaspora in Buenos Aires.
