Overview

Walk through one of the most fascinating Jewish areas in Latin America, where migration, memory, and food meet on every corner.
Guided by Débora—an actress and the granddaughter of Raquel, who fled the pogroms in Ukraine—this experience weaves together family history, Jewish immigration during the war years, and the everyday life of Buenos Aires’ Jewish community today.

We begin in Plaza Houssay, beside murals created in memory of the 1994 bombing of AMIA—the next stop on our walk and the symbolic heart of Jewish life in Argentina.

Once is not only a place of memory—it’s also full of life, traditions, and incredible food.
So let’s experience it:
Step inside a small café with social impact.
Taste pastries whose recipes travelled across oceans.
Stop to taste the flavours of Mediterranean and Sephardic cuisine.
And finally, something sweet at one of the neighborhood’s favourite spots, packed with locals.
Dive into Once, where Jewish food, history, and everyday life come together.
