10 Dance Clubs & Discos in Palermo That You Shouldn't Miss
The birthplace of the tango is, like the dance itself, captivating, seductive and bustling with excited energy. Atmospheric old neighborhoods are rife with romantic restaurants and thumping nightlife, and Buenos Aires' European heritage is evident in its architecture, boulevards and parks. Cafe Tortoni, the city's oldest bar, will transport you back to 1858, and the spectacular Teatro Colon impresses just as it did in 1908. Latin America's shopping capital offers the promise of premium retail therapy along its grand, wide boulevards.

1. La Milonguita

If you are visiting Buenos Aires and would like to feel the local tango experience, how it works, what kind of people attend it, what music tangueros dance, what dressing code they wear, then the Milonguita on Wednesday is a must. Not only is it a glamorous venue but it is also well served, with pizzas or empanadas, and wines and champagnes, and sometimes there is a visiting orchestra or professional dancers performances. If you dance tango, then it is a must! The men/women numbers is well balanced, so solo dancers will almost certainly meet partners to dance. Mind you, the dancing level is advanced... not good for beginners.

Amazing drinks based on the art of simplicity. We always aim for a warm atmosphere with a friendly and laid back vibe (with a shift into crazy when the time comes!) and always the right music for each moment. We push ourselves so hard to be different because, let's face it, you wouldn't want to have the same drink everyday, right?

Our hotel recommended this class when we asked to participate and see tango in a non-touristy way. Costing around 200 pesos each, the class ran from 8-10pm and was so welcoming and supportive that we all really enjoyed ourselves, even those who didn’t plan to! The teachers (I so wish I knew their names) were immediately welcoming and instructed us in the most basic steps while still instructing others in far more complicated moves. We received instruction in English and actually learnt something! Watching the instructors was so inspirational that we plan to have more lessons when we return home. The dance floor was not a war zone, in fact it was family-friendly and our 12 year-old loved it. If you would like to get a sense of what tango means to real Argentines, I think a class (or two) at Milonga Canning is a far better option than the expensive tourist shows. This may have been the highlight of our time in Buenos Aires.

We wanted to explore Argentine Tango culture some how, some way, and stumbled across this place which turned out to be perfect. Although we considered the bigger shows designed for tourists we looked instead for something more local and found it here. Just a entrance at the street, walk back and it opens up to a medium sized dance floor surrounded by tables and chairs. We arrived at 9 and there was already a class going on. We watched from a table as the dance lesson finished and then signed up for the next one. Our lesson started at 9:30 and beginners, like us were broken out from more experienced dancers. While they learned advanced techniques, we learned the basic step. The lessons were partly in English and partly in Spanish but it was easy to follow along in either language. After the lesson we stayed and around 11:00 the whole place was filled with locals who had reserved tables, and it seemed that some even had reserved drinks as they were served without giving an order. Many seemed like long time regulars which may explain the drinks. All the closest tables to the dance floor were reserved but we could still see the dancers from a back table. The regulars came prepared carrying in dancing shoes and hand fans used to to cool off with after dancing. Drinks included wine, beer, and a limited selection of well drinks. We got a bottle of Champagne and two bottles of water for A$900 or US$12 (including tip). It was great to see the whole spectacle of Malonga culture play out before our eyes. The clothes, the characters, and of course the dancing were awesome to take in. It wasn't a show, and we were kind of being taking advantage of the situation by gawking at it instead of fully participating, we did dance a little, but still it was awesome to feel like we are seeing the real deal.
