We buy fruit, vegetables, meat, chicken, cheese, & eggs from the street of shops just off the northwest corner of the plaza in Cafayate. Walk 1/2 block north on Mitre from the plaza & turn left into the street of shops. The man at one of the fruit markets tells me the freshest produce is available on Thursday evenings.
Half a block east of the southeast corner of the plaza, on Belgrano, you'll find the supermarket where we buy paper goods, soaps, fresh milk & yogurt, bread, canned goods, small kitchen items, etc.
Instead of buying wine on the plaza, you can save 5 pesos per bottle by walking 2 blocks north on Guemes to the
vinoteca (wineshop) across from Resto Bar Bacos.
For nuts, dried fruits, tea, beer, & an unpredicatable collection of other comestibles, go to a
pulpería. In Cafayate, you'll find
La Última Pulpería on Mitre, just off the plaza & across from the Macro bank.
Cafayate has at least 2 pharmacies. Amoxidal 500 (
Amoxicillin) is 25 pesos for 16 500 mg doses & requires no prescription.
If you want more than a
chata (literal translation:
flatboat), check out
the hottest cars at Expo Agro.
