SANTA

This small and traditional confectioner's of golden walls is paradise for chocolate lovers.

This is where Evita Perón used to come when she was in Spain to buy lenguas de gato (literally, cat's tongues), one of the most traditional Spanish chocolates.

You can also try their 'santas', made of marzipan and pistachio, pralines, truffles or 'leña vieja' (uneven trunk-shaped milk chocolate that truly melts in your mouth). Other specialities include bonbons, naranjines (oranges covered in chocolate), marrón glaçé (sugar-glazed chestnuts) and giant 50-gram bonbons.
