Ready-meal delivery in Buenos Aires in Russian: what services exist and how to choose
Verificado:
Short answer: in Buenos Aires you can order ready meals in four ways: through restaurant delivery apps, from a small kitchen on a weekly or monthly subscription, from a private cook found in a chat, and from shops selling prepared food; Russian-speaking service mostly comes from kitchens and cooks listed in Russian-language catalogues and chats. Choose by five things rather than advertising: delivery zone, schedule, price per dish, payment and substitutions. One option in the ArgHub catalogue is Myfoodservice; it is not the only one, and below we say when it fits and when another route is better.
What ways are there to order ready meals with Russian-speaking service?
- Restaurant delivery apps (for example PedidosYa and Rappi): hot food at the time you choose, each order paid separately, interface and menus mostly in Spanish.
- A kitchen on subscription (viandas): meals for a week or a month, delivered on a schedule, with the menu set by the kitchen; Myfoodservice is an example.
- A private cook from a Russian-language chat: home cooking to order, price and terms agreed by word of mouth; you have to vet the cook yourself.
- Prepared food from shops and delis: you pick it up and decide the menu and storage time yourself. What viandas are and how to choose them is explained in "Viandas in Buenos Aires: what they are and how to choose ready-meal delivery".
When do delivery apps fit and when a subscription?
Delivery apps fit single days and a wish for variety: the food is hot and arrives at the time you choose, but each order is paid separately and for a whole week this is awkward. A subscription fits if you want steady daily food without deciding "what to order": you pay for a week or a month and the food arrives chilled for several days ahead and needs reheating. Compare by price per day, not by the price of one order. The calculation for each route is in "How much does food cost per month in Buenos Aires: cooking, eating out or a subscription".
What does Myfoodservice offer?
According to the service page on 08.10.2026, Myfoodservice cooks home-style food in its own kitchen and delivers around Buenos Aires in the evening, 18:00 to 21:00, with dishes chilled for 1-2 days ahead; the delivery zone is inside the ring road and districts are confirmed with the service. There are two plans: "Full menu", 5 dishes a day (breakfast, soup, main course, salad and dinner), and "Day menu", 4 dishes a day of your choice; a subscription runs for a week (5 days, Monday to Friday) or a month (20 days) for 1, 2 or 3 people. Ordering and payment happen on the service page in ArgHub; USDT and Bybit are accepted, and cash by arrangement with the operator in chat. The page description and a sample of rates are in "Home-cooked meal subscription in Buenos Aires: how it works and what it costs".
How much does Myfoodservice ready-meal delivery cost?
Prices on the service page are in US dollars: "Full menu" for one person is 153 US$ a week (6.12 US$ per dish) and 394 US$ a month (3.94 US$ per dish); "Day menu" for one person is 127 US$ a week and 347 US$ a month (4.34 US$ per dish). The longer the term and the more people, the cheaper the dish: a month of "Full menu" for three is 924 US$, or 3.08 US$ per dish. We do not quote prices for other services or apps because we have no verified source: ask each for the total and divide by the number of dishes. Rates may change; the current ones are on the service page.
When is Myfoodservice not a good fit?
The Myfoodservice subscription covers 5 days a week (Monday to Friday) and does not include weekends; the order is placed 3 working days ahead, so it will not work for "tonight"; the delivery zone is inside the ring road and outside it you need to ask; the dishes are chilled and reheated at home. If you need food right now, at the weekend or outside the zone, delivery apps or another kitchen fit better. It is better to know these limits before you pay.
How do you check any ready-meal service before paying?
Check seven things: whether your address is in the delivery zone; on which days and at what hours they deliver and whether someone will be home; the price per dish and per day, not only the total; until when you can swap dishes and what happens to skipped days; how the kitchen handles allergens and diets; which payment methods and which currency they accept; how to store chilled food and how soon to eat it. With a private cook from a chat, also ask for reviews from real clients and do not send a prepayment to a stranger. Storage is covered in "Weekly meal prep delivery in Buenos Aires: how to order and store ready meals".
What if the delivery never came or the food is not what you ordered?
Message the service straight away, keep the chat and the order confirmation, and ask for a replacement or refund under the terms you were given. Consumer rights for an online order in Argentina are described by Defensa del Consumidor (link in the sources). General food rules are set by the Código Alimentario Argentino. Ask about ingredients and allergens to the kitchen itself: ArgHub is a catalogue, and the food is prepared and delivered by the business.
What should you keep in mind about this article?
It is an overview of options, not an advertisement for one service: Myfoodservice is one option and we describe it from its page as of 08.10.2026. For other services we give no prices or terms because we have no verified data; compare them yourself using the list above. Terms and prices change, and the current ones are with the business itself.
