New gay cruising bar opens in Buenos Aires

Zoom at Uriburu 1018, Recoleta, opened its doors at the beginning of June in the premises of the former W.C. It is nothing like its predecessor, the extensive toilets have gone and the interior has been completely re-built. It now has 21 cabins with porno video screens, glory holes and sliding partitions. There is also a dark maze, a lounge bar and a cloakroom. It is very much in the style of the popular Toms. I imagine there is space for two bars of the same genre in this city and the new bar is more likely to poach customers from some of the rather seedy porno movie theatres nearby. Zoom is open daily from 12 mid-day until 3 am and entrance charge is $10.
