The name comes from Saint TELMO. He was the protector of sailors, navigators and merchants. According to the Legend, Saint TELMO became the patron of sailors because he continued preaching even after a thunderbolt struck the ground beside him. This prompted sailors, who were in danger from sudden storms and lightning, to claim his prayers.
The saint's spirit built an artsy, bohemian neighbourhood in Buenos Aires called San Telmo. "To find Appetite, an avant-garde gallery that everyone I met recommended, I had to return to one of San Telmo's most atmospheric blocks".
Now, TELMO comes to You.
ENJOY!!
