Great place for good food with a large collection of wine by the glass. Taste 400 from all over Chile. It's closer to a tapas bar than it is to a full-fledged restaurant. As it's getting quite popular I recommend you to reserve, but they keep one small section open non-reserved so you can also be lucky.

Not too many people know this place and I really like it. It has a beautiful decoration, good food and a nice ambiance for a reasonable price. Highly recommended if you are going to Barrio Italia.

High quality fast food. The sausages are homemade and you can find from turky to vegan. If you want something quick but good, this won't disappoint you and it's just around the corner.

Waffle fast food. Sweet and savoury.
I think is getting a little bit too popular and overrated but still a good option if you don't mind waiting for your turn and want something fast to eat sitting at the Parque Forestal.

Another place to eat very typical Chilean food. Unlike "La Vega Central" this place is very tourist oriented so they most likely speak english.

If you are going to museo de la memoria, don't forget to visit the Parque Quinta Normal. My favorite park!
Note: could be a little dangerous in the evening. Don't leave after 6pm and you won't have any problems :) !

Arts & Culture
Personally I believe the MAC should have far better expositions for what it is. Still you might be lucky and see something cool. The building is close to the apartment and very beautiful to see even from the outside.
First friday of the month young people gather outside to juggle with fire! Very cool to see!!

Very impressive building where there are cafes, libraries and a museum inside. Ask for events (music, dance, plays), which is really the lure of this place. On weekends many people gather to dance outside. You can find everything from free style, urban dance and asian music.

The museum presents the history of the miltary coup in Chile in 1973 and the subsequent human rights violation perpetrated by the Pinochet regime in a very powerful and moving way.
Only 15 minues away, taking the Line 5 from Metro Bellas Artes. Get off at "Estación Quinta Normal".

Shopping
If you like street markets, you will love la Vega Central. It's really authentic and very popular. You can find typical chilean food but also Peruvian, Brazilian, etc..
If you want to sit down and eat go to Tirso de Molina, 2º floor.
Be careful with your stuff at all times though, and don't bring expensive cameras, etc.. only a lot of hunger!

Biggest Shopping Mall in Chile and also the tallest building in Latin America. If you are going by metro, get off at "Tobalaba" Station, and then take the "Luis Thayer Ojeda Norte" exit. Then just follow the people, they are ALL going shopping haha.

Sightseeing
This is where the city was found on 12 of February of 1541, and I can't believe it's 2 minutes walking from my apartment. The place is very beautiful and you can see a lot from the top. It's hard to describe what it is. Like half a castle, half a park, I would say. Should be the first thing you do when you leave the flat for the first time!.

Very popular and famous neighborhood for drinking and partying. Good if you want to know what Chilean night life is like, also has some pretty good restaurants. I recommend you to move around "Calle Constitución" and have a look at "Patio Bellavista".

Laid back and bohemian neighborhood.
It has a different architecture (not aristocratic) but super lovely and picturesque.
It's full of cafes, quirky boutiques and a beautiful furniture restorer and mechanic workshop. Perfect for walking around on the weekends.

Personally I find the "Palacio de Tribunales de Justica" far more beautiful than the popular "Palacio la Moneda". It isn't a tripadvisor top ten, but it definitely worth passing by if you go to Plaza de Armas.
