Hip bar with the best burgers in Rio! Club nights, art exhibitions, fashion and food, a true Botafogo cult spot. The warehouse-style venue has a young, trendy unpretentious crowd, and the vibe, quite simply, one of the best in town.

Personal favourite! One of Brazil's most iconic fashion brands. The brand that is founded by Oskar Metsavaht is based on harmonization of contrasts, in which urban and nature, organic and technological live together.

Entertainment & Activities
My venue of choice for some of the best underground sounds from national and international artists and bands. Circo Voador is a legendary Lapa venue. The beautiful, palm tree-lined outdoor terrace is filled with tables and chairs so there is plenty of room for kicking back with a beer, but the sunken dancefloor is the real treasure.

Copacabana's cult samba bar, just don't expect first class service because here it really is all about the music. Sundays samba sessions get really busy so don't expect to find a table too easily, but Tuesday's choro, Wednesday's bossa nova and Friday and Saturday's rodas de samba are all well worth dropping by for.
