In the bubbling little locale around the Rua Aspicuelta, this little bar is the favorite of the beautiful 25-to-35s, who quaff chopp and sip delicately from long neck Stella Artois, while munching panini and calabresa, admiring the giant photos of the Teatro Municipal and the beauty of their fellow patrons. Weekends from 6 to 11pm there's live MPB and samba.
