    Porcão

    Posted by sabinekunert 30 November 2007

    First off, you don´t have to be a carnivorous meat lover to enjoy a meal at this place, but it helps.

    They also offer fish, sushi, plenty of side dishes and various salad items to suit even the pushiest of vegetarians.

    The service is excellent, since the waiters pretty much have everyone covered (no matter how crowded the establishment looks), and are constantly looking out for their customers. The restaurant has a nice vibe to it and a beautiful view of one of Rio's many classic locations, the Sugar Loaf (which is a welcome sight after a few beers).

    1)Rua Barão da Torre 218, Ipanema
    2)Porcão Rio's - Aterro do Flamengo
    3)Av. Armando Lombardi 591, Barra

    Zuka

    Posted by sabinekunert 30 November 2007

    A trendy but not pretentious place. Zuka, in Leblon, is a magical restaurant to have an exotic and tasty dinner in. The chef's creativity amazes all senses. I was really surprised by the ambience - cosy but modern, full of hip and interesting people. Definitely a must-try.

    Cosmetic Vacations

    Posted by sabinekunert 30 November 2007

    A multinational agency that helps people from all over the world go to Brazil and have plastic surgery of any kind.

    I planned my trip through Cosmetic Vacations, not having to deal with the bureaucratic process of flight arrangements and such. Whatever type of surgery you might be looking for, these people are specialists.

    They will have someone assist you until your time of departure, making sure everything runs accordingly. I only considered it after being told about them by a couple of close mates, and could not be more satisfied.

    Casa Rosa Cultural

    Posted by sabinekunert 30 November 2007

    Rio de Janeiro is quite an amazing place. Imagine a huge, antique house that used to be a brothel (a fancy one) in one of the cutest neighborhoods of the city. Many decades after its closure, the house now keeps the same name, Casa Rosa, from the old times, but has nothing to do with prostitution anymore.

    Nowadays, its a place that offers so many attractions you wouldn't believe. During the day, it operates as a cultural centrr with awesome classes for tourists. There you can learn, as a total beginner, with few classes, the samba dance and the capoeira.

    If you think you will never get the way to manage such beautiful movements, you are mistaken!

    At nights the place also works as a nightclub, with Brazilian sounds mainly. At Sundays, they offer samba with feijoada, the national and lovely dish included. A must!
