Also perfect for a cold beer and a codfish ball- bolinho de bacalhau- They also have many different types of cachaca (the Brazilian spirit made from sugar cane)

Nice fried fish! The food takes ages to come though. The place is very simple as well. The tables are in the street (literally). I like going there sometimes though. Very authentic.
