Bar Luíz
This long bar-restaurant,
with its busy black-tie waiters,
has long been an after-work
institution in Rio. Famous
Cariocas, including Heitor
Villa-Lobos
(see p68),
used to
come here for a
chopp
(draught
beer),
petiscos
(tapas), and
conversation, as his modern-day
counterparts still do, especially
on Friday evenings
(see p62)
