LOUNGES, BARS & PUBS:
Bartman (Flamengo)
This eccentric boteco does everything right. With great Brazilian bar food, excellent beer and a loyal crowd, Bartman also sets itself apart from the competition with its mad decor of kitschy comic book regalia. Try the carne de sol with fried aipim for a real hearty treat.
