Rio Gay Restuarnats Guide
Dining Out in Rio - A guide to Gay Restaurants
It would be crazy not to avail yourself of the many juice stands in Ipanema, of which Jugo Suco (the corner of Garcia d'Avila and Prudente de Morais streets) is the best and cheapest: Order mango, coconut, or the luscious acai berry.
If you like to be serenaded with sausages by beefy Brazilian waiters all night, try Porçao, a well-appointed churrascaria (218 Barao da Torre St., Ipanema, 011-5521-3389-8989).
Bar Bofetada, Rua Farme de Amoeda 87. Tel: 2227-6992. This basic but very gay-popular, open-air eatery is a great place to relax after a day on the beach and enjoy a beer and some typical Brazilian cuisine.
Bar d’Hotel, Av. Delfim Moreira 696. Tel: 2540-4990. Stylish diners flock to this bar/restaurant, located in the Marina All-Suites Hotel. The extensive drink menu is especially impressive.
Cipriani, Avenida Atlantica 1702. Tel: 2545-8747. Set in the Copacabana Palace, Cipriani offers a taste of old-school elegance, with gourmet Italian cuisine.
Confiteria Colombo, Rua Gonçalves Dias 32, Centro. Tel: 2232-2300. Ride up in one of the old-fashioned, manually operated elevators, and you just might think you’ve traveled back in time. This historic eatery, in the city center, is known for its tasty Brazilian/Portuguese lunch buffet.
La Plancha, Mercado Produtor da Barra, Avenida Ayrton Senna 1791. Tel: 3325-3383. Spanish-style paella and tasty beef and seafood dishes are among the draws at this basic yet recommended place.
Marius, Av. Atlântica 290, Leme. Tel: 2104-9000. This gay-friendly churrascaria (Brazilian barbecue restaurant), serves up an unending array of beef, pork, chicken, and other delicacies.
Porção, Rua Barao da Torre 218, Ipanema. Tel: 2522-0999. One of the Brazil’s biggest chains of churrascarías, Porção is a reliable destination for meat-lovers. http://www.porcao.com.br
