The Victoria is a gastronomic center that brings together 3 types of cuisine, a pizzeria (Favoritt), a Japanese restaurant (Waikai) and Victoria's own contemporary.
The complex is located in a privileged environment within the office of the Jockey Club do Rio de Janeiro.
The restaurant has a deck that looks out onto the racetrack and on weekdays you can have lunch and dinner by twisting bearded. In view of this deck is amazing!!
Although the local lavish sophistication and glamor, the prices are not salty. It is a good place to take mom to do a social, the wife to clean your bar or even a would-be future girlfriend so I can impress!
It's worth giving!

For those who like to drink a good bottle of beer, eat delicious snacks, all in a very relaxed atmosphere and beautiful people, should go to the tavern Salvation.
From the outside, it seems just another house in Botafogo, but inside the picture changes. A bar in the style bohemian Rio. The second floor houses a pool you guys have fun.
It is good to arrive early because the place fills. Is the staff is there to make that beer after work and have staff that comes a little later to do a pre-night.
Well right there is the home of Mother and by the way of salvation is the same owners.
The Salvation located at Rua Henrique de Novaes, 55 - Botafogo

Well, not only the lives south of Rio de Janeiro. The suburb also has a very good thing. One is the samba Workers happens every Monday from 15h to 21h. Jeez time that ingrate!
This samba rolls at the club Renaissance in Andarai, and is frequented by many icons of samba carioca.
The place in itself is special, was founded in the late '50s as a place of fun and black assertiveness. The club has a courtyard with a tree in the middle, which seems to ask to have a samba by.
The wheel has become a big hit in the city, about to launch CD and DVD showing the artists who were present.
For those who like samba is a good tip!
If you is not working and so second is a day to go bad for you, roll a wheel held by the brother of Zeca Pagodinho Saturday afternoon and also bomb!
The club is located at Rua Barao de Sao Francisco, 54 (near the supermarket Guanabara) - Andaraí - Tel :2572-2322
This hint of happy hour is for those who like blues and rock and roll and that was exhausting day of work. The place is Banca do Blues.
Who is the banks do not see anything different. Apparently a normal banking newspapers and magazines, but the fact that the blues is the soundtrack to the environment is an indication that this place has something more.
Well, the bank is in a corner of downtown Rio and has a special area, that some time has been the scene of incredible shows and believe me, completely 0800! That's right free, just come, buy a beer in banking and enjoy the sound!
Big names such as JEFFERSON GONÇALVES and BIG GILSON have performed there, bringing the crowd to delirium.
If you order this program to meet the Rio lovers of blues and rock and roll just go in AV. RIO BRANCO, 311 (LEFT AV. PRES. WILSON) - CENTRO - RIO DE JANEIRO.

If you are in Rio, there are several internationally known beaches that you must know. Copacabana, Botafogo, Ipanema, Leblon are all very beautiful and worth a good walk along the shore.
At the end of Leblon beach exit, a gazebo with a stunning view. On a sunny day, and that Rio is worth a trip to the site for the record your visit for posterity and of course, take that wave with fellow!!
At the site, beyond the deck to enjoy and photograph the view, there are kiosks where you can take coconut water or a cold beer.
The best view is early morning, because you can literally enjoy the sunrise.
It's worth checking!
