BAR AGÔ

The Agô bar ("thank you" in Yoruba, one of the idioms spoken during Candomblé ceremonies) is a great discovery in Santa Teresa. Kananda Soares, who created the concept store "Favela Hype", is behind this bar that honors the Afro-Brazilian origins of the place. Stylized paintings of orixas set the tone. The decoration mixes new and ancestral, like the cocktail menu. (Agua de Oxum, Vulgo Malvadao) and dishes (pork loin flambéed with cachaça). Very good music some evenings. A "place to be" in Santa Teresa!
