Bùzios Nightlife

This is the second time me and my girlfriend go to Buzios and like the first time we went to Chez Michou, a cozy charming resto with nice atmosphere, good music and excellent food.
This restaurant is stablished for years and it's getting better and better.
If you go to Buzios and don't go to Chez Michou, is the same as going to Paris and not going to the Eiffel Tour.

This loud and open establishment has a full bar, many tables, and wide open spaces for mingling. I can't say anything about the food because I never ate here, but Chez Michou opens late in the afternoon, and is decorated with enlarged illustrated posters of American icons (Louis Armstrong, Mick Jagger, Jack Nicholson, etc.) and lighted trees. Great place to be loud and mingle.

Located on the Rua das Pedras and un by German (? I could be wrong) expat, Kaiser, this small bar is a true legend in Buzios, and in fact all over Brazil. The outside windows are adorned with back to back photos of Kaiser, his dog, his friends on his boat, photos taken within the bar, etc. There is a sign that reads (in Portuguese, translated) "Sometimes we're here, sometimes we're not." He doesn't just let anyone into his bar. In fact, he locks the door each time he lets in a new patron, but you want to be one of those patrons because you can see the smiles on faces of people going in and out, and hear the Manu Chao blaring from inside.
Upon entering, you will see a dimly lit small space with Kaiser behind the counter usually singing to whatever he's playing. There are candles, napkins with poetry hanging on every available space, people laughing and drinking, illustrations of legends (Bob Marley, Led Zeppelin, etc.) photos of locals and red lights all around. This bar makes you feel like you've arrived. Be a part of the family of Takatakata.

That explains my accident with the cactus in Guapo Loco when I was with Marcio Oamtsu having fun in that very nice bar. That explains also the precense of a great mexican bar in the resort!;)

Marcio and I wanted to take a great picture of this special moment, our first weekend together in Buzios should be soemthing special, and indeed, it was. We set the camera to take an automatic picture and I was really excited for that..I was walking without noticing to the direction of a huge CACTUS....AND THE CAMERA CAUGHT THE RIGHT MOMENT THAT I DID FLY TO THE MOON WITH MY A.S.S. FULL OF THORNS!
