Excellent bakery on Rita Ludolf in Leblon with delicious cookies, cakes and brigadeiros…read more Had the chocolate chip cookie which the staff heated up for me. Very good--probably the Levain Bakery of Rio, including NYC prices at more than $5 US per cookie which is why it missed a fifth star from me!!....the sliced cake with guava filling looks delicious and runs about $6 US. Cute layout and ambiance with outdoor seating available.

You'll find many imports from Belgium, Germany, and the US along with some Brazilian brews. Don't get too excited before ordering. You'll find they don't have many beers on the menu for whatever reason. It's pretty disappointing but a replacement beer will still be good. The burgers are their main entrée. They're actually very good, and the vegetarian one would be a good choice for anyone! Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Staff doesn't speak much English but does accept credit cards.

Delirium Tremens is on tap, which is good because it's the name sake. I like dark stouts and though they have a few on the menu they don't always stock them. Food is decent and I tried the bacon burger which was filling. It comes with a side of fries. It gets crowded but they've expanded the seating outside which spills out onto the road which is nice for the smokers. The inside is narrow and has only one bathroom for each (male and female). Service was friendly and it's a fun place to hangout at.
