Rio de Janeiro Shopping

  1. Esch Café

    This restaurant-bar is also the House of the Havana, which means if you have a taste for the Cubans, this is your place. The humidor is stocked with a decent selection, which you can enjoy there over a glass of port, or a few blocks away on the beach (over a sunset). They also have a branch in Centro (Rua do Rosário 108).

Regulars sit at the table in front slowly drawing on the pick of the day while the afternoon drifts by, smoke like. In back, the glass jars contain a variety of flavors and aromas. Let the shopkeeper put a mix together for you.
