    You gotta love Emporio on a Tuesday night...a ton of people go for drinks and hanging out. This is definitely my hang out spot when in Rio!

    Found out about Wednesday night hip hop and house music at Fosfobox through Bem Brasil…read moreEntertainment on Facebook, so me and my friends decided to check it out. We discovered it was only a short 8 minute walk from our apartment rental (score!) Walk in and the top floor was quite small. A few people were dancing but mainly crowding the bar. (They were giving free drinks until midnight) After midnight, everyone was liquored up and ready to go! I danced with people from Norway, England, France, Israel and of course Brasil. I was surprised at how many people knew the words to some of the songs because some of the hip hop wasn't mainstream that the DJ was spinning. I was delightfully surprised to hear southern American rap music...made me feel like I was back home in Texas :) We didn't really utilize the bottom floor. That's where the house music was. It was much larger, with way more people and way cooler down there, so we'd go down there to cool off in between hip hop songs. haha They have a pretty decent drink menu but make sure when you order a drink upstairs you get a ticket from the window in the corner so you can hand it to the bartender. That was unusual to me, but no big deal. The DJ was good and I had a pretty epic first night in Rio with my girls thanks to Fosfobox. I'll go again next time I'm in Rio!

    This place was recommended to me by a friend from Rio who said after you go, life will never be the…read moresame. I went with two girl friends and we had a BLAST! TIP: get yourself on the guest list through Facebook or your hostel.. otherwise it was 50R. My ONE complaint that made the beginning of the evening very frustrating is the process to get drinks. Because of the eco cups (no disposable cups- you pay a 5R deposit and you can return it for your money back or keep it as a souvenir)-- you go to one cashier to buy drink tickets, but also need to buy cups. It's a crowded place with unorganized lines, so that took forever. Also- if interested in say vodka Redbull, they are separate tickets and purchases. THEN you take your tickets and your cup tô the bar in another location to get your drinks. Seems it would be MUCH more efficient to purchase cups and drink tickets when you buy your entrance and then if you need refills on drink tickets inside, you can purchase. The drinks were yummy, though not super strong. The caipirinha was delicious and sweet, and the Bahama Mama was great! The crowd was full of beautiful people from all around the world- very international. The sound system was OUT OF THIS WORLD! We went on a Wed which is Native Beats- hip-hop, Top40, Latin, reggaeton and Brazilian funk to finish off the night at 4:30a! The bass is so big it'll make your hair vibrate. Bathrooms are unisex which I found interesting. Definitely have more space downstairs, but it gets packed, hot and sweaty. Overall- what a great way to celebrate our last night out in Rio! Would definitely recommend
