I think what makes Jazz B work is that the music literally and figuratively takes center stage at the bar. The food and drink menus are a bit limited, but they have all the classic drinks (their Old Fashioned is about the closest you can get to a Sazerac in São Paulo), and the food options range from things to snack on to pastas and grilled meat dishes. The acoustics are decent, and seem to improve as the band warms up. In my opinion, it's a venue all live music fans have to go to, and it's great to see the downtown scene rising from the ashes.

Although, they had an English language menu which was perfect! I ordered the Saint Peter which was a seared fish fillet with asparagus and broccoli and carrot infused rice. I could not get over how delicious the rice was, but the fish was okay due to the fact that it tasted premade and lukewarm. Also, I ordered iced tea, but it was the sweetened Lipton tea in a can. It was okay. Overall, I was satisfied with a decent sit down meal. It is easier to pay with a credit card as opposed to paying cash. It took them a while to locate cash to provide me changed.

Pasta seems to be the most popular dish for lunch, but seemed too heavy for me. Ordered water, and got a small bottle. I don't know how far I would have gotten ordering on my lack of Portuguese without my friendly translator helping! Ask for an English menu if you don't speak Portuguese.

To start, we had the fresh oysters which totally trumped my previous favorites at O Catarina in Perdizes. Peixaria's are a must. We also had the muqueca and grilled fish (they have a rotation of them, served with banana farofa and pinto bean salad), and both were delicious. Great place for a casual dinner and also to bring visiting friends.

The place is pretty intimate and always plays music that'll have you opening up your Shazam app. Every time I've gone, there's a decent crowd but the nice thing is everyone's filed away into tables; so none of that bumping elbows to make your way to the bar. The cocktail menu features a mean list of gin and tonic preparations and the Camden Town comes served with a tea bag (this is my friend's favorite). As for me, I tend to stick to the classics and opt for the Vesper (perfectly balanced and prepared) or a Negroni (similarly fantastic). I even ordered off the menu when I asked for a Penicillin. Despite not knowing the ingredients, the bartender pulled it up on his phone and mixed away. It ended up being one of the better versions I've had! There's also a great food menu to ward off evil hunger pangs and the items I've tried have all been great (I love the potatoes with the egg on top). Overall, Barê is great for before/after-dinner drinks. It's a great refuge whether you're dressed to the nines or sporting jeans and a t-shirt.

I've gone for lunch twice and enjoy sitting outside taking in the sun, sharing a bottle of white wine and splitting a pizza or bowl of savory spaghetti. The surrounding area is perfect for shopping, so it's no surprise that this spot attracts the well-heeled of São Paulo. You're likely to hear a number of different languages spoken at nearby tables and the menu comes in both English and Portuguese. Scene aside, I have been impressed with the food. The pizza is top notch, and of the thin crust Naples style, and the pasta dishes have been equally as toothsome. A great Saturday or Sunday lunch spot.
