Share a plate of hummus with the talkative shaggy-haired twentysomethings near your table at this tiny and noisy but bright meeting spot, a veritable step up from the cheap and down 'n dirty bars next door that hardly sacrifices the people-watching perks you get from the famously busy corner of ruas Fernando de Albuquerque and Augusta. Inside tables are few, but outdoors on the sidewalk is more pleasant anyway. The falafel sandwiches are handy and satisfying. Stay cool, meu: You might see these people later at the club tonight.
