08 Sep 2009 Brunno, Brazil (Traveller): There's a supermarket in front of the hostel that can be a good option for those who want to save some money and make their own food in the kitchen. Don't leave Salvador without trying the famous Bahia's traditional food Acarajé. You can find many around the city, but the best one I tried was also in Rio Vermelho neighborhood. |

08 Sep 2009 Brunno, Brazil (Traveller): Night life entertainment can be found in the close neighborhood called Rio Vermelho. You can find many bars, restaurants, friendly atmosphere on the streets, samba presentations! Don't miss the samba in Pelourinho during the weekends and the famous group Olodum on Sundays and Tuesdays. |

08 Sep 2009 Brunno, Brazil (Traveller): I'd suggest a walk from Farol da Barra (near the hostel) to Pelourinho... it's like a 1-hour walk, but very nice to know the surroundings better. On the way, you will see the real Salvador, its people and way of life! |

10 May 2009 Leanna, USA (Traveller): There is a churrascaria sem peso a block back from the beach on (rua? av?) A.Celso. For R$ 9.99. This means they don´t weigh your plate and charge by the kilo. They had several vegetarian choices. They seem to be a lunch place, closing at 17:00 on Sunday. |
