Last weekend was lucky enough to be able to take Miss Rio de Janeiro out on a date to Antiquarius, one of Rio's best restaurants, which is located in Leblon (Rua Aristides Espínola 19, in case you are passing by).
To be honest, it wasn't Miss Rio and it wasn't a date, it was my girlfriend and we celebrated our six month anniversary, but I felt very privileged to have such a stunningly beautiful, intelligent and witty lady at my table.
We started by having a Cosmopilitan, and it was the best Cosmopolitan I've ever had. While drinking it, we nibbled on loads of delicious appetisers, which the waiters kept refilling all the time. The service was excellent! Very discrete, sincere and friendly waiters.
For main course we both had fish, and for such an upscale restaurant the portions were very large. She had salmon and I had cod, which is a Portuguese speciality, and I could almost not finish mine. We finished off the meal with two delicious desserts, passion fruit cake and home made pistachio ice cream together with strong Brazilian coffee.
It was a very memorable night, even if we ate so much that we were almost unconcious in the taxi back home.
