Credit Cards not accepted This is a small, cozy and incredibly good value Brazilian bar in north Kyoto. You may have difficulty finding elbowroom as the place seats about 15 people with a squeeze, but the menu seems to cover just about everything. The Master probably has not changed the posters or flags that dot the walls since Pele last played for Brazil, but that cannot be said of the music, which is right up to date with the latest Brazilian samba, funk and bossa nova. The hottest samba and bossa nova are spun by music loving bar staffs who knows their Caipirinhas from their Caipiroskas, and they also offer Brazilian coffee and beer for the truly homesick. You can also enjoy the occasional live events. Keep yourself up to date with the bar's local and foreign press and events notice board.
The menu offers a wide range of South American dishes, salads, curries, spaghetti and sandwiches. There is also a variety of Latin American coffees and special herb teas, plus a heady range of wines, cocktails and probably the cheapest, coldest draught beer in town. Three drinks and you can almost imagine you are back in Rio or Salvador during Carnival. There are other restaurants also which serve American cuisine in Kyoto like: Otembakiki
