NWDS: The bar is located in the Santos district, today the center of expat life, but initially a poor neighborhood with houses built from improvised materials (the original bricolage). Santos’ history seeps through the shape of cropped arches, and the haphazardly laid masonry dating back to 1904, which was revealed during the bar’s construction.
