Description:
Everyday except Fridays and Saturday, you can come here and listen great (and sometimes, not so great) Fado. I'm not gonna bore you about the history of Fado - if you don't know what it is, look it up. All you need to really know is that Fado is beautiful, sad and melancholic. If you're into that type of thing, listening to a man or lady sing along with four (great) guitarists in the background will get you going. The Fado sung here is known as "Fado Vadio" - they're not professionals, yet they're not amateurs. Anyone can sign up to sing a Fado here - provided you actually know how to sing Fado. As an American girl I met the other said: "It's like Karaoke... but Fado Karaoke!" Uhm, not exactly. But sorta. Important thing to note is that this fado house is not as pretentious as some other places around Bairro Alto - which is good. And you can also eat well here.
