Prices in the list were in USD and you paid in the local currency (whatever name it had that month), according to the daily (sometime changing from morning to evening) exchange rate.

I recalled I had some small change before leaving one day and I picked up a (weekly) magazine which tag price was right the money I had in the pocket. I hand over the money and the guy says "sorry, not enough, it's 50% more".

No, the prices were in cruzeiros (CR $), just as it said in my post. Inflation yes, but no need to have a menu with prices in a foreign currency.

You guys speak about Brazil being cheap now, but in 1991 it was dirt cheap. In Help you didn't even have to buy drink tickets. Just walk up to the bar man with some notes in your palma and shake his hands and you had your drink quickly. Not to mention the girls, they were all for free if you were young and had some charm. Maybe RioBob remembers? I envy him, who experienced Help in the late eighties. There must have been some hairy bushes.

Sperto,

I'm guessing if that menu is from 1993 the disco had to print a new menu almost every day. The inflation rate was over 1900% that year. It was crazy how all Brazilians had to find ways to deal with hyperinflation in their daily lives.

Is Casarao open now?

For me, Casarao is a state of mind (mine). I'm older than an average patron, but in Casarao it really doesn't matter. Sometimes I love it and sometimes I hate it. Last time I went there after a night in Bomboa in March 2020, I felt, it's a zoo. I still love it and miss it. For a newbie, just know where your wallet is, in many senses. Its totally safe environment.

Personally, I love reading stories about Rio's past. It would be great to create a few threads in the lower section by period - 1990 - 1995,1995 - 2000, etc.
As someone who joined the Rio party a little later, I often wonder why those who came before think Brazilians are so untrustworthy. Was it hyper-inflation and not knowing what tomorrow would bring?

Inflation, yeah, but there was also a little thing called the Governo Militar. It was, as the saying goes, the best of times and the worst of times.

I have the iFone 12 Pro, ISG will not accept my fotos. Anything you can do about that?

Probably the image size is too large. Try sending it first to yourself with the mail app, then save it. After you press the arrow to send the mail, the app will ask you the image size you want to send. You can also WhatsApp the photos to yourself. You can not choose the image size, but it will reduce the size of the file.

My tendency is when I meet someone who has real life experiences is to buy them lunch, dinner or a drink, sit back listen and occasionally ask a question or two. Way too many academics in this world for me who love listening to themselves talk, speculate and misinform.

Most of the places, you'll remember, had the prices written in pencil. Whenever inflation made a note near worthless, it was almost customary to throw them into the street, kinda a statement. Having spent most 1992 and 1993 in Rio, we'd throw them out our window over Atlantico.

You always had to exchange a little bit of money each time. Cruzado, cruzado novo, cruzeiro and cruzeiro real. Sometimes they didn't make new bank notes, just stamped "novo" on the

Sidenote: As RioBob might remember, one of the best exchange rates in Rio at that time you got at Help (where you bought tickets).

Brazil was really cheap at that time. A different Brazil. No silicone, much less fat people and hairy pussies.

Just some nostalgia from 1993.

I stumbled upon this old menu from LE Maxims's Disco Bar. Prices in cruzeiros. The club was located on the top floor of Rio Sul, 44: th floor. A very fancy club with great view, it's own heliport and very beautiful girls going there. Many international stars used to visit Maxim's.

This is pretty cool, I remember people talking about a club over there and that the girls are hot, but I've never been. It reminds me of Regines which had clubs in Paris and New York, they also had one in the basement of the Meridian hotel. The door was on the side in the back. It was a private club, you had to be a member and have a card, I always got in. At the time there were several private clubs in Rio, I guess to keep out the riff raff, luckily Help wasn't private and had a 25 year run with all the riff raff you could find.

Portuguese sex 101 = Greluda.

A greluda is a big clit.

Keeping the pussy happy opens up the little hole, the borracha, the ass, the culita, the cuzinha, haha.

Callipygian!
