Sao Paulo Reports

[QUOTE=FlowState985;2871585]You can decline fingerprint. They said they want to do it so it's faster to check people in, but you just tell them you don't want to do it and show them your ID.[/QUOTE]I discussed the fingerprint issue with the manager when I first arrived at Cafe Photo back in June 2023 and I offered him my ID, but he said the fingerprint method was faster and better for subsequent visits and he insisted on my fingerprint for this visit. I thought he was talking total bull crap at the time, so it would not surprise me if Cafe Photo has dropped their very dumb entry requirement. I am sure it has hurt business. Can anyone confirm FlowStates reported change in Cafe Photo's entry requirement?

[QUOTE=RioFan1;2871600]Since first week of November (for formula 1), Cafe Photo has the rooms available inside. When you walk from the corridor to enter you have club reception on the left (as before) and hotel reception on the right. The cost for room fee is 350 reais x hour (more than in Scandallo, now fixed at 300 reais x h). The rooms are a bit smaller than Scandallo room but still very confortable (TV screen were still missing but guess will be installed soon in each room).

Now if you want to take out the girl is still an option but you have to pay the exit fee (about 350 reais) which was not due before because of room's absence.

Girls were about 80+ and on average they start from 1,5 k reais and down to 1 k after negotiation.

Bahamas is far behind in term of number of girls, luxury, and beautiness. Of course is cheaper.[/QUOTE]A very interesting update, Rio. The problem with Cafe Photo's new business strategy of charging customers more (1. The new room or exit fee 300 and 2. The latest avg price for boom boom 1000 although the 200 increase since I was there might be due to F1 _ I don't know) is that it makes a visit to Cafe Photo more expensive than say a visit to Scandallo limiting one's selection to only Scandallo girls of similar quality to the girls at Cafe Photo ie well dressed, tier 2 type girls. So, in effect for similar quality, Cafe Photo is pricing their product and services above those at Scandallo. Good luck with that.

But maybe the management knows something not mentioned so far in the discussion. Location, Location, Location. A lot of businessmen stay in those 4* & 5* hotels near or on Av. Das Naes Unidas in Brooklin. An Uber from the Hilton to Cafe Photo takes 10 to 15 minutes at 9 pm whereas an Uber from the Hilton to Scandallo usually takes 30 to 40 minutes. I would do the Scandallo trek 29 out 30 times, but I am sure there are businessmen staying around Av. Das Naes Unidas who are tired, bored, and don't want to take a long taxi ride just to get a little something before going to sleep.

[QUOTE=RioFan1;2871600]Bahamas is far behind in term of number of girls, luxury, and beautiness. Of course is cheaper.[/QUOTE]I was surprised to hear someone put Bahamas Club on par with Cafe Photo. In my opinion Scandallo is in a league of its own followed by Cafe Photo and Bomboa. Then Connection Nightclub next, followed by Bahamas Club and Casaroa both being on the same level in terms of quality of girls, luxury, comfort, etc. Well Bahamas Club may be more comfortable than Casarao actually, but I didn't see any girls I liked at either establishment, whereas the others never failed in that regard.

I started going to Bahamas last year when one of my Scandallo girls texted me that she had just started to work at Bahamas and asked if I would come by to see her. This girl is a very tall 6 ft, slender blond, with a very pretty face, and she is simply fantastic in bed. I did not pay much attention to the other Bahamas girls when I would visit, but a few of them looked session worthy to me hence my opinion.

My favorite Boates are 1. Scandallo and 2. Bomboa. I have never been to Connection. I really should go! And I like Casarao, but usually I can't wait until midnight, so I end up going somewhere else earlier.

Hi Folks, now that everyone is talking about Cafe Photo from long time, we can show you how exactly looks like the way from Dorado Shopping area to Cafe Photo by Uber. A very short trip.

The thing is Cafe Photo has wealthy locals as clients, and as someone has just mention, Cafe Photo can be compared to Scandallo or Bomboa that are apples. But not to Casarao or Bahamas that are much more like potatoes.

If you hit the place after midnight you can be very disappointed 'cause you'll find an empty place. You'll find the talent in a very narrow early time frame. Mostly around 10 pm and 12 pm.

The uber driver was kind of surprised i was going to Cafe Photo ... very fun conversation at the end of the video. Send me a PM if you have questions.

Hello everyone, as I mentioned in my previous posts next week I will be venturing to SP finally and I have noticed and slight inconvenience with my airbnb. I was planning to visit Scandallo early to chill for a couple of hours with my buddy see the talent and then at around 11-12 pick our girls, invite them a couple of drinks and hopefully after a couple of hours of having a nice time getting to know each other, I manage to negotiate the girl for a "pernoite"/ overnight for would I hope be a reasonably price R1200-R1500 max.

Now the problems is that I just realize my airbnb doesn't allow visits if they are not registered before hand with the owner and I believe even requiring to paying a fee for the visit if they stay overnight. Obviously that is a big issue if a try to bring a random girl around 2 am. I don't believe I could be able to sneak a girl from the doorman and even worse at that hour and also I don't want to get in trouble with the management and get kick out or worse.

So what I was planning to do was to go to a lovel motel / hotel with the girl if they agree for a pernoite, spend the night with her and after having breakfast return to my airbnb. The idea would be that my buddy and I manage to get both of us a girl for a pernoite and both couples go to the same love motel just so we can stay close by and have each others back in case we need it.

Sorry for the long preview but what I would appreciate from you guys is a recommendation for a lovel motel that is not to expensive R100-200, good decente quality and in a safe neighborhood preferably close to Moema, Vila Olimpia or Itaim Bibi.

I decided to try to get a "pernoite"/ overnight deal as it seems to be the best bang for your buck that you can get as the girl will spend with you in worst case scenario 3-4 hours and up to 10-12 hours if there is chemistry and a good vibe acording to past reports I've read, for 30% or max 50% more than the 1 hour rate.

Once again appreciate the support.

But with their room, entry & exit prices and most importantly not so high talent numbers makes Scandallo a better place to visit.

I have visited Bahamas once, disappointed with quality & number of girls present. No plans to visit the place again. I prefer Casarao over Bahamas.

[QUOTE=AxelHeyst;2871555]But if you never met a particular girl before, and you do not know how well the two of you are going to relate, how do you know you want to go LT with her? I would rather stick around the club and have two sessions with 2 different girls.

That is of course a fair point. I guess I will just have to go by how I feel and how she is.

I always use CC's to pay the Boate tab and hotel charge and I usually bring 1000 to 1200 BR cash with me to Scandallo just in case I start flirting with a Tier 1 girl, ha ha, and decide she is the one. I usually bring 800 BR to Bomboa and only 600 BR to Casarao. But here is the beauty of the boate system: let's say I go to Scandallo some Thursday night around 9:30 pm with 1200 BR and a credit card in my wallet. My 1st session for 800 BR with a real nice girl next door type was very passionate so I invite the girl to dinner. After dinner we part company and I wander around and in a little while I spot a pretty spinner sitting all alone. I say Hi and yada yada yada we are having a good time near the back of the outdoor patio bar. I want her and she wants 800. I only have have 400 left. No problem. I charge 400 to the CC, but I make sure to do this as we are leaving. I will never pay a boate girl in advance.

P.S. Sundays and National holidays are no problem for me. I always set aside these slow nights for Valeria, my current favorite Brazilian girl and a few other top contenders.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the pointers. Moneywise it sounds like a reasonable approach and I will likely copy it.

Current list / plan:

Clinicas:

Tangara & Yankin.

Boate / Clubs:

1 x Scandallo, maybe Bamboa & Casaro.

Escorts & independents:

If time is short, I have found 2 or 3 who seem to be very much to my liking. Tempted but I'll see if it will haben.

Good luck with you first adventure in SP! Looking forward to reading your reports.

Once again appreciate the support.[/QUOTE]I suspect if you go have a talk with the doorman ahead of time, he would most likely allow you and your girl in. As long as you don't get reckless with it.

Just tell him you'd like to spend a night with a girl you really. He'll probably tell you it's fine before you complete your sentence.

You will have more fun with a nicer motel. I have not been to one for a while. I only remember Lush which I think is not far from Scandallo. If I had my buddy with me, I would look for one with connecting rooms, jacuzzi, pool or striper pole. I have never been to one in Sao Paulo that is less than 300. You do need to be careful with what the girl wants to order as the cost will add up quickly.

This is from the Cafe Photo opening date that I took a bunch of photos to share with others on WhatsApp. Similar layout to the old one but I like the old one better, it seemed more spacious.

Someone was asking Sunday options and obviously getting a girl from earlier in the week to go out is a great idea if you snag one. But don't forget Seeking Arrangements. It's of course best in countries that don't have amazing Boates etc. But can def work in Brasil as well. I had an AMAZING date on a Sunday in Rio. A true 9. 5 and a great 3 HR date for R400.

Haven't done SP but just browsed and plenty of hotties. Of course Seeking is a bit different than other approaches. But great fun if you like a real date. There's a whole thread on Seeking under General / dating services if you need any help navigating it.
