good vibes, good food and good music. Want something else?

Discover the most bohemian region of Porto Alegre! The old industrial area of the city, the 4th District, is currently where bars and craft breweries are concentrated. Composed of four neighborhoods, there you will find good restaurants for dinner, places to eat and drink well, and bars and nightclubs to extend the night. It’s an area close to center city, so if you’re willing to explore other parts of the city to enjoy a good vibe at night, the 4th District can be a good option for you. We’ve listed some places you need to check out there.

There, you’ll find options for every taste: hamburgers, snacks, Asian cuisine, gelateria, and much more – and the best part, everyone can choose what they want and everyone can eat together. The cultural schedule at Mercado Paralelo is also very intense. So, it’s worth checking the schedule on instagram because there’s a DJ and pocket shows animating the night.

Know the famous «xis», the typical delicacy of Gaúcho cuisine, at Julio Paris

Bread, mayonnaise, peas, lettuce, tomato, corn, and a protein as your wish. That’s the basic recipe for a Gaúcho «xis». Of course, there are hundreds of variations of this dish, like the one you can taste at Julio Paris, which has nothing French on the menu. The xis covered with cheese has been served for over 20 years and is a success. Additionally, the restaurant serves hot dogs and burgers, all, of course, with lots of cheese on top. In other words, it is the ideal option for those who want to indulge in a truly delicious snack. The place is simple but really worth it!

An italian experience at Aora Cucina

The 4th District region concentrates excellent restaurants, such as Aora Cucina. The restaurant, which is located in an old mansion from the 1940s, preserves details of the architecture of the time. You can see the dishes being produced in the open kitchen and the house’s menu includes classics from Italian cuisine. The restaurant doesn’t have many tables available, so it’s very important that you make a reservation before going. Tip: try the shrimp risotto, made with turmeric and slivers of apricot. It will be love at first bite.
