Rua Visconde de Pirajá 511, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 22410-003
There are quite a few Internet cafes in Ipanema, but it's not easy to think of anywhere that serves food quite as delicious as the sandwiches and snacks on offer at Geographic Café. The gruyere cheese baguette is a good value, and, while the version with salmon, cream cheese and nuts is pricier, its absolutely delicious. If you need a little pick-me-up while surfing the net, try one of the specialty coffees flavored with chocolate, mint, or almond liquor. Still hungry? The dainty slices of chocolate gateaux should kill off the last of your hunger pangs. Internet access is fast but a little pricey - BRL5 for 15 minutes.
