Love Story

São Paulo


Nick Cave was once a regular, celebrity chef Alex Atala oversees the menu; legendary Love Story has seen it all! It doesn't get going until 3am, and is the late-night stomping grounds of math rock maniacs, off-duty sex workers, edgier celebrities and deep-pocketed rich kids. Get in line and dance until breakfast.
