Originally, a small, open-sided bar called Bar Veloso, its name and anonymity vanished once two regulars, Tom Jobim and Vinícius Moraes, wrote the famous song here that changed history - "Garota de Ipanema" ("Girl from Ipanema"). Here is a video of the song that I found on youtube for your listening pleasure: Garota de Ipanema.Our first night in town, we met Paul Sneed, my Portuguese professor at KU, for dinner at Garota de Ipanema. The pictures of the restaurant at the bottom were taken by Megan a few days later during a tour of downtown.
