Art Déco - European Style

Art Déco is one of the most beautiful lounges I've ever met. Is just so magical and artistic! and wait to see the toilet, its papel is the finest thing my 3 letters (a-s-s) has sensed,haha. The handwashing sink has electronic sensors and everything  in the restroom smell good (well, I haven't investigated so deep, you can guess why). The barman and even the waiters are hot, I'm sorry I didn't see the waitress (I'm a girl you know) and to smoke you don't have to exit the place, they have a closed room very well and barroc style decorated where you can smoke and take your drink if you want. They also have big art pieces and black and white old movies on the walls. The drinks are delicious and considerable size. The only thing I don't like of this lounge is that is kind of hidden, the area is safe but you can't get to there easyly if you don't know Miraflores. The public is around 30's or more who look for a nice and elegant enviroment to talk.

The lounge is located in Calle Manuel Bonilla 227, Miraflores
At this date, their web site isn't still active but here you have the link:

Glow - New bar at Miraflores

The last bar I've recently met is called Glow which has an innovative and modern architecture, at first sight it promises you will have a great night!!!. The atmosphere is very friendly, the owner is 27 years old so I think his public is people in their 20's or early 30's. And I'm talking about nice people: professionals who live very close or in quiet places and of course who do speek english. I tell you this because sadly in Miraflores there are another places like the well known "Calle de las Pizzas" where no desirable people go. I've seen prostitutes (or girls dressed as pros in a better case) and bad-face people there, but also go medium-to-low-class and hard working people who doesn't want your money but maybe they don't speek english at all. So, I personally don't recommend it.

Continuing with the bar, Glow has a lounge style with tables who light different colors and change any time. The Pisco they use for their coctels is Biondi which is one of the best  (Pisco is a peruvian liquor). The local has a dance area with mirrors on the walls and the music is very cool like electronic, rock, etc. The time I went with my friends we promise to come back, so I'll try to make photos to show you Ok?.

If you want to go, the bar is located in Schell 411, Miraflores.

About This Blog

As I said before you're very welcome to my blog. I'm afraid I was not clear in my first post so I'm going to tell what this blog is about. From my experience as a young native peruvian born in Lima city I may recommend you places that rock!!... places to take a trip, a coffee, to dance, to drink, to walk, to eat, to shop, to sport... without any other interest that make you culture-aware so you can take full advantage the time you stay here.

I'm trying to add more tabs to my blog (I don't know how it works yet) in order to organize it better, meanwhile you read some posts.

Hugs!

Pd.-I'm not a good photographer, but I love this picture taken in Huaral ( in a place I'll tell you later)


Welcome to my Site!!

Hi everybody on earth!
I'm Ana and this is a new experience since it's my first blog written entirely in english. I have a blog of poems in spanish, of songs in italian, of food in spanish and now this master piece. I love to write, sometimes I get bored to follow a format so I just leave it for a while. However, I believe I've loads of experiences to share with you. Thus, this blog is specially dedicated for foreign people who want to come to Lima (Peru) or stay for a while before going to Cuzco. You can make the most with your free time at Lima!!!

So, I say goodbye...no without leaving 3 messages:

1. I hope you read my blog and make me know you're on it (comment!!)
2. Excuse my language mistakes =S
3. Don't be shy. Tell us about your anecdotes at Lima.
