Sankofa African Bar & Restaurante

This is the only African spot in Salvador, Brasil. It is run by a gregarious, fun loving African who is also a great resource for the traveller in Salvador. The inside has a decidely African theme with African flags, and artworks on all the walls. There are two large maps of Africa that visitors can use to match the flags to. There was live music every day I went there with Reggae, Zouk, Semba (an anglola rythm) Samba and Salsa on offer. The DJ's spin on other nights of the week. My favorite night is on Friday when Magary plays. He played Semba, Samba and MPB. Great band and great energy. The bar is still rocking. It is a great place to meet other tourists and to really mingle with the locals

Highly recommended.
