Dramatically situated by the beach, adjacent to the Sugar Loaf cable car station, this restaurant turns into a weekend after-dinner lounge and dance club where a posh crowd of 30-something Brazilians do what they do best: look good.
Not many small companies right now and big companies that might not care too much about conferences like MacWorld or even the Game Developer Conference or CES are loathe to send employees who will probably just get a nice steak dinner and lounge around watching pay-per-view instead of attending workshops.
Camels lope on guided tours around the encampment and visitors can enjoy a standard barbeque buffet dinner while lounging on cushions in carpeted tents.
Pre-dinner drinks, lounging on lime-coloured leather in the lobby.
Accommodation is in dorms or twins, there's a cafe for breakfast and dinner, a communal lounge area, a movie and media centre and free access to the club, Le Paradis, for all guests.
After dinner, guests can lounge on the outdoor deck and look at the stars or relax in the outdoor hot tub while music is piped in on the outdoor speakers.
I would recommend dinner in the lounge (not as expensive as in the main dining room, and with a warmer, more comfortable feel).
Newspaper and magazine adverts from the early 1950s show gentlemen in dinner jackets and lounge suits raising glasses of Jack under the strap-line, "Man to man, the good word gets around".

A dinner-only Lansky Lounge and Grill offers a pricier menu with the meaty likes of New York sirloin and chateaubriand.
