There are quite a few places in Bahia where you can go out on the town and have a meal. There are numerous Taco Stands along with several restaurants.  At the taco stands you should keep in mind that they do not have the funds to purchase the very expensive bar permits.  So they are not allowed to serve you beer or other alcoholic beverages.  Ask politely  if you may bring your own refreshements to the table and make sure it's in styrofoam cups or other similar containers.  Play it cool and keep it low key so as not to get them in to any trouble.

The service may be somewhat slower than you are used to North of the border, but remember here they prepare your meal fresh when you order it.  There are no trucks pulling up to the rear of the restaurants dropping off pre-made salsas, soups etc.   Also our location here in Bahia is, "So close, but so far away..."; this makes obtaining fresh veggies, salad and other like ingredients costly and difficult to come by. The establishments here do the best they can with what is available.  As Tomas used to say, "When you travel, leave your head at home."  

Be willing to adapt to the local style.
