Review of O Que Não TemThe name here comes from an old Brazilian shopkeeper's expression "So falta o que não tem" which translates as "We only lack what we don't have." That's little enough, as this largest of souvenir stores stocks nearly everything: woodcarvings, Bahian dolls, T-shirts, mugs, and Brazilian bikinis, as well as somewhat tacky original paintings and craftsmanlike semiprecious jewelry, all at the slightly inflated prices tourists expect. There's a smaller, sister store, Tem Mas Acabou, Rua Cosme Velho 535A (tel. 021/2285-5436) near the Corcovado tram station.

Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip. Related Features

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
