That's the name of the little bars that overflow the sidewalks of Rio with plastic tables and chairs, serving cold beer and something fried at almost any time of day. The pé sujo are a cross between a seedy bar and a neighborhood inn, where the grime is part of the charm. Countertops are rusty, prices are low, and shirts and shoes are optional.
