A cool, elegant yet rustic space located in the gastronimical zone of Arenas of Jose Ignacio, Punta del Este, Uruguay. Sarava is situated in the sand dunes and forest a few metres from Laguna Escondida, the menu has an exquisite combination of Italian, French and Basque cuisine. Bilingual staff will also be serving a selection of some of the best wines South America has to offer.
Great care has been taken with the lighting at Sarava to provide a soft cool ambience, and with both local and international DJs playing a mix of downtempo, chillout and deep house throughout the night. After dinner you can enjoy an evening under the stars next to the fire in the Bar Garden. This year will be the third season and there have been many improvements to the ambience, garden and menu. If you are looking for a night out in Jose Ignacio, Sarava Resto Bar and Garden is the place to be and to be seen.
A nice mix of European and Latin clientele frequent the restaurant, and the events and parties that are held during the summer are not to be missed under any circumstances.

Hit by bit, cut awav the out-side edge ol the soap until you reach the lines. When you carve, hold the knife edge away from your body. Don’t try to cut away big chunks, just cut a little at a time.
Round out the top of the turtle’s back with the knife. With a pointed stick vou can make dents for the turtle’s eyes and mark lines on its shell.
When you finish carving, smooth the sides by wetting the snap and rubbing it with your fingers.
Paint the turtle with tempera.
You can carve many other animals out of soap. Remember it is easier to carve the animals if vou first draw a picture on the soap.
