Local before arrival
If you come here, you have to try the house specialty: bolinhos de feijoada (a type of bean-based fritter), served alongside crispy bacon and filleted oranges. This, with a caipirinha – divine! There’s also an array of ice-cold beer and over 250 additional specialties on the menu, like pastéis de banana da terra (plantain patties) or almofadinhas de tapioca (tapioca turnovers). On a sunny day, be sure to pay a visit to the garden, where you’ll feel the true vibes of the city.
