A true surprise awaits inside this little house, which once belonged to a furniture shop. The space features a small terrace and a minimalist décor, enhanced by hanging potted plants and elegantly dressed tables. Under the direction of chef Carla Costa — who, after working in some of São Paulo's most prestigious restaurants, chose to open the doors to a more personal project — the kitchen delivers heartfelt cooking, crafted from quality ingredients with a touch of modernity. The pleasingly unfussy menu features a variety of classic Brazilian dishes, including prawn pastéis — crispy deep-fried pastry parcels filled with prawns, red pepper, and coriander — and excellent moquecas, the rich, fragrant Brazilian seafood stews. The restaurant opens for lunch only, and on Saturdays until 6pm.
