Before or right after dinner in Sarau at Praça da Matriz

Late in Paraty 33 on Rua Maria Jacome de Mello 357

To make a caipirinha in Paraty forget about the beach kiosks. They are far from the pousadas, the beach is not worth anything and at night it is likely that they are all closed. The best is the town square, the Praça da Matriz. The good thing is that the competition between the different terraces has made most the price down from 10 or 12 R $ per caipirinha to 7. The downside is that they also compete to see who gets the highest live music. The best caipirinha Sarau we take in, where there is usually a bit more lively but basically any of the bars is correct. Also, if there is any game that hurts fúbtol the most likely to miss here is that you put it!

If it’s raining or starts to cool and prefer meteros within a facility, it is more enjoyable Paraty 33 although there are caipirinhas market price: 12 R $. If you have wanted and money (R $ 18), you can try the Paraty 33, made with cachaça, mango, passion fruit and a few other things.

Also, if you are lucky, in the Armazem, Rua do Comerco linking the main street, Rua da Lapa with Praça da Matriz, more than one night a week playing samba. The caipirinha will ye also more expensive than in the square but worth it. That said, if you do not see that there is a band playing, the better the Sarau or Paraty 33.

Casarao Rua da Ilha in Avenida da Praia with Queiroz
Meia peixe frito 19.90 R$ (8 €)
Meia batata frita 11.90 R$ (5 €)
Cerveja garrafa 7 R$ (3 €)

The most homely restaurant in Ilha Grande is the Casarao da Ilha. As in all villages, everytime you see people eating. Or drinking. The speed is not the main value, so if you go hungry best you leave it for another day. So if you stay, do not compliquéis life with no moqueca. Here Take the fried fish (fry it in large pieces and with the same skin) with chips and chuparos fingers.

It is a covered terrace for rainy (usually do in the evening depending on the season), overlooking the central piazza Abraão Village and harbor, but with so many people going forward will cost see the sea.

Acarajé da Claudia, 5 km from the beach

As for taking acarajés, on the beach, between the pools of Lord and Potato People

Mini vatapá acarajé with sauces, caruru, camarao and pepper 10 R $ (10 units)
Acarajé with prawns 6 R $ (without prawns 5 R $)

Not the best cook in the world, but if one is already lying on a beach with coconut trees that look like the photos of Paradise, also need to have a Michelin star dining. On the way to the Pope People swimming in the 5km (a km from the village which is in the 4km-that no one asked why not start at zero because they go unanswered … -), there is the best piece beach to stay for a while rest when you return ride rigor (in Brazil planner will recommend you get to km 8). Right there you have a few places to eat and drink vendors and Claudia is the cleanest of all.

Main course: acarajé with the sauce you want. A kind of dough for dipping in salsa refried and take it to the belly. Although the mini acarajé are 10 units, as always in Brazil, you can order a half portion and do not say no. So for just 5 R $ will taste all the sauces, but it is more likely that acabéis always to vatapá wetting, which is a favorite worldwide.

At night Lençóis is more than pleasant. The only bad thing is the uncomfortable floor to walk, especially if your feet hurt from the walk of the day and you have used the flip flops … Most restaurants are very good looking, all with terrace on duty. In another post you can recommend the pair but if you are more days here you have some more:

Grisante restaurant in Praça Horácio Matos at the beginning of Av. Rui Barbosa
In case you want to try typical food here, it is best Grisante restaurant, right next to the pizzeria Natora, although with far less environmental

Rodoviaria bar in Lençóis (bus station) on Avenida Senhor dos Passos
If you want the coldest beer around Brazil, here it is. With its self-service fridge, Schin beer 24 hours a liter just R $ 3.99.

Sampling of caipirinhas

Brasil restaurantes 017 bisYou can not leave Rio de Janeiro without do the “botecos” route in Leblon. Between a bar and a restaurant, the botecos or botequims are traditional bars with terrace most of them and most of tapas dishes but are not as abundant as those of a normal restaurant. Here you have two options: either you follow the path that we are going to propose and going testing or you choose one of them and pass the evening there. Our recommendation: if it is a weekend or holiday, will all crowded so you better get in line at one of them and once you enjoy it you are sitting quietly. In that case, the two best are the super-classic Jobi or relatively new but already famous Chico and Warden.

If you do the route can start by Jobi, go through the Belmonte (it’s a chain but it is always crowded), outisde to Bracarense (by the way if you go by the Rua Umberto and other boteco encontraéis you thirst for a crash) and after somewhat to back and up to get to Chico and Warden. When acabéis, if you still feel like you are either close have Cachaça Academy where you can take the “sampling of caipirinhas”.Just to have a little bit of charm would be a great site! In any case, a capirinha is a caipirinha!

Kaze Sushi Bar

The first Japanese of Jericoacoara. Good and nice. The terrace on the first floor is very quiet, right next to one of the most beautiful Jeri pousadas.

You’ll find it at Rua do Forro almost reaching the praia right. It’s a bit pricey, even by the standards of Jericoacoara, but the site is worth and sushi holds.

Macaroni fried with vegetables and prawns 45 R $ (18 €)
Green Curry with squid 38 R $ (16 €)

If we rely on the collective intelligence of the best restaurant Advisor dry Paraty would Voila Bistro and, taking into account the value, the Thai Paraty. Eat eat very well and, in addition, the site is very tastefully decordado. From where you enter the hallway, to the bottom terrace, past the tables and dishes each as the mother who brought the world.

If I have to recommend a restaurant in Paraty would put forward the Divine point, mostly because the letter gives a little more options and if something does not crave too much Thai flavor blends Paraty not be the best choice. But if you fancy a Thai touch, not what you think. Here eat first.

In contrast with the rest Brazilian coastal towns, in Villa de abraao there is a stretch of beach restaurants for dinner in the evening overlooking the sea, with a candle to decorate the table. The pity is that there are a lot of mosquitoes … so those allergic to stings, do you see the picture and then you are going to dinner for the two streets that get into town.

Those who, even with help from Relec, aguantéis to mosquitoes can choose the Lua & Mar. It is the farthest of all, not much but at night and in the dark for more than one beach too lazy to get there. Only worth doing on Saturday to make BBQ on the sand. Both eat, whether you pay.

And if you end up going to a restaurant for those inside, at the end you can always return to the beach to assail a coffee or hot chocolate in the basket of “Café da Praia”, for only 3-6 R $, we find in the same walk.

Pizza alla Pazza in Alameda do Sol  (almost reaching the beach)

Beer Bottle 9 reales
Alho Pao traditional 8.90 reales
Individual Pizza from 18 to 24 reales

In Brazil we have said more than once that food is not your forte. So pizzerias (pizzarias as written in Portuguese) are like mushrooms everywhere, especially if it is a street, town or city tour. One next to the other, as if the had hooked melted mozzarella. Praia do Forte is no exception and pizzerias can count the pairs. Interestingly, as happens in most sea peoples Brazil, the streets and restaurants are built back to the beach. Understand me well, leaving aside the typical barracks kiosks or sea. This means that in old fishing village, do not expect the typical restaurant with a terrace overlooking the sea or on the promenade overlooking the sunset. No. All restaurants crammed into a street overlooking the terrace next door.

So find a good pizza place that is quiet above sea almost a miracle. In Praia do Forte this miracle is called Pizza alla Pazza. With three tables (yes, only three tables … well, I exaggerated, I think there are four) and nothing else, make a pizza, Brazilian style (type dough bread is not bread, neither fat nor thin, and the cheese was not noted for its quantity) but which does not leave any on the plate. And if you are lucky over the restaurant next door is still empty, the better, because you will be on the terrace above quieter around Praia do Forte.

Do not forget to try alho pao! Best traditional to hold the spicy because you have to have a good stomach for …

Cozinha Aberta on Avenida Rui Barbosa, in front of the Banco do Brasil

The Lençóis more elaborate restaurant, although that’s not saying much, just enter you will see that it is not like other people’s sites.

Fusion cuisine, will cost considerably more than what is usual for Brazil (the price of a dish is as rations for two at the other restaurants), but basically if you look at it with eyes and portfolio of Europe remains a cheap place. More if you think you can try dishes such as tortellini cocoa for 33 R $. But, having not as glamorous as the previous dish, so we recommend eating here is the “passanda” beef curry cooked in yoghurt and accompanied by couscous or meat ravioli du sol.

You have a terrace on the street with a couple of tables or sunroom quieter still. Lovely service.
