The 35 Best Restaurants in São Paulo, Brazil | Eater

"This casual and lively restaurant (”the House of the Hog”) commands the most coveted wait list for a table in the whole city, and is partly responsible for bringing the buzz back to downtown São Paulo since opening in 2016. Chefs Jefferson and Janaína Rueda serve a true feast of hog, including homemade sausages, pork jowl sushi, and pancetta crackling with spicy guava jam. The current tasting menu pays homage to the love of pork in various Latin American countries, from Argentinian choripán to Peruvian ceviche (prepared with pork ears and feet). But the main reason to line up for a table is the whole pigs (raised by the chefs on their farm) prepared in barbecue grills in the middle of the kitchen, which produces soft and tender meat with crunchy, delicious rinds." - Rafael Tonon
