"For nearly two decades, widely-respected chef Helena Rizzo has served up her stunning, Mediterranean-influenced take on Brazilian food in the upmarket Jardins neighborhood. The tasting menu will set you back around $120, but ordering à la carte will do just fine. Signature dishes include cashew ceviche and a rich squid fideuá, like a paella with tiny Spanish pasta instead of rice. Don’t miss the huge polvilho, a homemade version of one of Brazil’s favorite salty snacks made with fermented tapioca flour." - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
