"A Casa do Porco is arguably Brazil’s most famous restaurant and a regular on worldwide best-of lists, but it's surprisingly down to earth. The tasting menu costs around $40, there’s no dress code, and you don’t always need a reservation to get a table. As you’d expect, the menu is heavy on pork—Brazilian varieties that are raised on the owners' farm outside the city. You can watch whole hogs cooking in the open kitchen, and dinner usually ends with a roast pig blowout. The menu changes seasonally, but classics include pork cheek sushi and osso bucco with onion soup. Don’t need a full meal? Grab a sandwich from a small takeaway hatch. We like the roast pork with mustard-mayo, pickled red onion, and guacamole." - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
