Description
Join a local guide on a gastronomic adventure in one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world (voted in Time Out London's ranking and in the hearts of Cariocas) known as Little Africa!
We'll start the tour at Praça Mauá and head towards Largo São Francisco da Prainha, also known as Little Africa, narrating some historical facts about a place of great importance in Rio de Janeiro.
We'll then head to a House of Culture and Restaurant, where we'll try the best acarajé in Rio de Janeiro! The house offers themed drinks with Afro-Brazilian spices that can be purchased separately.
All the dishes are themed and their story can be told by the chef for a better tasting, if you buy the full menu.
If you have any intolerances or are vegan/vegetarian, just let us know at the time of booking and we'll adapt the dish for you.
In the late afternoon, if you want to relax after lunch, enjoy the best of Brazilian and international music! The space also has a bookshop and a beauty salon.
If you want to extend the evening, we suggest the traditional Samba da Pedra do Sal, which is 1 minute from the restaurant, where we can show you the best kiosks!
