Two Stars: Excellent cooking

Dining at this restaurant with just 10 seats is like attending a show, but with the best seats in the house! Although it starts out quietly, the kitchen comes to life as the chefs embark on the task in hand, with interesting interaction between chef Rafa Costa e Silva and his guests. The surprise tasting menu begins with a variety of appetisers in which vegetables take centre stage – displayed on a wooden tray illuminated by a spotlight on the counter – and served in different forms and textures. These are organically grown in line with the seasons and are mainly sourced from the chef’s gardens in Itanhangá and Vale das Videiras. A wine-pairing option, chosen by the experienced Maíra Freire, is also an option. “Lasai” translates as “tranquil” in Basque – the restaurant takes its name from the time the chef spent refining his skills in the award-winning Mugaritz (in Errentería, in Spain’s Basque country). You’ll need to book ahead and be punctual, as the experience starts at the same time for every guest.
