For a unique dining experience, Alex Atala, Brazil’s most internationally renowned chef, demonstrates that, despite being involved in various projects, he always has something new to share. The experience here takes shape in the form of a single tasting menu that celebrates the restaurant’s 25th anniversary years in business (a vegetarian option is also available), taking guests by the hand on a journey across the flavours of the Amazon region, exploring river communities, almost-unknown ingredients (priprioca root, palmetto heart of palm, ants, açai, jambu, tucupi etc) sourced from small-scale local producers, as well as offering surprising textures and flavours that will delight the tastebuds – all creatively prepared and based, occasionally, around European-inspired combinations. In this modern, elegant space decorated with indigenous decorative objects, try dishes such as Feijão andu (a species of bean that grows on a bush) with mocotó (calf’s foot jelly) and beiju (a type of bread made with manioc flour, which represents an important part of the history of NE Brazil); and fish cooked in a banana leaf (based around techniques used by the Kayapó tribe).
