A cross between craft shop and farmhouse kitchen, Lá da Venda is a lovingly-curated treasure trove where hams and cheeses hang from the ceiling alongside baskets, hammocks and multi-coloured crochet rugs, while tea towels, knitted dolls, wooden toys and clay pots cram the shelves. Pop by for coffee and one of chef Heloisa Bacellar's award-winning pães de queijo. Or for something more substantial, cop a spot outside or in the interior courtyard and linger over the daily-changing lunch menu.

The list of…read morepossible ingredients is inspiring and you can pick and choose to make your own blend, or go with one of their tried and true recommendations. Sandwiches and salads operate much the same way (pick and choose your ingredients), but sadly the execution (even if you go with one of their recommended choices) is pretty bland. My salad came with sliced deli meat and the dressing tasted like it came from a bottle (which is obviously did). Stick to the juices if you go here.

Frutaria Paulista is a nice little spot to enjoy a healthy snack, with a decent range of juices,…read moresmoothies, açaí, and sandwiches (although they do have a few junk food options, like candy bars). Parking doesn't seem to be a problem, and it's near the corner of Paulista and Consolação, for those who are on foot in the area. It offers a view with plenty of greenery by São Paulo standards, and you can feel free linger after you finish your juice. One important thing to keep in mind is that they only take cash or debit cards - no checks or credit cards. Also, during the winter, their hours are 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.

I went to Dona Vitamina to try to cram in some healthy food after eating a few too many pão de…read morequeijos and I wasn't disappointed! The açaí smoothie came out first and was perfectly thick and sweetened just enough - it was delicious. The mushroom wrap was great as well. I'm not a big bread eater (for sandwiches) so I likely would have asked for it without a wrap had I thought ahead. However, the spinach wrap was good and a great seasoning to it. This place is a bit more on the pricey side (in line with other restaurants in the area) - my meal was about $13 USD which is a little less than what I would have paid for a comparable meal in the US. If you're not on a strict budget then I'd recommend a detox meal here!

Came to Dona Vitamina to check it out and it's awesome! Open decor, a garden in the back of the room, vertical garden, open kitchen, smiling service staff, magazine rack, truly felt like I was having breakfast somewhere around Rodrigo de Freitas Lake in Rio. Menu has a wide range from vitaminas (smoothies), wraps, sandwiches, pão de queijo, bread, cakes, the list goes on. Though it's a healthy place, so no flaky croissants stuffed with ham and cheese, chocolate, etc. Since I had a bikram class to attend, I picked a açaí bowl which probably could feed three people easily, sliced banana e a side of granola along. Ommmm...

Here is the breakdown: FOOD Love their açaí bowls and the add-on option to different fruits and condiments-- you customize to your taste buds and I definitely enjoy that. SERVICE Biggest opportunity here. I understand it is usually busy however, no need to be rude. The service is very slow and the waiters it is basically just trying to get through all the orders. No special attention, very slow service and no friendly customer service. DECOR/ AMBIANCE Very casual environment and enjoy the open space to it. OVERALL I tend to go here more for the convenience of location. That's pretty much it. Service needs some work and there isn't that wow factor of you must go because the açaí bowls are amazing. They are good but not excepcional.
