It is a small family run restaurant, and very authentic Brazilian food from Porto Alegre. I highly recommend giving this place a try, make a reservation though as it is not big and it has quite a following.

Maria Bonita is a Juice stand in Ruzafa…read more There are very subtle ways you can tell that this is a Brazilian and not a Valencian establishment. Subtle Hint One That This Place is Brazilian: Maria Bonita was the girl friend of Lampiao, the most famed cangaco style bandit of the Brazilian sertao. Lampiao is the stuff of legend and cursing. He is A Robin Hood for social justice. He is a murderer and a rapist who will terrorize your daughter and your wife. He is a a poet driven to the wilderness by his sympathy for the suffering of the poor. He is the darkest of all religious reprobates who lett the Devil eat his soul out of his a**. Maria Bonita who willingly made love to this darkest of devils, Is either a true feminist hero born a century before her time or the lowest of the lowest of the lowest of the whores. Maria Bonita drank a lot of fruit juices in the oases of the sertao. So you name the juice stand after her. Subtle Hint Two That This Place Is Brazilian: The fruit juices are made from Brazilian pulp. They feature Brazilian flavors such as caju or maracuja. They allow you to make the juices with milk - a standard Brazilian trick for juice drinks. Subtle Hint Three That This Place is Brazilian: There are great big Brazilian flags on all the store windows. That particular hint might not be so subtle. Subtle Hint Four That this Place is Brazilian: here is a great big sign on one window announcing that they sell Brazilian feijoada on Sundays. Nothing is more Brazilian than feijoada - a Brazilian black bean stew that contains every part of the pig. Brazilians serve it for Sunday lunch. It is one the most filling meal any human being can possibly eat for Sunday lunch. * * * How does Maria Bonita rate as as Brazilian fruit stand? It is pretty darn good. Most Brazilian stands use frozen pulp packages as the basis for their juice drinks. Brazilian frozen fruit pulp packages are first rate. They make some of the loveliest juice drinks in the world. Making them with milk makes then that much more special. (Some very fancy places let you make them with cream.) Never turn down a brazilian juice drink with milk - unless you are getting a brazilian juice drink with cream. Brazilian juice drinks with milk turn the hottest day of summer into a mild 21 degrees Celsius. You will cool down. Your clothes will cool down. Your emotions will cool down. The heat will give you all your energy back since you are now no longer hot. And Brazilian fruit juices taste good. Marita Bonita and her men may have been riding into town to burn down the commandante's house and pull the hair off the head of the commandante's wife. But after juice drinks, we will all be singing silly songs together. Maria and the commandante's wife will be comparing tips about hair styles. So have a juice drink. And if you were to also have a Brazilian snack ... Well how bad would that be in the larger scheme of life?
