We found this restaurant through trip advisor. The food was really good. Ordering the 3 course meal…read moreis worthwhile. I had the vegetarian soup which was spinach and very tasty, although a bit starchy in consistency. The vegetarian entree on the menu was cheese ravioli with Gorgonzola cream sauce and toasted almonds. Absolutely yummy! An unusually large portion of ravioli for lunch. It will last another 1-2 meals. Also don't forget to order caipirinhas and their fresh home made bread. Dessert was vanilla gelato. Generally a pretty great find in centro. Tip: make sure to double check your order with them because only 1 person speaks a bit of English. When you ask questions about the other dishes for example, they sometimes assume that's the order.

Excellent bakery on Rita Ludolf in Leblon with delicious cookies, cakes and brigadeiros…read more Had the chocolate chip cookie which the staff heated up for me. Very good--probably the Levain Bakery of Rio, including NYC prices at more than $5 US per cookie which is why it missed a fifth star from me!!....the sliced cake with guava filling looks delicious and runs about $6 US. Cute layout and ambiance with outdoor seating available.

(fresh made cone filled with lquid chocolate and topped with gelato, can't even image) The cakes are beautiful and being made constantly. Indoor and outdoor seating gives you a break fromt he heat/sun or a chance to continue sunbathing. Momo's is very popular, the line was out the door but the wait is worth the treat. Even with the rush the staff was smiling and interacting. Other customers helped me (english only speaker) order and offer their suggestions for the best scoop. Great visit.
