Yelp Review 2025 #182:
One of my favorite Brazilian foods is pao de queijo so, of course, I had to stop by at one of Casa Do Pao De Queijo's many locations all over Brazil. This one is conveniently located inside GRU airport.
My flight going to Uruguay was at 6:30am. This place was already open before 5am! Turns out they're open 24/7 which is very convenient when you're hungry and need a snack before/ after your flight.
Since my Portuguese is terrible, I saw the kiosks and immediately tried to use one of them. But for whatever reason, it won't take my credit card. Placing my order from the kiosk took a lot of scrolling only for my payment to be denied. So, I went to the counter to place my order with a human instead. I know basic Portuguese and was able to go place my order. Whew!
I got a table by the window - it's a quiet area with the exception of a group of American teenage boys spilling their drink on the floor trying to ask for napkins in English to employees that only speak Portuguese. I felt like I got better service for at least trying to speak Portuguese.
A few minutes later, they delivered my tray of food to me. They had the teenagers grab their food from the counter! LOL.
Pao de Queijo:
It was nice and hot with the cheese still glistening in the middle while the outer layer is crispy. You can get the traditional which is quite big or the mini ones. Savory and satisfying. 4/5
Brigadeiro:
Another Brazilian food I love. They're like freshly-made truffles made with condensed milk. Sweet, chocolatey, soft as it should be. It's bigger than typical brigadeiro. 4/5
Suco de Maracuja:
Passionfruit juice. You can tell it's not from real passionfruit because it's just as tart as the actual fruit. They gave me a few packets of sugar on my tray. I like it tart so I only used 1 packet of sugar. Ice-cold and refreshing. 4.5/5
They have cakes, empanadas, tarts, sandwiches, coffee, shakes, and cookies. Don't expect a full meal. They only serve snacks. read more
