Upon our arrival in São Paulo, the first things on the list were to find a supermarket and a pet…read morestore (ideally both within walking distance from our Jardins Paulista apartment). Our host suggested Mercearia do Animal - the neighborhood pet shop he used to frequent when he had a dog. Located just a 10 minute walk from our place, we found Mercearia do Animal to be a petite but well-stocked shop carrying items for dogs, cats, and even birds and fish. While I didn't find an spacious and extensive supply of dog food options, we did find Royal Canin and Hills Science Diet. Among dog food, we also picked up a new dog bed (also, not a ton of options, but they do carry a few different kinds), a set of bowls and a few doggy bones. This store also has a pharmacy section behind the counter where you can find Frontline and a medley of other items for you animal's health. The best part was after paying, the really sweet guy helping us carried everything home for us. He joined us while we walked back and carried the 15-lbs food bag along with the other items we picked up for Hank. Super awesome customer service and a perfect little store that carries all the essentials. Tip: they also have a dog bathing room where you can drop off your pup and they'll give him/her back smelling like new!

The eggs that they call mexido are delicately scrambled with cream cheese and ohhhh so delicious. I had a cheese cake which was a good finish. They also do pão na chapa with ciabatta bread versus the usual French bread found in São Paulo. This place should be on your list for breakfast for sure!!!!! I returned to SP in April 2018 and sure enough I was back at Ste Pão. I love this place!

Serving upscale Jardim Paulista since 2013, Santo Pão (Portuguese for Holy Bread) takes a French…read moreapproach to baking and Café-style dining without abandoning Brazilian ingredients and ideas. A welcoming and open space at Rua Padre João Manuel 968, capacity for around forty diners divided between indoor and outdoor seating including comfy chairs, it is immediately on entry that guests will notice cases filled with Cakes and Pastries, the menu spelling out choices from Santo Pão's kitchen adding to an already tough decision with everything from Soups and Sandwiches to housemade Pasta. Open from 08h00 until 22h00 Monday through Saturday, doors closing an hour earlier Sunday, it was after minutes of indecision that Cold Brew was selected to pair with savories, the former rare in Brazil but in this case excellent while both Brazilian Cheese Bread and crispy Tapioca folded around creamy Eggs and Herbs were also well made at a fair price. Slowly enjoying the Eggs while browsing complimentary WiFi, and never rushed by English-fluent staff despite a crowd, it was after enjoying a small Cookie provided with the Coffee that sweets were ordered, the "Croissant with Hazelnut Cream" in reality a masterpiece of lamination ladled with warm Nutella while Santo Pão's signature Banana Cake lived up to its billing with soft layers divided by housemade Dulce de Leche.
