I love Forquilha…read more Tonight was my first night out of 6 months in Brasil. When my husband came home from work, he listed out the regular places that we usually go when we visit Brasil. Last minute, we decided to try something new - Forquilha. I didn't know what to expect, and I'll admit it, I was a little grumpy when we first arrived. However, we were warmly greeted and were seated instantly. I saw a giant wood oven in the corner, and a colorful bar where bartenders expertly made drinks. We ordered up a Hendricks martini and a Moscow Mule. My mood instantly was on an upswing when our cocktails came. My Moscow Mule had some sort of whipped foam on top which I've never seen before. The cocktail was interesting and delicious, and I gladly ordered more throughout the evening. My husbands martini was on point - in fact, it officially ruined every other martini I've ever had, it was that smooth. For an appetizer, we ordered a flat bread stuffed with cheese and prosciutto on top. On account of my not eating meat, they kindly put the prosciutto on the side for my husband to have on his pieces only. Very thoughtful. It was delicious and eaten instantly. For entrees, we ordered the bacalhau rice and a pizza with pumpkin. While both were delicious, the bacalhau rice was especially phenomenal. I had several bites of my husbands plate and secretly wished that I had ordered it. We unfortunately did not partake in dessert, but after scouring Instagram later in the evening, I really wish I went with that Nutella tiramisu! Next time. This restaurant was a great find - friendly service, fantastic drinks and cuisine, and did I mention the music? I just about lost my mind when Breakbot came on! I loved everything about this spot, and I can't wait to go back.

They also have a few kinds of organic bread to take home with you, along with various other products you typically see in natural food shops.

We started with a round of caipirinhas which were really great and then went on to the food. The menu was very large which I don't particularly like (simply to many choices and give us what you do best) but we managed to find some options that we enjoyed without to much food envy as dishes passed us by. For appetizer we had the wagyu carpaccio which was literally melting in our mouths. It was a wondrous start. For the main I had the duck ragù with mushrooms and my wife had the roasted lamb shoulder. Both dishes were truly extraordinary! Simply one of the best food experiences I have had in a while and if you get a chance to eat at Due Cuochi please do go! Enjoy :)

If it were not for the serendipitous meeting my wife had in the US with one of the owners of this…read moreplace, we wouldn't have found it. It is reviewed in other places, and given my penchants for Yelp, I wouldn't have clued into this place, and this would have been most unfortunate. First, the culture around bread and certainly food in São Paulo is serious, and there is a "padaria" on many corners, and it is likely you are not staying anywhere near this place. This said, I will tell you now it was worth the Über we took there, and Über did find the place by name quickly which was nice, rather than having to place the address in manually. Signage is clearly marked, and similar to the color seen on the website, which is underwhelming as far as websites go. Being on the corner, it was easy to navigate a drop off and pick up safely. I am guessing you are not brave (read "louco") enough to rent a car and drive in São Paulo, although there may be parking at times within walking distance along the street if you did. Unlike many places in São Paulo, this place was designed with several small seating areas and thankfully this was one place where one could actually hear a conversation and feel relaxed rather than the normal hustle and bustle of restaurants here. You would think that because we showed up later in the day (around 3 pm) that the bread would have been baked earlier in the day, but this place makes small batches all day, and our bread to go once we were done was fresh from the oven. My wife Andréa had a "suco de tangerina" (freshly squeezed tangerine juice) and I had my afternoon "cafezinho" (a double espresso) to go with our charcuterie board of salumi, local cheese, and a country loaf with black sesame and oats and a purple sweet potato loaf, accompanied by lovely balls of cultured butter and a passion fruit marmalade. To top things off, I had been looking for a fair trade whole bean Brazilian coffee to take back home, and there it was sitting on the shelf for sale at a reasonable price. https://www.vitalecafe.com.br/. The service was prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable and clearly showed both a pride in their product and a confidence in their excellence. There is no question it will be a future Über ride with others there in the future.
