As expected, the flavor was average. I also tried the in-house mate, not quite the same flavor as mate Leao. With big but heavy plates, a paltry serving can easily run R$30. The best part of it was the dessert which was separate. The chocolate mil folhas was rich and tasty. The pastry itself was still quite crispy and fresh, so I can see how the pastries, desserts and bakery items are lauded.

I did try a lata of Rio cha verde with lychee (can of green tea with lychee) which was delicious. Next time I'll have to have breakfast as the other yelpers recommended.
