Santo Grão, coffee and much more



Located just across the street from the oh-so-chic Hotel Emiliano, Santo Grão is the perfect spot for a cup of coffee, a sandwich, and a celebrity sighting (just yesterday there was an excited group of girls seated next to me who were there to try and catch a glimpse of Kiefer Sutherland who is in town to film a car commercial and is staying at the Emiliano).  While they are most ...

Sukiyaki



O sukiyaki surgiu no Japão por volta de 1860, quando o imperador experimentou a carne bovina e gostou. Até então, o consumo de carne era proibido por causa dos costumes budistas. Logo os súditos do império começaram a difundir esse hábito como sinônimo de modernidade.

A cozy coffee shop in São Paulo - Suplicy



Located in Alameda Lorena, this coffee shop has a modern feel to it, with great decour, a charming environment, and most importantly... tasty coffee and other delicious edible goodies. One of their main things is the special coffee blends. They have a great selection of coffee beans to choose from. Another perk is the free wi-fi! Last time I was there though, I experienced ...

The bar is small and simple, but homely and welcoming. With wooden tables ...

Vegetarian Sao Paulo



Being a vegetarian in Brazil puts you in the minority.  But, just because your carnivorous friends have crossed the pearly gates into meat eating heaven doesn't mean that you can't have a little fun too.  Here are three of my favorite places to go in Sao Paulo and not eat meat:

Banana Verde- Rua Harmonia, 278, Villa Madelena
Open for lunch daily and dinner Mon-Fri.
The only strictly vegetarian of the three, this charming restaurant is ...

Daslu, excess in excess



If you like designer clothes, sipping champagne, or simply seeing how the well-heeled spend an afternoon, take a trip to Daslu, Sao Paulo's super-posh shopping mall.  Unless you have brought your car or helicopter with you, make sure that you take a taxi, as the only way to access the store is by driving or flying in.  Once inside you will find four floors filled with designer clothes, shoes, toys, ...

São Paulo's Best Sea Food Restaurant



Everybody knows that São Paulo, among many other qualities, has an amazing cuisine available to its visitors and inhabitants. We have restaurants that cover nearly every ethnicity and culture, as well as various other types of non-cultural eateries – vegan, vegetarian, sea food, healthy food, fast food, etc.

One of my personal favorites is a nice little restaurant called Salmon & Co. As far as fish goes, that is my ...
