Phenomenal Indian food and market. The tandoori chicken dinner plate was especially good, but I’m coming back soon to try everything else!
Gorgeous old winery owned by Francis Ford Coppola that was purchased with his profits from The Godfather. Don’t miss the museum upstairs and be sure to grab a coffee before you go!
Everything. The sandwiches, the groceries, the people - it’s all good. Take a number, wait your turn, and relish in one of the last bastions of this great institution.
Great coffee and friendly service with killer pastries and snacks in a cool location. Recommended!
Thoughtfully made clothes that look great and fit great — designed by good people in the Bay Area. 👌
Solid yakitori joint. Order everything. We loved the scallops appetizer and all of the skewers. Super friendly service.
Really loved our lunch at this place. The caipirinha’s were strong, the staff was friendly (and spoke English!) and the feijoada was rich and delicious. Don’t miss the appetizer sampler.
Get at least two of those little pockets of deliciousness — and don’t miss the house made hot sauce!
If you’re looking for a place to relax, be it on a schooner, in a hammock, or poolside — I can assure you this is it.
Perfect little serene getaway up in the mountains. They grow all their own food and make their own caçhaca. We loved riding horses to the hilltop, swimming in the lake, and sitting by the fire pit.
Solid Thai food in Paraty. Service can be a little slow, but we really enjoyed the curries and the papaya salad. 🌶
Stunning hotel tucked in behind an unassuming entryway. Loved our well-appointed rooms, the great breakfast spread, and the perfectly serene reading room. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Phenomenal botanical garden. Don’t miss the orchid and bromeliad houses, and be on the lookout for tiny monkeys in the trees! 🐒 🐒 🐒
Hike up to the first peak and then take the cable car back down after sunset. Fair warning that the lines can be long, so get started early!
Great food with an incredible view overlooking Rio. Be sure to make a reservation if you want an unobstructed view.
