Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking

If you're looking to savour pork like nowhere else on earth… this is the place! Here, chef Jefferson Rueda — who oversees the rearing of the pigs and the growing of most of the vegetables used in the restaurant — revives timeless flavours through technically sophisticated dishes. In an informal, relaxed, and rather lively space with an open kitchen, you'll find the option to order à la carte or to go for the tasting menu: D.O.C. (Denominação de Origem Caipira), which brings traditional rural Brazilian cooking into the contemporary age, weaving together classic dishes and more gastronomic small plates. Two highlights stand out: the house classic, Porco Sanzé, slow-roasted for six hours, and a more contemporary creation, the Temaki (Porcotuna) — a hand-rolled seaweed cone filled with raw pork, shiso, shari seasoned rice, and enoki mushrooms. Every meal here is a celebration of the Sunday family table!

"We control the entire food chain, from the farm to the consumer, and produce our own sustainable pork from Brazilian breeds (Sorocaba, Plau, Canastra, Caruncho and Pereira) which are allowed to roam freely. We also support small-scale producers and avoid waste."

— Jefferson Rueda
