Afternoon Tea in Pinheiros: São Paulo's Cozy Corner
🌟 Pinheiros keeps winning me over—beyond its famous flea market and Thai food, it's becoming my go-to for leisurely afternoon treats. 📍 Tea Time Hotspots: Cluster near Mintchi Croissant and Casa Mimosa - Mimosa Art House (just a 10-min stroll between them). 🍽️ Sweet Spots Worth the Calories 1️⃣ Mintchi Croissant The hype is real: Their pistachio croissant (R$32) cracks with buttery layers. Vibe: Tiny but mighty—locals swarm for takeaway. Damage: ~R$50/person (croissant + drink). 2️⃣ Fazemos Pão - Padaria Artesanal Throwback charm: Feels like a socialist-era bakery (in the best way). Order: Fresh-pressed juices > their muted matcha. 3️⃣ Âme Café & Patisserie Korean-inspired zen: Packed on Saturdays (chatty regulars included—met a grandpa who honeymooned in 1960s China!). Pro tip: Check Google Maps for pics—too crowded for my camera. 4️⃣ Cenoradas Pinheiros Whimsy alert: Hippo-themed decor (saved my stomach room for next time). #Mintchi Croissant#São Paulo#travel guide#Brazil#Afternoon Tea
