🌿 Amalfi Coast Vibes in Itaim Bibi: A Mediterranean Garden Oasis! 🌟
Tucked in Itaim Bibi, this Mediterranean garden restaurant screams Italian summer with its fresh, breezy Amalfi Coast-inspired decor. Think pastel hues, leafy greenery, and sunlit outdoor seating—perfect for lazy weekend brunches with friends or dreamy Instagram snaps. 🍤 Starters That Wow: Sweet Meets Savory 🦐 We tried two standout appetizers: pumpkin-filled ravioli with shrimp and salmon carpaccio with fruit jam. The salmon stole the show—thin slices of fish paired with a tangy-sweet jam, creating a refreshing flavor bomb. The pumpkin ravioli was tasty too, though a bit dry toward the end (pro tip: ask for extra sauce!). 🍟 Vacation on a Plate: Crispy Potato Heaven 🍟 For fry lovers, the grilled potato wedges are a must-order. Served in a rustic, beachy presentation, they’re crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and paired perfectly with tangy ketchup. Simple, satisfying, and very Instagrammable. 🥗 Healthy & Delicious: The Green Goddess Salad 🥑 Their superfood salad is a feast of chia seeds, avocado, asparagus, and grilled chicken—all tossed in a light lemon dressing. It’s fresh, filling, and guilt-free, ideal for those craving a “clean” meal without sacrificing flavor. 🥩 Perfectly Grilled Beef + Tropical Twist 🥔 The grilled beef steak was cooked to perfection, juicy and tender. Served with cassava puree instead of classic mashed potatoes, it added a subtle, earthy sweetness and a chunkier texture that complemented the rich meat. A welcome departure from the ordinary! 🍹 Cocktails & Ambiance: Sunlit Sipping 🌞 As a bar-restaurant hybrid, their craft cocktails are a highlight. Try the floral gin spritz or fruity Aperol-based drink—best enjoyed outdoors in the afternoon sun. The staff is friendly and attentive, making the whole experience feel like a mini vacation. 💴 Budget-Friendly Bliss: ~100 Reais per Person With reasonable prices and generous portions, it’s ideal for a relaxed day out. Go for lunch to soak in the sunshine, or visit in the evening for a cozy, lit-up garden vibe. #Brazil #SãoPaulo #MediterraneanCuisine #ItaimBibi #GardenRestaurant
