🍣 Continuing Rio’s Culinary Journey: More Must-Try Eateries 🌟 🇵🇪 Figs La Carioca | Peruvian Flavors with a Twist 🐟 Culinary Vibe: Claims Peruvian roots, but feels more fusion—except for the spices! Signature Ceviche comes in platters (fresh fish marinated in lime, served with corn & sweet potatoes), but personal fave? Fig 6’s Tartar—creamy fish mixed with avocado, just the right kick. One bite: 😋✨ 💡Pro Tip: Pair with a Pisco Sour🍹, Peru’s national cocktail! 🍣 Fig | Nameless All-You-Can-Eat Japanese Joint 🇯🇵 The Good & the Slow: Decent sashimi and sushi, but snail pace⏳. Saved by smiling staff😇—order the tempura and teriyaki chicken, solid for Rio’s pricey Japanese scene. 🌉 Fig 8 | Botafogo’s Sugarloaf View Restaurant 🍴 View Over Flavor: Direct Pão de Açúcar views🌄! Food’s average (steak, Caesar salad), but prices are kind (mains ~80 BRL). Perfect for budget travelers who want insta-worthy backdrops📸. Best Time: Come for sunset—views make up for basic bites. 🥧 Confeitaria Colombo | Historic Dessert Redemption🍰 The Redemption Arc: First visit? Tooth-achingly sweet😖. This time? Walnut tart + ice cream slapped! Crispy crust, caramelized walnuts, vanilla ice cream to cut the sugar—finally got the hype✨. Palace Vibes: Gorgeous European-style decor, ideal for tea. Avoid tour groups during peak hours. 🌟 Final Tips & Hashtags Most spots cluster in Copacabana/Botafogo—rainy days? Pick a view spot to make the most of it☔. Dive into Peruvian-Brazilian fusion; all-you-can-eat Japanese is a carb lover’s dream. #RioDeJaneiro #BrazilTravel #PeruvianCuisine #JapaneseFood #RioRestaurants #FoodieInRio #SweetTooth #TravelEats
