Sao Paulo 🇧🇷 Italian cuisine | The joy of cheese bombs

🏠 Cantina do Piero il Vero 🗺️ Rua Haddock Lobo, 728 - Cerqueira César, São Paulo - SP, 01414-000 Paulista’s Italian Carb Paradise 🇮🇹 Came here on a mission for creamy mushroom bacon pasta—and this spot did not disappoint! Perfect for groups, since most dishes are 2+ servings (though they’ll do 60% portions for solo diners). 🍝 The Cheese-Filled Glory Tagliarini a Mastrotti: My colleague’s order was a cheese lover’s dream 🍕! Think noodles swimming in a rich cheese sauce—creamy but not heavy, somehow. The kind of dish that makes you forget calories exist. Spaghetti a Carbonara: My pick was solid but less mind-blowing. Crispy bacon saved the day, but the round noodles were a bit too al dente for my taste (chewy bordering on hard). 🥖 Pre-Meal Perks The complimentary bread looked Instagram-ready with its crusty exterior, but tasted exactly like classic Italian bread—nutty, chewy, and perfect for sopping up leftover sauce. 🍗 Meat Lovers Alert Neighboring tables had massive plates of roasted chicken and steak that looked divine, but portions are huge (think family-style). Pro tip: Bring 3+ friends to split the meat dishes! 💰 Price Tag 117 R$ per person, but worth it for the authentic Italian vibes. Great for team lunches or carb-loading with fellow pasta addicts 🇮🇹. #ItalianCuisine #SaoPauloEats #CheesePasta #GroupDining #PaulistaArea
