Le Pain Quotidien — Restaurant in Região Imediata de São Paulo

Here in the trendy Vila Madalena district of Sao Paulo there is art in the air and everywhere also expressed by the many wall paintings on the house. There is a nice patio at the street next to the entry to this coffee shop and there is a stylish interior which invites to come in. After having chosen your pastry from the showcase you can then have a seat either downstairs on a huge table next to the corner or on one of the table upstairs.

The staff is very friendly and willing to help you. I had a delicious Cappuccino and a little pistachio tart, which was very fluffy and tasty, and together with the refreshing Guarana soft drink it was a very good choice. The interior is stylish and colorful at the same time and the atmosphere her is very relaxing.

From Sao Paulo with Love! Dr. Dr....

I hailed to the manager, we locked eyes, he ignored me and walked away.

Later was rude when I asked for a new...

My brother went today to this bakery to get food they deny service to him. He is a tall and white Latin American. He greet the woman in Portuguese saying Bom día she went on to speak fast in Portuguese. My brother said despacio or anyone that speaks English or Spanish. She said no. Only Brazilians. My brother even tried using google translate but no! She basically did a racist profile and treated him in a discriminatory way. This is not right and should be dealt with. Do not go this bakery ever! No matter the language or skin tone nobody should be treated in such way. Very unpleasant to hear...
