Bolinha Restaurante — Restaurant in Região Imediata de São Paulo

This is my first time having feijoada and Bolinha knocked it out of the park for me. They served an amuse of sorts when I arrived, a tiny cup of ..i think the thick broth left over from cooking the beans. It also happened to be a somewhat cold evening so that really hit the spot. It was rich, creamy, savory and utterly delicious.

The waiters didn't speak English, so it was all Google translate and hand gestures. But everyone comes for the one thing... Except i should have asked them to just give me the classic. They brought out everything.. Which was tooo much. But the cabbage was delicious, the feijoada of course was amazing. So...

The place for feijoda in Sao Paulo, the traditional Brazilian dish with black bean and pork stew. Available in light and traditional, it really depends on what part of the pork you want added to the dish. The traditional dish includew the "cheaper" versions of the pig. The feijoda is served with a portion of rice, green cabage and sausage. The feijoda can be topped with farofa, toasted cassava flour. The interior is traditional while the service is efficient and friendly. A portion for two of traditonal feijoda plus two coffees added up to 357 reales...

This place brags about having the best feijoada in São Paulo, and after eating here I could believe it.

Came for lunch and the wait staff took great care of me. Went for the “light” option, which is a little less offal and a little more traditional meat. The portions are generous to say the least-so much meat, rice, beans, greens and other accompaniments.

But quantity didn’t mean sacrificing quality-everything was super flavorful and each component was well seasoned.

And it was, of course, served with a caipirinha.

Would love...
