This city never sleeps. At any time and in any neighborhood you find a supermarket, a bookstore, a pharmacy, a gym and even a church open to the public.
There are thousands of restaurants, bars, bars and places to eat delicious snacks like bread de queijo, a brigadier (one kind of chocolate truffle), a goiabada (Similar to crushed guava) or Beijinho (sweet coconut). Guided by the magazine
Go Where Gastronomy "Os melhores de Sao Paulo 2010" and the comments of the critic Josimar Melo restaurant I visited some of the city. Outside the DOM, Alex Atala great restaurant is recognized as Chef of the Year for the second year, I was fortunate to stay at the Tivoli, where the floor 23 is "Vintetres" the Catalan Sergi Arola restaurant (two Michelin stars ) also have a splendid view of the city offers a recreation of classic English tapas like patatas bravas (spicy tomato sauce and mayonnaise), meatballs tuna, cod fritters impeccable and extensive menu of drinks and cocktails.
Brazil has the largest Japanese colony in the world, nearly two million people, of whom 75% live in Sao Paulo. Inevitably, then, that there are hundreds of sushi bar, especially in the picturesque village where the market Liberdade, streets, shops and people are predominantly Eastern. There reigned for several years the restaurant Kinoshita (first place in Japanese cuisine), now moved south to a more exclusive neighborhood (Vila Nova Conceicao). Kinoshita perfect sushi offers fresh fish and a tasting menu that surprises the proposal for a classic yet innovative cuisine with dishes ranging from miso sauce tuna jumped up seafood topped with salmon eggs and perfumed with truffle oil.
another concept is handled Shintori (third place in Japanese cuisine) restaurant that has more than thirty years old and receives more than a hundred guests in turn, a local sympathetic divided into small living quarters as you want to eat sushi, sashimi or teppanyaki.
The Brazilian cuisine is a large A Gosto representative (first place in its category.) At the forefront is the young chef Ana Luiza Trajano offering dishes from different regions of Brazil with a personal touch. An example: the fish served with mashed banana crunchy chestnuts and lime vinaigrette. A wonderful snack.
French immigration also left its mark. I visited the bistro Le Vin (first place), local relatively small, warm, family atmosphere and packed with diners who keeps a bakery on the side and in front of a bakery. A natural oysters as a starter, a lamb in red wine sauce and a creme brulee frankly left me a memorable souvenir. The wine of Argentina, because on previous occasions the Brazilian came too I was not enthusiastic.
As a final point I want to mention that La Mar, Gastón restaurant, not only in the third place in the category "Best fish restaurant and seafood "but the ceviche, tiraditos, causes and tacu tacus are included among the recommendations of the best food guides in the city. In Sao Paulo
eats well and walks better. You must visit the MASP art museum located in the Avenida Paulista has in its permanent collection, including an enviable number of works of the Impressionists (why we are so behind us, oh my God?). Another visit to be missed is the Museum of Modern Art and the Parque do Ibirapuera where is the art biennial. There is a garden designed by Brazilian artist Burle Marx, works of Oscar Niemeyer, and of course a lovely restaurant in the MAM.
