Rio offers something for everyone when it comes to dining. Although it may not have the same variety of world-class restaurants that you will find in São Paulo, you will never be short on options. Cariocas may be hesitant to take time out from the beach for a meal during the day, but they are known to linger over their nighttime meals while socializing and enjoying good company. This fitness-crazed environment provides plenty of healthy options with salads or sucos (fruit juices) available on most corners. Those sticking to a budget may want to check out the Kilo restaurants, where you serve yourself, buffet-style, to a plethora of options – a good way to introduce yourself to the local dishes. If you are a meat-lover, don’t miss the churrascarias – Brazilians deservedly consider themselves some of the best grillers in the world. For more casual dining (snacks and draft beer) try one of the many chopperias – you will recognize them by they crowds that are spilling out onto the streets. Note that dishes in most restaurants are generally served in portions for two people. |
