Restaurants: Botecos

drawing by Chico Caruso of Chico and Alaide

BOTECOS:
Chico e Alaide: great lunch specials that serve two, at night delicious shrimp snacks and draft beer. (Leblon, corner of Dias Ferreira and Bartholomeu Mitre)

Jobi: wonderful shrimp empadinhas, again to go with your draft beer! For dinner try a steak and cheese sandwich or "carne desfiado com cebola: beef with onions", among others. Avenida Ataulfo de Paiva, 1166

Academia da Cachaca: this isnt officially a boteco, but has delicious food from the Northeastern region of Brazil and many many options for caipirinhas (dont forget to see my caiprinha post!)Rua Conde Bernadotte, 26

Galetaria Mormaca: a true Brazilian dish and bird. The galeto is a small chicken that they cook rotisserie style and chop up (a little like jerk chicken) for you. Absolutely delicious. You can order accompaniments like french fries, mashed potatoes, rice and beans, you get the idea. The design of this place is fabulous - make certain to wash your hands upstairs to check out the hysterical sinks...
Rua Jardim Botânico, 595

beijos,
Monika
