"On Praça das Flores, where dinners spill into the park with glasses of wine, this share-plate charmer blends the Brazilian-and-Belgian owners’ love of travel into an easygoing menu. Think creamy camembert in puff pastry with thyme honey, tuna tartare with avocado and mango, and moreish croquettes de crevette, backed by a strong selection of local natural wines. By day it morphs into a cozy cafe for tomato soup with cheese toast, excellent coffee, and what might be the best pistachio croissant—often with the owners chatting with neighbors as they pour." - Abigail Malbon
