"Da Terra isn’t explicitly a Brazilian restaurant. Then again, it isn’t not a Brazilian restaurant. Probably Britain’s most low-key two-Michelin-starred restaurant is run by the unassuming Rafael Cagali, a Simon Rogan allum who’s lived in London for years. The multi-course tasting menu features some of the most creative, subversive cooking around. Brazilian influences, both overt and less tangible, are everywhere. A taleggio doughnut that, basically, tastes like the best pão de queijo ever. Succulent chicken hearts; Arctic char ceviche swimming in tucupi, a sweetcorn-yellow sauce made from fermented manioc that’s popular in Amazonian cooking. Cagali’s moqueca might piss off traditionalists, but the foam is deep and complex with coconut milk, chilli and dendȇ palm oil. This isn’t one of London’s best Brazilian restaurants, it’s one of London’s best restaurants." - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
