The 35 Essential São Paulo Restaurants
"Luiz Filipe Souza leads a new generation of talented chefs in the city. At Evvai, his first restaurant as a partner and head chef, he showcases modern Italian-accented dishes with worldwide inspirations. His creativity shines the most in inventive recreations of classics, like his take on the caprese salad (highlighting the textures of different tomatoes combined with house-made mozzarella) or the tournedos Rossini in which the foie gras is covered in onion molasses and then grilled in wood, delivered with a side of guava seasoned with juniper and watercress. Be sure to try the outstanding spaghetti with cauliflower and thick, flavorful chicken broth." - Rafael Tonon
