The 24 Essential Restaurants in Salvador, Brazil
"After spending eight years running the original Jiló in the calm coastal city of Itacaré in Bahia, chef Ícaro Rosa and his wife, Elen Luz, expanded to Salvador with a branch in the Pituba neighborhood. Rosa joins the latest generation of Black chefs reinventing the city’s food scene. The dishes on the menu are contemporary, although they also evoke memories of the chef’s childhood; you may find shrimp tempura with vatapá, seafood carbonara made with octopus and grilled shrimp, and moqueca risotto with fish." - Rafael Tonon
