The 24 Essential Restaurants in Salvador, Brazil
"At this homey restaurant in the Rio Vermelho neighborhood, chef Leila Carreiro serves what she calls “heritage cuisine.” For a decade she has focused on regional dishes, including those typically served as street food in the markets of Bahia and the recipes that locals cherish most, many of them paying homage to African origins. You’ll find peguari (fighting conch), a summertime classic here served with cashew vinaigrette, as well as hauçá rice (coconut and beef rice fried in palm oil with dried shrimp)." - Rafael Tonon
