"Set in an old boozer and very much retaining a pub vibe — old wooden bar, beer on tap, live music — Tia Maria is where to go for drinking food, something Brazil does superbly. The extensive petisco menu features all the classics: salt cod fritters are crisp, with soft mash and discernible fish chunks inside; fried chicken hearts and onions arrive sizzling on cast iron and are irresistible; there are assorted pasteis, the ideal beer pairing. But don’t miss the sensational feijoada: dark as bourguignon, fattier than cassoulet and more complex than both." - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
