Da Terra Restaurant

The 7 Best Restaurants In Bethnal Green - London - The Infatuation

"Set within the grand, Edwardian Town Hall Hotel, Da Terra’s dining room is elegant in a very minimalist, fancy-casual east London way. Local seasonal produce is treated with the utmost care, blending them into Brazilian delicacies to create an homage to Brazil, Britain, and Italy, where chef Rafael Cagali’s ancestors hail from. Prawns might be served with palm hearts, chicken with tart tucupí, a brilliant baba made with cachaça instead of rum. Sure this kind of cooking comes at significant cost, but this isn’t a stuffy old-school establishment, and, perhaps befitting the location, wines tend towards low-intervention." - jake missing, tome morrissy swan
