Barú Marisquería - Review - Jardins - São Paulo - The Infatuation
"There’s a pan-Latin American vibe to this alleyway restaurant, named after the Colombian island where its chef learnt to swim. The focus is on seafood, with influences from around the continent, resulting in dishes like Colombian patacones and Peruvian ceviche. The trick is to order at least one thing from each of the four main sections, loosely translated to “crunchy,” “raw and spicy,” “grilled,” and “pot-cooked.” The cooks are a dab hand at balancing sour, salt, and spice, so the scallop ceviche sings, especially with its crispy chili sauce reminiscent of Chinese lao gan ma. Don’t miss the grilled squid or octopus cooked over coals, or the mussels in coconut milk and pisco sauce with chunks of crispy arepa. Killer cocktails add to the fun." - Tomé Morrissy-Swan
