"Originally located in Mooca, often called the "most Italian of São Paulo neighborhoods," Borgo Mooca is now set in Santa Cecília. It captures the charm of simple cuisine and natural wines in a softly lit dining room, complete with caramel-toned leather and a terrace. The menu is a fusion of technique and Italian soul, with a hint of Brazilian influence. Think dishes like beef tartare with velvety mushroom fondue and lard; zucchini flower stuffed with crab bobó; picanha with tagliatelle in smoked butter; porchetta lasagna; and spaghetti with anchovies. Borgo Mooca exemplifies traditional Italian cuisine with a touch of creative freedom, focusing on seasonal products while offering some contemporary takes on classics." - The MICHELIN Guide
