During the day it is actually too hot to think about any main meals, so Casa de Pedra might be the right place to go. It is a a very colourful spot surrounded by greenery, with the nice view of the life on the street, where you can enjoy your breakfast or snack in a shady backyard.

Favorite Dish: Their speciality is handmade ice cream that comes in flavours of different tropical fruits as acai, graviola, mango, pineapple and also the creamy ones as chocolate, coconut, brazil nut, tapioca. Acai na tigela, served with granola and banana, is very delicious, and worth trying is also tapioca, filled either with coconut, chocolate, banana or cheese... And for those who are afraid of trying something new, they have different sandwiches and good expresso.

Tia Angelita is famous for her delicious torta de banana (banana cake). But that's not all. She also makes excellent tapioca and cocada! I have discovered the place already on my first visit of Jeri and since then I went there every day to have one of those delights :)

Favorite Dish: I can't choose only one as everything is heavenly:

- torta de banana
- tapioca, a dessert made from treated and dried manioc; it's fried into tortilla shape and filled with either sweet or salty ingredients: shredded coconut, bananas, chocolate, condensed milk, cheese... My favourite is the one with the combination of coconut and cheese.
- cocada, a traditional Brazilian dessert, made on a base of freshly grated coconut

Ahh, yummy!!

My local friends advised me to try this restaurant where they themselves use to go. It is located on one of the side streets and this is the reason for not being so touristy and expensive. The ambience is cosy and relaxed. You most probably meet other visitors or local people, have a conversation, then another drink... and stay longer as you planed.

They offer everything from soups, sea food, meat and pasta.

Favorite Dish: I found the best choice prato feito (dish of the day) which consists of fried fish or moqueca (traditional food from Bahia), accompanied with vegetable, rice, beans and farofa (toasted manioc flour), all together for 6 - 8 RS. Caipirinha was also cheaper compared to some other places, one more reason to have another one :)

At sunset the end of the main road will be filled with drinks vendors, all of them calling out "Hey Amigo!" so draw your attention. They are all very good and they all serve the same drinks: the classic Caipirinha of course, and some other great mixes. I highly recommend Capeta (kind of a girlie drink) mainly made with condensed milk, coconut milk, guarana powder, cinnamon, cocoa, and vodka.
This place is great for socializing as well, and for learning where the parties take place!
All the drinks cost between 3 and 4 reais. If you make friends with one of the vendors, you might get a discount :)

At lunchtime or at sunset, this is a very nice place where to eat or to buy something to have on the beach. They offer sandwiches, ice-creams, yoghurt with granola, and the Brazilian famous Açai na Tigela. This is açai ice-cream with granola and bananas. Açai is a tiny fruit that comes from the Amazon. It's said to be very energetic. They also have Tapioca, another typical Brazilian food, filled with chocolate, cheese, etc.

All the restaurants located on the main street are totally overpriced. You won't spend less than 25 reais per person there. But if you walk along other roads, Rua del Forro for example, you will see some plain looking restaurants where you can eat a very complete meal for not more than 8 reais!
The most typical dish is called "Prato Feito", which consists of fried fish, salad, rice and beans. This dish costs 5 or 6 reais.

Aunque no estemos en Italia, este sitio merece la pena no sólo por su ambiente, sino también por las pizzas que hacen. Muy buena relación de precio/calidad. Tb recomendables: café expresso con pão de queijo o açaí con banana.

Favorite Dish: Pizzas, definitivamente.
