Upon leaving my car at the shop for a wallet flush, of all things, I found this place using the…read moreYelp app on my cell phone. The first thing I noticed upon arriving was the lack of long lines to get a table (yay!), a rarity for São Paulo boulangeries. After passing through a gift shop section, you get to the boulangerie part. The nicest place to sit is way in the back, which has a patio feel to it. The menu has all the usual breakfast items, including croissants, which are HUGE. They also have lunch items. Overall, it's high on "joie de vivre" and low on "muvuca".

Great grocery store! Really big but can be a bit crowded. I love the deli section, it's affordable…read moreand delicious. There's 2 floors but I found all my groceries and household goods on the first floor so can't say what's upstairs.

Food was mediocre, unflavorful and salty. Service wasnt…read moregood, when I made reservation in person, a girl walked me around to choice our table that night. She assured that table will be available for us. We got there that evening someone else was in that table and we were asked tonsit in a 13"x 13" table, I wasn't happy. I asked to moved our table, omg speaking of communication was bad. I get it Brazilian vs English. The person who help me then spoke English fluently and server also. Ambiance was loud for a fine dining, we hardly can speak to each other.

I love combing the aisles for snacks, soaps, salts and other lovely non-liquid items that I can consume immediately or take back in my carry-on luggage. Quitanda is São Paulo's to Whole Foods. I was a fan before even stepping inside having sampled their fresh-pressed juices (especially the abacaxi com hortelã!) at a friend's place. Pay attention to the exotic (if you're not from Brazil) fruit selection at Quitanda - I found two of the biggest passion fruits I've ever seen there (and I used one to make maracujá #infusedwater - so good!) I was also impressed with the array of soap and picked up a local honey scented one to take home. This Pinheiros grocery store is definitely worth a nosey if you're curious what healthy Paulistas feast on.

My favorite place to buy groceries, Quitanda has bucked the trend of filling the center of the…read moresupermarket with crap and hiding the fresh food on the sides. Going there you can't help but leave with bags full of fresh produce which is beautifully displayed front and center in the store. At lunch they serve a healthy buffet which is a bit over priced, but I can overlook that, because I am the type who would rather buy one of their sushi to go plates and go eat it in the park. They have a great selection of frozen foods for celiacs and vegans in the back next to the organic foods. The bakery is pretty good, and the juices are awesome. It's the closest thing I've found to Trader Joe's in Brazil.

The only thing I could eat were crappy, bland scrambled eggs in a discussing tapioca tortilla shell. There is no ground black pepper in this establishment to make the eggs taste better either; only Tabasco sauce. As far as drinks go, they do have juice but ZERO dairy-free milk choices for coffee/espresso. It's like they're living in 1999. The founder needs to get with the program. I would've purchased much more had they had any options I could actually eat/drink.
