My favorite is the smoked salmon sandwich on a potpurri bagel but the chocolate bagel with Nutella is a close second. I have taken bagels home from here several times too because they freeze and toast well. I'm so happy to finally find a great place that does real bagel sandwiches!

Personally, I loved this place. (side note- I love lox, and salmon so a place called 'Lox Deli'…read moresuits me well). I had 2 hours to kill, so I brought a book and sat outside in the sun sipping on my coffee. I ordered some scrambled eggs with a side of the lox in virgin olive oil with dill. It was so good, I almost ordered another portion but stopped myself. That would have been a LOT of lox, as the portion size was quite sufficient. My waitress was especially nice. She knew exactly when to let me be- reading to myself- and somehow noticed the moment that I needed something and was at my side asking how she could help . As I was leaving, they were pulling out all of their brunch stuff. It looks like it is an all you can eat buffet of tasty healthy things like light-quiches and fruits and different types of salads. I would like to try it out next time I am in town.

Brunch is a relatively new concept that has begun to become a ritual with us Paulistanos - it's a…read morevery American thing that has trickled down and quite a few places have started a local version of the brunch or rather a bigger breakfast. One of these places is Lox Deli. One fine Saturday, I decided to try their breakfast (or brunch) menu and I was not at all disappointed - fresh house-made bagels with cream cheese, fruit salad with granola and great service - this place keeps growing on me..recommend a visit for breakfast/brunch which they serve all day. The highlight of Lox Deli definitely is the in-house bakery they have and its one of the best bagels I gave had in the city. It's relatively empty on Saturday mornings, so you can sit down and have a relaxed & savoury breakfast - the service is attentive, not pushy. I haven't seen big groups in here for breakfast - it's generally couples or single people and they do allow pets on the patio area. The coziness of the place, the attentive service and the great quality definitely make this one of those place to return. The only caveat that Lox Deli has that it is closed on Sundays - come on ! Sunday is world brunch day !!!

I have a thing for coffee...and Beluga definitely got me good…read more Located in Vila Buarque region, this clean, minimalist coffee shop certainly serves some of the best coffee in the city and to go with the coffee the bagels and the chocolate cookies are so damn good ! I have been there twice and tried different parties of coffee - both times made using Aeropress, and each time the coffee was excellent - besides the flavors, the temperature they serve it is comfortable and their presentation is clean. Beluga has certainly got me drinking my coffee in clear glasses instead of the traditional coffee mugs. The place is small, white tables, basic seating facilities and free wi-fi - you do see a lot of MacBooks flipped open with people talking in hushed tones or just tapping away at their keyboards. The background music is pleasant. I really like the service here, the baristas know that they are doing and they are quite polite, there is no service fee on the sales - the service and the ambience along with the great coffee makes me want to go back.

What can you expect by that? Something you will not find at any Starbucks as an experience. Food options are basically small bites to enjoy while having a sip of coffee extracted by using different techniques. They also sell HARIO appliances for brewing your own coffee back home and have your barista moment. Oh! And they have a range of labels of craft beers for those that are not into coffee.

Não me contive e tive que experimentar a filial de Pinheiros na mesma semana haha…read more Fui com uma amiga umas 6 da tarde e conseguimos lugar no balcão tranquilamente. É pequeno, mas nem se compara ao tamanho do Z Deli do Jardins. A maioria dos burgers são diferentes também e nesse eles fazem drinks (uhuuul!!!). Experimentei o chilli burger por causa da apresentação. Ele era bem gostoso, mas como não sou tããão fã de comida mexicana, pediria um outro burger mais convencional mesmo. Minha amiga pediu o Louis Burger, parecido com o Minetta do Jardins, mas ele vem no pão de forma e outro queijo, não o cheddar. Era muito bom, mas preferi o Minetta. Eles tinham alguns drinks próprios e como amo gin, pedi o Gin Garden. A apresentação era super bonitinha e o drink era bem suave e refrescante. Ótimo pro verão e dar uma relaxada! Eles tem vários com Jack Daniels que pareciam interessantes, pena que não gosto muito de whiskey. O restaurante não ganha 5 estrelas pela falta de ar condicionado e valet. A área pode ficar bem cheia e pode ser difícil achar vaga na rua.

The space is pretty small, but I like the minimalist/hip design and I kept wondering, "oh, what's that song" whenever the DJ played a new track. Love all the Little Dragon he was playing. Cozy spot for a happy hour and if you have a dog, you guys can hang out at an outdoor table, when it isn't raining, of course.

So I had been wanting to go to Naïve for a long time - it has good yelp reviews and some decent…read morerecommendations - so when Yelp decided to have their December cocktail hour at this place, I was one of the first ones to sign on. The place is unassuming, white lime washed walls, simple with a basic bar and a spartan living room decoration - however one of the serious problems at Naïve is the lack of quality in their drinks. We ordered soem jars of drinks - a Clericot, a Sangria & Mojito - they were all 1 litre jars but quite watered down so its basically as good as drinking fruit juice at your grandma's place. However I decided to be bolder and ordered a Gin & Tonic which they have 2 versions - one made with domestic gin and another with Tanqueray - I ordered the Tanqueray (R$ 23,00) one and when the drink came, I was left wondering as to whether the bartender had just sent me tonic water and forgotten to add the gin. I though I was being picky but when my other friends tried a sip of it, they too thought the same so I went back to the bar and complained to the bartender - as per his opinion he had put in the standard 60ml of gin and it was "fine", decided not to argue and went back to sip my tonic water - he came over later with a shot of gin ("complimentary" as per him) so that I should add it to my drink which did make the drink a whole lot bearable but if I hadn't complained, I would be drinking Tonic water. The music indoors is cool but loud so while you're trying to chat with your friends, you have to hike up your volume to be heard. I wouldn't recommend a visit to Naïve unless you want to drink bottled beer but for that there are better places in the vicinity.
