Very cool and hipstery inside, but service is disorganized…read more This coffee shop and eatery is one of the largest in the area, so there are a lot of people coming in and out. The outside, as well as the inside, is very inviting. There are hostesses that seat you with a menu, and eventually a server will come around to take your order. The menu is pretty extensive; they serve juices, smoothies, coffees, breakfast, brunch, and linner. I ordered a Café Cultura (which was basically a mocha with Baileys), and a croissant. It took quite some time to get either of my items, noticing my croissant was given to the wrong table, and later on my coffee doing the same. I think the delivering system is disorganized, as well as the communication with the front and back of the house. The coffee tasted good, but was scalding hot. Literally, my tongue is missing some tastebuds. The croissant was nothing out of the norm. To pay, they give you this card that had your order on it and you bring it to the register to pay before you leave. I'm telling you this just in case you don't speak Portuguese, as many of them don't speak English.

We had a full meal at this branch and the food was excellent. They also serve beers and wines.

The waiter kindly notified this substitution while ordering so there were not surprised when the food came out to the tables. This is a kind of professional attention that is harder to find in Brazil. The setting here is a little interesting since it aside a co-working cooperative, in which it shares its bathrooms (past the sliding door into the lobby of the coop, a unisex toilet). Parking can be busy with four seasons restaurant and the garden shop in the same parking lot.

I stumbled upon this cafe on a windy winter day when I was a bit underdressed for the temperature…read more I saw a sign for chicken soup (caldo de galinha) in the window and thought it would be the perfect thing to warm me up, and it was. The soup was delicious and served piping hot. I decided to also get a cup of hot chocolate, expecting chocolate milk, and got a cup of hot chocolate pudding that was amazing. Since it was cold and windy outside and I was in no hurry, I pulled out a book and took my time. It's a nice place to stop for a quick, or slow, lunch. They have various pasteles, i.e. meat filled pastries, and an assortment of chocolates to choose from as the name would suggest. If you're close and hungry, stop by. It's not quite worth driving across town to get to though.
