Local Foodie Tour in Rio de Janeiro

This route lives entirely in Ipanema, the beachfront neighborhood where cariocas eat every day rather than the one they photograph. You'll start on the sand at Ipanema beach with hot fried pastéis and lime-spiked mate, cut through Praça Nossa Senhora da Paz beneath the shade trees near Tom Jobim's statue, and end at a table with clay-pot moqueca carioca simmered in coconut milk and dendê. In between: Amazonian cupuaçu and graviola at a corner casa de sucos, and sub-zero draft beer with coxinhas at a neighborhood boteco. Your guide traces the indigenous and immigrant threads connecting all of it, from Tupi-Guarani cassava to the farofa on the table. You leave knowing how Ipanema eats and able to order like you live there. Made for food-curious travellers, couples and solo visitors.
