Casa do Sardo

World cuisineLocals' pick

Chef Silvio Podda cooks Sardinian food, from inland and coast, far from the beach zone in São Cristóvão. Order the suckling pig with malloreddus pasta and pecorino. It is on Time Out's list of the city's best restaurants, but few visitors make the trip north.
