Sud, o Pássaro Verde

Local cuisine

After international acclaim in haute cuisine, Roberta Sudbrack chose to cook as simply as possible: a clay wood oven, organic produce and small-scale fishing, in a house that was once the Visconde de Carandaí's home. The menu changes daily; Veja Rio placed it second for Brazilian food in 2026.
