• You won't be disappointed!

Especially if you were having a hard time as a vegan in Rio to find something suitable (without having to tweak your dish in another non-plant-based joint). Go here if you want to treat yaself! At first I wasn't sure if every bit on the menu was animal-cruelty-free (nor if all was organic, if that's your criteria), but to be perfectly honest I relied on my gut feeling & just went for it. Had a feast with a plate by weight, a 'living sprouts juice' & a fruit salad. I cannot recall the names of each meal, but everything I tried was delicioso! One of the owners (the guy at the pay desk) speaks English & was very helpful. As others pointed out, the venue is a tad bit hard to find & may seem a bit odd. Also, it's not inside the fancy neighbourhoods of the likes of Copacabana, Ipanema or say Botafogo (where you might reside), but what counts in the end is the quality you get for a reasonable price & the satisfaction of your starving stomach =) Therefore worth a trip 100%. In fact I was so stoked by the food, I even bought some take out to save for later & was so strenghtend by it, I walked all the way back to my apartment in Laranjeiras (roughly 1h by espadrilles)!
