Aprazível

Aprazível refines the idea that food translates into art. It serves handmade Brazilian cooking with touches of refinement, in a setting that evokes a country house. This stronghold of good food sits in Santa Teresa, one of the most bucolic neighbourhoods in Rio de Janeiro, where the city slows down. Completing the picture, the pleasure of the flavours finds an echo in the wide green landscape woven into the house's particularly charming decor. Tables set among the trees give you a wonderful view of downtown and Guanabara Bay. Aprazível's culinary creativity is rooted in family recipes. But the restaurant does not hesitate to introduce new dishes found by Ana Castilho, from Minas Gerais, through careful hands-on research. The aim is to offer unforgettable sensory experiences, and to that end a level of service honed over more than a decade of practice and learning.
