We celebrated my wife’s birthday and the whole evening was just perfect… We didn’t know, that brasilian sparkling wines are that good! … as a surprise they served us baked banana with vanilla ice cream, chocolate and guiaba sauce and a delicious mango-ginger coulis… We highly recommend this restaurant!!
