At this homey spot, a trip to the bathroom takes you through the kitchen, where Brazilian women prepare far-from-basic dishes like chicken bossa nova (small cubes of chicken sautéed in garlic and white wine) and pan-grilled shell steak au jus. These specialties hail from the African-influenced Bahia section of Brazil. The standout appetizer is a filling helping of pão de queijo,{/I} bread balls stuffed with melted cheese. Instead of a routine flan, wrap up your evening with a flavorful, thick shake of tropical fruits.
