Rio Niterói




They say the best thing about Niterói is the view... but that's mean, it is such a pretty place... It's a nice outlook though, great angle of the Sugarloaf and the Christ. This is Camboinhas, a very pleasant beach where you can eat fresh fish in kiosks in the sand.


Mercado de Peixe São Pedro (Saint Peter Fish Market) in Niterói is where you can find the best fish in Rio. Chefs go there at 5 a.m. to buy the most fresh ones. I went there, obviously much later than that (I guess I'm not such a great chef... hehe) to get shrimp for my very famous grandma's recipe of Bobó, a traditional dish from Bahia. This will be my birthday dinner menu :)
