After our Sugar Loaf trip, we went to lunch at a famous restaurant, Aprazivel, in the colorful district where many artists live. Nico Niman, who also works for TV One and lives in Rio, was a helpful guide during our sightseeing.

I had the popular Brazilian drink to start, my favorite round cheese bread, Fresh roasted heart of Palm on a Bamboo tile, sweet potatoe puree with sun died tomatoes, cheese and cashew nuts and tropical fish in orange sauce with coconut and cashew nut rice with roasted bananas. OMG!
