Minas Gerais

Located in a superb and vast colonial house, the restaurant Bene Da Flauta, named after a great artist from Ouro Preto, offers all the great classic dishes of Minas Gerais cuisine such as torresmo, tutu mineiro or feijao tropeiro, well concocted. It has one of the most beautiful cellars in the region where Brazilian, Chilean or Argentinean wines rub shoulders with beautiful cachaça references. The room on the second floor offers a superb view of the city.

If café da manha is a Brazilian tradition, the brunch craze hasn't escaped Minas Gerais either. Right in the heart of the small town of Tiradentes, Morada Brunch is a cosy, well-decorated and welcoming place. The many sweet and savoury dishes are prepared with the constant aim of offering maximum pleasure to guests. A daring rocambole (a traditional Tiradentes pastry) with goiaba jam and cheese is a must. Vegetarians will also find excellent mushroom lasagne.
