"Every year, our inspectors are surprised by the development of the gastronomic scene in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo, which is constantly moving and where the offer is evolving very rapidly," commented Michael Ellis, Michelin Guide International Director." Chefs are continuing their efforts to move the standard of the offer forward by playing with aromas, textures, and flavours to offer customers new experiences while maintaining a particular focus on value for money."

The guide also sees 33 Bib Gourmand awards, including eight new entries. They are Bottega del Vino in Rio, and Bistrot de Paris, A Casa do Porco, Niaya, La Peruana Cevicheria, Oiu, Tanit and TonTon in São Paulo. Bib Gourmand, named after the official company mascot for the Michelin Group Bibendum, is a rating that recognises friendly establishments that serve good food at moderate prices.
