Let’s Get Rio

Endearingly known as “Cariocas”, the people of Rio de Janeiro enjoy a culinary culture that’s closely tied to Africa and Portugal, presenting additional influences from Spain and Italy.

Rio’s unique location in Brazil offers the best landscapes nature has to offer – sun, sea, pristine beaches, mountains, and the Carioca spirit of its inhabitants! The very inspiration behind Chef Gustavo’s newest menu.

DISCOVER: Bahia

Diverse, colourful and energetic, the coastal state of Bahia is home to Brazil’s most represented cuisine, reflected in everything from the region’s rich seafood stew Moqueca, iconic black-eyed pea Abara, and the national dish Feijoada.

A significant month in Brazil’s cultural calendar – with their National Independence Day falling on the 7th and Cachaça Day swiftly following on the 13th – the spirit of Brazil comes alive in September, and UMA NOTA is bringing the celebrations and flavours of Salvador to Hong Kong’s one and only Afro-Brazilian brunch!
